The term “intersectionality,” was coined by scholar Kimberlé Crenshaw in a 1989 paper, and it’s the notion that oppressions intersect to create compounded, complex experiences of discrimination. That’s hard to get around but don’t worry we keep breaking down that terminology throughout the show!
So Intersectionality can refer to the way the effects of different forms of discrimination combine, overlap, or intersect. And how it can impact us and/or the people around us. These intersection could involve race, gender, ability, sexuality, education, age, class, culture. Lots of different things.
We can’t control what life we are born into but we can work on checking our privilege and practicing being more inclusive of people of various intersections in everyday life.
In this podcast we explore how to not just be a feminist or queer activist but an intersectional feminist who maybe starts to focus on feminist issues outside of white feminism. Or a queer activist who also start to focus on trans and GNC or issues for People of Colour.
Thankyou Josie and Claire for coming in and talking with us!
