Definition

  • Postcolonial feminist theory considers the critical importance feminist politics play in the struggle against colonization while simultaneously racializing traditional feminist theory. As an academic discipline, postcolonial feminist theory is invested in revisioning, remembering, and critically interrogating colonialism through a feminist lens.
