TALKING FEMINIST, TALKING BLACK1

Micromobilization Processes in a Collective Protest against Rape

AARONETTE M. WHITE

Wilberforce University

During the highly publicized appeals trial of Mike Tyson, Black feminists launched an antirape campaign that included obtaining signatures in support of a full-page ad while simultaneously educating the Black community about racist and sexist rape myths. Organizers challenged rape-supportive discourse using a distinct Black feminist frame that was influenced by structural as well as culturally engendered factors. Relevant frame alignment processes and the significance of racialized, gendered, and class-based micromobilization strategies are described. A coalition-focused view of the framing process is presented, and its usefulness in Black feminist collective action is underscored.
