White Saviorism Zine, Bree Finnegan May 2022

White Saviorism Zine, Bree Finnegan

Student Zines

I am going to explain what saviorism looks like for Black women and then what saviorism looks like for Dalit women. I will then compare the two and show the similarities between them. I am also going to provide the reasons why saviorism is bad and how to detect it.
