Contradictory Tensions in Anti-Oppression Practice in Feminist Social Services

The implementation of an anti-oppression approach in feminist agencies must deal with contradictory tensions within the model. Feminists imagine anti-oppression as a model of practice that deals with all structures of oppression. At the same time, feminist members of marginalized communities perceive that their particular form of oppression is not attended to in the model. The authors contend that one must understand anti-oppression practice within the historical and social conditions that create inequity and offer implications for practice.

Key Words: anti-oppression • anti-oppressive practice • feminist organizations • organizational change
