Class Action January 2006 Book of the Month!     

Paula Rothenberg

Invisible Privilege: A Memoir about Race, Class, and Gender

(University of Kansas Press, 2000)

Invisible Privilege is a very readable account of one woman’s thoughtful reflections on her life experiences through the lens of race, gender and class.  Through her stories, we understand the complex intersection of oppressions and the ways which we most of us experience life in both oppressor and oppressed roles.  As a Jewish woman, Rothenberg dramatizes her personal journey toward feminism and experiences of anti-Semitism.  As a white and privileged woman, she shares insights into the invisible privileges she benefits from.
