In Intersectional Tech: Black Users in Digital Gaming, Kishonna L.
Gray interrogates blackness in gaming at the intersections of race,
gender, sexuality, and (dis)ability. Situating her argument within
the context of the concurrent, seemingly unrelated events of
Gamergate and the Black Lives Matter movement, Gray highlights the
inescapable chains that bind marginalized populations to
stereotypical frames and limited narratives in video games.
Intersectional Tech explores the ways that the multiple identities
of black gamers some obvious within the context of games, some more
easily concealed affect their experiences of gaming. The
normalization of whiteness and masculinity in digital culture
inevitably leads to isolation, exclusion, and punishment of
marginalized people. Yet, Gray argues, we must also examine the
individual struggles of prejudice, discrimination, and
microaggressions within larger institutional practices that sustain
the oppression. These ""new"" racisms and a complementary
colorblind ideology are a kind of digital Jim Crow, a new mode of
the same strategies of oppression that have targeted black
communities throughout American history. Drawing on extensive
interviews that engage critically with identity development and
justice issues in gaming, Gray explores the capacity for gaming
culture to foster critical consciousness, aid in participatory
democracy, and effect social change. Intersectional Tech is rooted
in concrete situations of marginalized members within gaming
culture. It reveals that despite the truths articulated by those
who expose the sexism, racism, misogyny, and homophobia that are
commonplace within gaming communities, hegemonic narratives
continue to be privileged. This text, in contrast, centers the
perspectives that are often ignored and provides a critical
corrective to notions of gaming as a predominantly white and male
space.

the issues involving gender in computing gaming is still relevant;
and it is evident that the industry could benefit from the

games industry from a gendered perspective and highlights the
variety of ways in which women remain underrepresented in this
industry. This reference source provides a comprehensive overview
on the issue of gender, computer games, and the ICT sector. It
supplies students and academics in numerous disciplines with the
concerns of the computer games industry, male dominated
occupations, and the complexity of gender in the workforce.
