    Both Mohanty and Hooks offer critiques of how Western feminist scholarship and cultural representations have marginalized the experiences of women in the non-Western world and black women. They examine how race, gender, and power intersect in academic and media contexts, and their arguments shed light on broader issues of representation and the need to reevaluate existing power dynamics to build a more inclusive society.

    Talpade Mohanty and "The Oppositional Gaze: Black Female Spectators" by Bell

    representations. How do their viewpoints compare and contrast regarding the
    marginalization of women's experiences? What broader issues of power, and
