The concept of intersectionality has become a hot topic in academic
and activist circles alike. But what exactly does it mean, and why
has it emerged as such a vital lens through which to explore how
social inequalities of race, class, gender, sexuality, age, ability
and ethnicity shape one another? In this new book Patricia Hill
Collins and Sirma Bilge provide a much-needed, introduction to the
field of intersectional knowledge and praxis. They analyze the
emergence, growth and contours of the concept and show how
intersectional frameworks speak to topics as diverse as human
rights, neoliberalism, identity politics, immigration, hip hop,
global social protest, diversity, digital media, Black feminism in
Brazil, violence and World Cup soccer. Accessibly written and
drawing on a plethora of lively examples to illustrate its
arguments, the book highlights intersectionality's potential for
understanding inequality and bringing about social justice oriented
change. Intersectionality will be an invaluable resource for anyone
grappling with the main ideas, debates and new directions in this
field.
