Abstract
This chapter furthers the dialogue between restorative justice activists and scholars and feminist anti-domestic violence activists and scholars. My focus is on the struggle against domestic violence in subordinated communities. My aim is to address the need for justice strategies that account for the intersecting oppressive systems that operate in the lives of battering men and battered women who are members of these communities.
Keywords: restorative justice, domestic violence, intimate partner violence, feminist theory
