Give tacit consent to the (white male) model of leadership-through-violence that has dominated for the last 500 years or Invest your followership into a multi-racial, multi-cultural, multi-intellingence feminine servant leadership

I love this whole thread. I know Servant Leadership is a thing. But seeing the words “feminine servant” together made me cringe. The (painful) oppression of females is so tied to us being servants, historically and today. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servant_leadership …

Good point - I know language fails me often, in describing the world I think is possible. (I did have feminine-style leadership in there but ran out of characters). I would add that I believe men can exhibit feminine style leadership and vice versa.

History has made "servant" a term denoting lack of agency even though "service" enjoys a dignified pedestal. When my aunt, who brought up 7 of her siblings, passed away earlier this year. She never married or saved up for herself. She was a teacher who worked 3 jobs.

At her funeral, my dad teared up saying "The banyan tree that provided for all has fallen." I have known her to be fearless, kind, wise and caring. A true feminist nurturing servant leader.
