<p>to the root</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;Feminist radicalism&#039;&#039;&#039; is defined in [[Joanna Russ]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[What Are We Fighting For?]]&#039;&#039;, p.20., as:<br /> :the oppressed taking their own oppression and their own understanding of their oppression as primary and refusing to bow to any intellectual authority except their own precisely because, in a society corrupt enough to practice oppression, &quot;intellectual traditions&quot; are all too apt to be corrupt too.<br /> <br /> The term &quot;radical feminist&quot; may refer to either feminist radicalism or [[radical feminism]].<br /> <br /> Both approaches take &quot;radical&quot; to mean &quot;going at the root of the problem&quot;, whereas antifeminists use &quot;radical&quot; interchangeably with &quot;extreme&quot;, as a derogatory term.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Feminism]]</div>
