Abstract
Él proposito del trabajo es hacer una comparación entre los procesos de construcción de la identidad de género de las mujeres de las minorías estadounidenses. Se intenta mostrar las diferencias entre la constitución y desarrollo de las organizaciones de las mujeres de las minorías chicanas y
negras con las organizaciones de lucha y objetivos de las organizaciones de las mujeres blancas de clase media. El trabajo es descriptivo en parte de los comienzos del feminismo blanco y de las mujeres de las minorías pero al mismo tiempo trata de elucidar la peculiar situación de las mujeres de color. Estas tienen, como las revolucionarias marxistas de los países del tercer mundo, el dilema de las prioridades de la patria-pueblo-raza y la identidad de genero. Negociaciones implícitas y explicitas toman cuenta de esta situación de ambivalencia.
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to compare the process of gender identity construction of the American women. Anglo women are compared with blacks and Chicanas in an attempt to show the differences between the objectives and organizations of anglo and middle class women and the objectives and organizations of minority women. The paper is descriptive of the starting of the movements trying, however to elucidate the peculiar situation of women of color (chicanas and blacks) in their connection with their priorities of pueblo-race (raza) and gender identity. There is not a single solution to these. Negotiations, both explicit and inexplicit, would take care of this ambiguous situation.
