The Erasure of Jewish Women in Modern Feminism: When #MeToo Doesn’t Include You (article)
Keywords: antisemitism, Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, defense mechanisms, feminism, feminist principles, intersectionality, Jewish identity, Jewish values, psychic dynamic, psychoanalysis, psychohistory, women’s rights, unconscious, “#MeToo unless you’re a Jew”
Abstract: This article examines Jewish women’s exclusion from contemporary feminism through a psychohistorical lens. Modern intersectional frameworks have repositioned Jewish women from allies to perceived oppressors, creating a “#MeToo unless you’re a Jew” dynamic. By analyzing unconscious processes—denial, projection, splitting, and compartmentalization—we explore how feminist advocates selectively apply empathy, particularly after October 7th. True intersectionality requires confronting antisemitism and integrating Jewish women’s complex realities.
