Judit Moschkovich. But I Know You, American Woman. 83-89

Description:
• Ignorance, rooted in the oppressor, is freely expressed in a world where
various cultures co-exist

Analysis:
• Cultural isolationism is imbedded in this country – treat other cultures
however they please (84)
• Myths are the only knowledge of the oppressors about the oppressed (84)
• Imperialism and racism = Americans who don't transform their ignorance
about non-dominant cultures (85)
• Cultures are in and of one another – cannot forget or discard them
(immigrants) (87)

Vision:
• Everyone will have an understanding of all cultures and this learning
will be a sharing experience.

Strategy:
• Go to libraries and bookstores – read and listen (84)
