I agree with the statement The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House. She speaks about the alienation of black women from the “master’s house,” which is men, particularly white. The master’s tools can be seen as privileges earned and mainly white women earn those privileges. If white women who posses those privileges are not aware of their own ability to create change instead of relying on others who refuse to change their ignorant ways, then the master’s house will continue to stand. Although they can acknowledge that racism is bad, it is not enough, if they for example continue to support companies that have a history of discrimination. The masters tools are caught up in a hierarchy of power that keeps hold of the masters house on top, while everyone else such as black women are below. Lorde states “They may allow us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. And this fact is only threatening to those women who still define the master’s house as their only source of support.” White women and their privileges will never dismantle the white man’s house. I do not think it needs to be modified because once understood it is a powerful statement.
