Angry Women

2000V. Vale

4.9/5

DIAMANDA GALAS: The original nature of woman's voice has always been tied to witches and the shamanistic experience--the witch as transvestite/transsexual having the power of both male and female.LYDIA LUNCH: They're killing too much of the earth and not enough of the people! Another reversal of intelligence.bell hooks: In Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye, there's a moment when the little girl, a victim of rape/incest, says to another little girl whom she wants to be angry, "Anger is better -- there is a presence in anger." I was always moved by that contrasting of victimization vs. being victimized; it's important to maintain the kind of rage that allows you to resist.KATHY ACKER: In early books, the characters changed gender a lot: I never got 'his' and 'her' right! And the dumb reason was: I just didn't remember, I didn't care. ... I think the reason was probably my hatred of gender.
