अश्वेत स्त्रियाँ समाज को भीतर के बाहरी लोगों की विशेष स्थिति से देखती हैं, और नस्ल, वर्ग तथा लिंग एक ही प्रणाली के रूप में साथ-साथ लोगों का उत्पीड़न करते हैं।
पृष्ठभूमि
समाजशास्त्री: अश्वेत नारीवादी चिंतन “भीतर के बाहरी” लोगों का एक स्थिति-बिंदु है, जिसके ज्ञान के अपने मानदंड हैं – जिया हुआ अनुभव, संवाद, देखभाल; उत्पीड़न एक “प्रभुत्व के आव्यूह” में एक-दूसरे को काटते हैं।
मुख्य विचार
- प्रभुत्व का आव्यूह
- भीतर का बाहरी
- अश्वेत नारीवादी ज्ञानमीमांसा

अश्वेत स्त्रियों का ज्ञान एक स्थिति-बिंदु के रूप में: प्रभुत्व का आव्यूह और जिए हुए अनुभव तथा संवाद की ज्ञानमीमांसा।
मत
Collins argues that Black women in the United States have produced a body of thought – in blues lyrics, oral tradition, fiction and scholarship – which deserves to be taken as knowledge. Their position as “outsiders within”, working inside white institutions without belonging to them, gives them a distinctive standpoint. Black feminist epistemology, in her account, has its own criteria: lived experience as a criterion of meaning, dialogue in assessing claims, an ethic of caring and of personal accountability. Oppressions – race, class, gender, sexuality, nation – are not additive but form a “matrix of domination” in which a person may be oppressed in one dimension and privileged in another.
