Scapegoating Violence, Mimetic Desire: Mary Daly, One Sentence and Dishonor; Male Philosophers, Millions of Words, Honor, But Daly’s is the Victory
Posted in Erasure of Feminist Leaders, Erasure of Women's Lives, Exile, Giants, Heroes, In Memorium, Lesbian Community, Love Between Women, Sisterhood, Woman-Only Space, Women's Excellence on Jan 14th, 2010
For many years now I have been interested in the relationship between scapegoating violence and a phenomenon known as — or theorized as — “mimetic desire.” French philosopher and academic Rene Girard is widely credited with developing this theory or philosophy. Briefly (and necessarily reductively), mimetic desire theory posits that human beings are by nature social, that we are [...]

The Brilliance of Mary Daly: “Sisterhood Means Revolution”
Posted in Heroes, In Memorium, Loss, Love Between Women, Mary Daly's Writings, Mourning, Sisterhood on Jan 10th, 2010
From Beyond God the Father, 1973, Chapter 2, “Exorcising Evil from Eve: The Fall Into Freedom:”

Mary Daly speaking at the Feminist Hullaballoo in Santa Fe, NM — June 23, 2007
She was amazing! I remember thinking her wearing of green might have been intentional, consistent with her celebration of the “biophilic” (life loving).
Mary Daly passed away yesterday, Sunday morning, January 3, 2010. Her life deserves to be honored and celebrated and for this, I [...]

Trauma of knowing that, and living in a world that ridicules, silences and crushes any [...]
