White Saviorism Zine, Bree Finnegan
White Saviorism Zine, Bree Finnegan
Student Zines
I am interested in the topic of dominant caste, Savarna, saviorism toward Dalit women and White saviorism towards Black women.
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.
I want you, readers, to understand that these two communities may seem very different, because one is about race and one is about caste, but they are actually very similar …

Hi friends! My name is G and I'm a college freshman earning my B.S.in Behavioral Neuroscience and a minor in Psychology.

A Daughter Of The Samurai, Etsu Inagaki Sugimoto
Zea E-Books Collection
Born in 1874 the youngest daughter of a samurai and former daimyo—a feudal prince under the Takugawa shogunate—Etsu Inagaki grew up surrounded by ghosts of an aristocratic military lineage. Having fought on the losing side in the wars that installed the Meiji emperor, the Inagaki family was reduced in power, status, and wealth but not in pride or devotion to its traditional roles and customs. Etsu’s upbringing and education were conservative and old-fashioned, guided by the Shinto and Buddhist beliefs her family held. The samurai virtues of honor, stoicism, and sacrifice applied to daughters and wives as well as sons …

The Legacy Book In America, 1664–1792, Roxanne Harde, Lindsay Yakimyshyn

They were a popular and influential form of women’s discourse that distilled the ideologies of the religious establishment into practical and emotional lessons for lay persons, especially the young.
This collection draws together legacy texts written by colonial American women and girls: five mother’s legacy books and two legacies by children, organized here chronologically. These legacies were written in anticipation of dying, making awareness of death central to the …
