One of Audre Lorde’s famous essays, “The Master’s Tools will Never Dismantle the Master’s House,” challenged how people view racism.
For the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house. They will encourage us to beat him briefly at his own game, but they will never allow us to bring about meaningful reform. And this truth further concerns those women who still define the house of the lord as their only source of support." When they are clear as day we are constantly advocating for ourselves and explaining our injustices." This quote indicates that this is an instrument that is used to oppress us and hold ignorance alive.
