The Invention of Women: Making an African Sense of Western Gender Discourses by Oyèrónkẹ́ Oyěwùmí

4.75

It was a study into the Yoruba people and the imposition of gender onto a people who, previous to colonization, had no concept of gender within their society, breaking the idea of gender, with the subjugation of women as a manifestation of it, as universal and timeless. Gave me lots to think and talk about with peers.
