The feminist view of rape applied to Jewish women in the aftermath of 10/7 comes for the West. It is not a surprise, and it’s not about #MeToo: a strand of feminism has been developing the idea that rape is the collateral damage of racism and imperialism, and that we must accept violent revolution in order to end these oppressions, for years. Angela Davis, “Violence Against Women and the Ongoing Challenge to Racism,” 1985: “The very same social conditions which spawn racist violence…are the same forces which encourage sexual violence. Thus, sexual violence can never be completely eradicated until we have succeeded in effecting a whole range of radical social transformations in our country.” Same essay: “If we are militant activists challenging violence against women, we must also see ourselves as fearless fighters against police violence, and in passionate solidarity with the racially and nationally oppressed people who are its main targets.” Etc. This vision of feminism always said women’s concerns would be addressed in the aftermath of anti-state revolution, not before. In fact, the liberal version of feminism associated with Jewish feminist Betty Friedan was developed in part to counter this very idea.
