How can we hope to understand social inequality without considering
race, class, and gender in tandem? How do they interact with other
categories such as sexuality, citizenship, and ableism? How does an
inclusive analysis of domination and privilege move us closer to
solutions touching the lives of diverse populations? In this
clearly written book, Mary Romero presents intersectionality as a
core facet of the sociological imagination. One-dimensional
approaches are no longer acceptable. Instead, we must examine all
systems of oppression simultaneously and how they integrate and
work with or against each other to shape life experiences.
Recognizing the dynamics of patriarchy, capitalism, and white
supremacy, Romero shows how social inequality is maintained or
minimized in various social settings and everyday sites of
interaction. Drawing the theoretical threads together, the book
demonstrates intersectional approaches in action in relation to the
care crisis and wealth divide, to highlight the different
understandings of these issues and their solutions arising from a
comprehensive, intersectional examination. Offering an overview of
scholarly and activist tradition in the development of
intersectionality and how to apply intersectionality as a lens to
enrich our understandings of social life, this introductory text
will be an invaluable and welcome resource for all students of
sociology.
