This presentation employs a multicultural feminist theoretical framework, as well as data from interviews with racial minority women in various workplaces in a middle-size community in the upper Midwest of the United States, in a reconsideration of women's voices in organizational settings in the U.S. When interviewed, several minority women with varied organizational situations in this predominantly white community said that they believe that they are treated as "colored" people to a greater extent than minority men are treated as "colored" people in the community; then, in this context, these women discussed their strategies of expressing their voices and having their voices heard in the workplace. The panelists will review the existing scholarship about women's voices in organizations in the United States, and will reconsider this body of literature by drawing on this case study and by reflecting on the associations between masculinity and whiteness as taken for granted, particularly in homogeneous communities with few minorities. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
