Abstract

This dialectic between experience and politics sheds important light on the possibility of building coalitions among disadvantaged groups. Such coalitions are possible when social groups use a normative-critical understanding of power to interrogate the assumptions and demands associated with their own and others’ experience-based claims. Doing this allows ABMS’ supporters to recognize that they, like their feminist critics, make emancipatory and oppressive experiential claims. They are consequently united by a conundrum - how to reap the benefits without succumbing to the limitations of their respective claims. The end of this chapter concretizes this vision of coalition building by detailing a specific circumstance - a roundtable on ABMS in which supporters and critics assess the risks and rewards of constructing black boys as intersectionally oppressed.
围绕基于经验的政治建立进步联盟
经验与政治之间的这种辩证关系,为在弱势群体之间建立联盟的可能性提供了重要启示。当社会群体使用对权力的规范批判理解来质疑与他们自己和他人基于经验的主张相关的假设和要求时,这种联盟是可能的。这样做可以让ABMS的支持者认识到,他们和他们的女权主义批评者一样,提出了解放和压迫的经验主张。因此,他们被一个难题联合起来——如何在不屈服于各自主张的限制的情况下获得利益。本章的最后,通过详细描述一个具体的情况,将联盟建设的愿景具体化——一个关于ABMS的圆桌会议,在这个圆桌会议上,支持者和批评者评估了将黑人男孩构建为交叉压迫的风险和回报。
