social justice vs. civil rights
"Civil Rights/Gender Rights (a reinforcement of the nation/state)" vs. "social justice (a challenging of the nation/state)" (from Women of Color Blog � A quick note on inclusivity…). POC = people of color, WOC = women of color.
The fight for “inclusivity” and “diversity” also helps to position discussions of race/gender as something that can be addressed without any significant change in the hearts of those in power or the structure of oppression itself. In other words, POC, queers, females, trans, disabled folks can become soldiers who rape and set girls on fire JUST LIKE WHITE DUDES! White dudes don’t have to actually STOP raping and setting girls on fire.
