- W69033259 abstract "Contemporary minority women’s autobiographies have significantly altered, over the past few decades, our understanding of the social and political basis of identity formation. In their articulation of their own subjectivities, minority women autobiographers expressed an urgent need to conceptualize issues relating to women’s place and writing and traditional forms within patriarchal systems in conjunction with issues of race, class and gender. Current social structure in the U.S. portrays various degrees of inequality where race, class, and gender form a complicated web of power relations. As an instance of this, minority working class women often suffer from a triple marginalization based on their concurrent gender, class and racial inequality. Noticeably, minority women writers have made that triple discrimination one of their main thematic focuses. Thinking Class: Sketches from a Cultural Worker by Joanna Kadi, comes with the urge to write history ‘from below’, from the perspective of ordinary working class women, making them central to historical interpretation and to the writing of the collective biography of subclasses. In the preface to her autobiography, Kadi remarks: “I didn’t write this book alone…Without discounting the incredible amount of work I did, I am focusing here on communal aspects of working-class experience reflected in my life and writing.” (Kadi , p.5 ) Kadi emphasizes the group effort that marks the pages of her book, mirroring thus, the working-class tradition of barn raisings and quilting bees. This could account for the multi-faceted and multi-layered structure of the autobiographical discourse adopted by the author. Autobiography has long been considered the literary expression of individualism, of a belief in an integrated and coherent personality central to the narrated experience. At the outset of her narrative, Kadi projects a different view and rejects this notion of writing as an individual experience, ‘Don’t imagine a lone rugged individual fixedly concentrating in her study with the door firmly closed against any intruders –human, feline, or canine.’ (Kadi , p.5 ) For her there are no myths about triumphant figures pursuing fame and fortune, and most importantly," @default.
