The invisible labor of household management, including child care, housework, and financial responsibilities, is a contemporary form of historical oppression adding strain and contributing to mothers' role overload, depression, distress, and health impairments. The purpose of this article is to use the Framework of Historical Oppression, Resilience, and Transcendence to understand the experiences of gender dynamics in home life responsibilities among two Southeastern tribes. Reconstructive analysis from a critical ethnography with 436 participants revealed the following themes: (1) moms "mostly pulling the weight"; (2) women and child care: "We do it all," and men-"If they're there, they're there"; (3) financial imbalances; and (4) women's resilience and resistance. Despite experiencing the resilience of gender egalitarianism prior to colonization, women persistently experience the effects of the historical oppression of patriarchal colonialism through being overburdened and undervalued in home life. Decolonization is needed to re-establish gender egalitarianism to redress this patriarchal oppression.
家庭管理中的无形劳动,包括育儿、家务和经济责任,是一种当代形式的历史压迫,给母亲们带来压力,导致她们角色超载、抑郁、痛苦和健康受损。本文旨在运用历史压迫、复原力和超越框架,来理解两个东南部部落家庭生活责任中性别动态的经历。对436名参与者进行的批判性人种志的重构分析揭示了以下主题:(1)母亲们“大多承担重任”;(2)女性与育儿:“我们全包了”,而男性——“如果他们在,那他们就在”;(3)经济失衡;以及(4)女性的复原力和反抗。尽管在殖民之前经历过性别平等主义的复原力,但女性在家庭生活中仍然因负担过重和被低估而持续遭受父权制殖民主义历史压迫的影响。需要去殖民化来重新建立性别平等主义,以纠正这种父权压迫。
