"When you look to any group to find out who's the most oppressed, it's always gonna be the women. . . . Just look at a woman, and you'll find the story of real oppression in this society.  In our case, our oppression is threefold. It's first the oppression under capitalism that affects all people of the Third World. Secondly, there's the oppression under capitalism that affects women in terms of jobs and things like that; and thirdly, there's the oppression that we receive from own own men."  Denise Oliver, Young Lords Central Committee, 1970
