There are three overarching themes that connect the chapters:
interdisciplinarity, intersectionality, and identity. This
interdisciplinary compilation includes contributions from scholars
in cultural studies, social work, English, psychology,
anthropology, and education. Essays include empirical research,
making use of both quantitative and qualitative methods as well as
personal reflections and interpretation. Each chapter makes central
the critical significance of intersectionality, locating privilege
and oppression within larger social systems and institutional
structures, as an ‘interlocking matrix of relationships.’ These
chapters challenge, recognize, and question whiteness, with the
intention that they encourage us to do the same, in our own lives,
practices, behaviors, and disciplines. By taking whiteness
seriously, we might begin to move toward explicit antiracist
efforts, dismantling those structures and hierarchies that enable
only some to speak as ‘just humans.’ The chapters in this book
were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of
Lesbian Studies.
