It highlights the intentional critique of U.S. militarism from feminist\/womanist perspectives that seek to show the ways in which gender, race\/ethnicity, sexuality, and violence intersect to threaten women's lives, especially women of color's lives, and the broader environment upon which women's lives are dependent.
