“Feminist Prophecy: A Hypothetical Look into Gloria Anzaldúa’s ‘La Conciencia de la Mestiza: Towards a New Consciousness’ and Sara Ruddick’s ‘Maternal Thinking’ “, by Joshua Alma Enslen (University of Georgia)
Where it says:
Once the prophecy has created this space for the myth, the text can take on its socio-political organization. “Maternal Thinking” is a myth of supremacy, a supremacy that is supposedly born out of a socially constructed necessity to mother. Yet actually, as we have seen, emanates from a mythically constructed mother. According to Chela Sandoval in “US Third-World Feminism” this construction can be a political tactic.

In ‘supremacism’… not only do the oppressed claim their differences, but they also assert that those very differences have provided them access to a superior evolutionary level than those currently in power. Whether their differences are of biological or social origins is of little concern, of more importance is the result… Their mission is to provide the social order with a higher ethical and moral vision and consequently a more effective leadership.
