Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Collins argues that in order to reconceptualize how race, class, and gender operate, it is necessary to rethink dichotomous/oppositional categories in our daily life. Building broad friendship coalitions and being truthful with others may be helpful in creating a more just and equitable society, but they are not specifically related to Collins' argument about rethinking categories of analysis.
