consciousness raising ses
sions and decided they
weren’t so tunny after all.”
Ms. Jones said there are
three stages of develop
ment in the women’s move
ment. In the beginning,
there ?s the realization of
just how broad and impor
tant the problem is. Later
this recognition turns into
frustration and anger with
men who show 'oinker’ 1
tendencies. Finally, Jones
said, you come to realize it
is the system and not the
individual to blame.
According to Ms Jones,
the lib movement provides
a bridge for white and black
women to “communicate in
a way thai has never been
available before.”
Still she believes, ‘Any
thing that affects white
women probably kills black
women' 1 and in many ways
“white women promote
sexism for they teach their
children how to behave In
society.”
“I don’t picket bars that
don’t serve women for I
have other needs - like day
cere center. I can’t leave my
children with the maid to
go opt ana do a number."
Ms. Jones called recent
television programs like
Sanford and Son “a step
backward" for minorities.
She also cited Flip
Wilson’s Geraldine as
being degrading to women.
“Ultimately,” she said,
“sexism and racism robs
you of your humanity. The
womens mjvement has
the potential to break up a
racist system.”
