Bad Feminism
I watched a Ted talk called "Bad feminism" today and now recap the video content.
From the speaker's point of view, bad feminism is the opposite of the mainstream feminism which historically ignored or deflected the needs of women of color, working-class women, queer and transgender women, in favor of white, middle- and upper-class straight women.
She also mentioned that our society is set up to make women economically vulnerable when they choose to live her own way.
She proposed we should do many small acts of bravery to develop a more inclusive feminism. For example, to boycott the products / TV program/ radio program which degrade women.
We should take into account of we have different bodies, gender expressions, faiths, sexualities, class backgrounds and abilities.

I haven't watched the talk yet, but you have made an interesting resumé of it.

I didn't find any grammatical mistakes. I'd just like to point out that the speaker in that TED talks is referring to American Feminism. Feminism has historically varied from country to country. In many countries, women have worked with the poor in order to achieve social change. It just hasn't really been the case in the US.
