However, when we consider activism as a sudden burst of energy, we fail to see the moments that lead to the action and the process that continues after the streets have been cleared. In order to understand that activism has many forms and is a process that continues over time, it is necessary to analyze the work of writers who have made the personal political; writing, educating and interrogating the self in order to put their theories into practice. The impact of the multiracial feminist movement, which was at its peak in the 1980s, has yet to be fully deconstructed. By exploring the work of Mab Segrest and Gloria Anzaldua as contemporaries within the multiracial feminist movement, I trace the process of activism over time, while also widening the definition of activism.
