Biracial woman states we are women before we are Black...
...and multiple black women disagree pointing out that they view themselves as more oppressed for their racial identity than their gender. This dialogue occurred on tiktok btw, but it really had me thinking, because I too believe women are more oppressed due to gender. This is also arguably a questionable point to me, because biracial people (women in this case) can identify as biracial/ mixed/ mulatto or black, so they would be black, too. I notice many of the responses were 'we have it harder' or 'you don't go through what we go through', but it feels like we are always struggling with this lack of empathy from our monoracial counterparts. I can empathize with people across multiple aspects of their identity, yet people view us as privileged, which is a hugely inaccurate value judgment.
In my opinion, the oppression that women face globally is possibly more significant than the oppression people face due to ethnicity.
Please note: I am not claiming all men are oppressors either, as men can experience significant social issues as well due to their gender.
