The United States is known as a "melting pot" yet this mix tends to
be volatile and contributes to a long history of oppression,
racism, and bigotry.
Emerging Intersections, an anthology of ten previously
unpublished essays, looks at the problems of inequality and
oppression from new angles and promotes intersectionality as an
interpretive tool that can be utilized to better understand the
ways in which race, class, gender, ethnicity, and other dimensions
of difference shape our lives today. The book showcases innovative
contributions that expand our understanding of how inequality
affects people of color, demonstrates the ways public policies
reinforce existing systems of inequality, and shows how research
and teaching using an intersectional perspective compels scholars
to become agents of change within institutions. By offering
practical applications for using intersectional knowledge, Emerging
Intersections will help bring us one step closer to achieving
positive institutional change and social justice.
