Racial Hierarchies In Latin America That Affected My Black Experience, Tiye Gardner Apr 2019

Racial Hierarchies In Latin America That Affected My Black Experience, Tiye Gardner

Using gender as a category of analysis, my thesis explores Partizankas’ legacy and their contributions in the National Liberation Movement (NLM) in WWII (1941- 1945) and post-war nation building. I argue that the organizational framework of the Anti-Fascist Women’s Front (AWF) under the guidance of the Communist Party …
