Genders and Sexualities in History: Modernity, Violence, Women's Voices

Kimura, Maki

It argues that the system can be understood as the mechanism of the intersectional oppression of gender, race, class and colonialism, while illuminating the importance of testimonies of victim-survivors as the site where women recover and gain their voices and agencies.
