Synopsis
Over the past twenty years, the concept of "intersectionality" has emerged as an influential approach to understanding the complex facets of discrimination and exclusion in a society whose members--with often complex racial, gender, or sexual identities--can experience bias in multiple ways.
In this incisive introduction to Crenshaw's groundbreaking work, readers will find the key essays and articles that have defined the concept of intersectionality collected together for the first time. Crenshaw explores how a holistic analysis of discrimination gives rise to a more nuanced understanding of salient social forces. This long-awaited volume examines the Central Park jogger case, Alice Walker's "The Color Purple," LGBT activism, Anita Hill's testimony against Clarence Thomas, and other significant matters of public interest. In each case, her analysis challenges and exposes the intricate social dynamics among individuals and groups whose identities are increasingly layered.
This new account covers the evolution of the meaning of intersectionality over the course of two decades and how this concept has radically changed the face of social justice activism. "On Intersectionality" is compulsory reading from one of the most brilliant critical race theorists of our time.
