Abstract

In this chapter, I engage with issues of power and identity and explore empowerment as a strategy for transformation in contexts of oppression, privilege and inequality. A central focus for this chapter is a critical self-reflection or reflexivity on the development of my identity and social position as a white, professional, middle-class woman in power relations and how this has impacted on my community practice in apartheid and post-apartheid South Africa.
