Intro Paragraph: The complex analysis of intersectionality, consent, and subjection is a very unwavering discourse that is observed in Harriet Jacobs’s seminal work, “ “Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl,” Sadiya Hartman’s intense and througoing suppression n “Rape and Other Offenses to Existence” from “Scenes of Subjection, and lastly the unpalatable documentary “You Belong to Me: Sex, Race, & Murder in the South.”

These pieces of work dive deep into comprehension and understanding of the oppressive nature that women have endured in time. Through the experiences of Hartman, Jacobs, and the documentary this analysis will delve into the dehumanization of women experiencing systemic oppression, elucidate on Jacob’s lived experiences and how they diverge Hartman’s significant insights, and how the documentary portrays women identities based on white men.

As well as shedding light on the various disparities and parallels within the narratives created by men. Each piece of work gives a clear and unique perspective on the significant and preeminent importance of consent, and how women have to combat with power dynamics, sovereignty, and the utter brutality and deamination of systematic oppression
