  • Dear Friends
    Dear Friends, Greetings from the Project on Middle East Democracy! Last week, Syrian violence and repression continued as Secretary Clinton announced President Assad had lost his legitimacy. Secretary Clinton also announced U.S. recognition of the Transitional National Council in Libya. Analysts debated the legitimacy of the National Dialogue in Bahrain amidst continued government repression. Meanwhile, popular frustration continues to mount in Egypt at the slow pace of reform. Look for next week to be dominated by increased international pressure on President Assad in Syria, as well as working toward a negotiated settlement in Libya.

    EU-Egypt Task Force - Co-chairs conclusions The first meeting of the joint Egypt-European Union (EU) Task Force took place on 14th November in Cairo as agreed on the occasion of the visit of President Mohamed Morsi to Brussels on 13th September. The Task Force was launched by Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Kamel Amr and Catherine Ashton, EU High Representative/Vice president and was inaugurated by Egypt's Prime Minister H.E. Dr. Hisham Kandil. Ministers of the Egyptian Government, European Foreign Ministers, EU Commissioners, Members of Parliament, President of the EIB, International Financial Institutions’ senior officials, business leaders, the Secretary General of the UfM, as well as representatives from civil society, participated in the Task Force. The Task Force was the occasion for the EU to send a strong political message in support of the democratic reform process Egypt has embarked on following the 25th January 2011 revolution, in which the Egyptian people demanded their legitimate political and socio-economic rights, particularly freedom, social justice, dignity and prosperity. A new era in EU-Egypt relations for a closer partnership A new era in the relationship between the EU and the new Egypt has started. As equal partners, with common aspirations and values, we are willing to work as closest allies. This mutually-beneficial partnership is based on solid co- ownership, mutual respect and complementarity of interests. It aims at ensuring sustainable inclusive economic growth and socio-economic development, through creating jobs, promoting investment, trade, tourism, technology transfer, know-how and innovation. In support of the ongoing democratic transformation, Egypt and the EU will work together to overcome the socio-economic challenges, thus setting an example for the region and beyond.

To not challenge these intersections is to, instead, reproduce them. Crenshaw demonstrates that the failure of American feminism to adequately interrogate the problems of racism caused feminism in the US to replicate and reinforce the racism women of color faced.
