The Intersectionality of Women's Lives and Resistance uses the tools of the arts, humanities, social sciences, and other fields to address challenges faced by women and girls around the world, both historically and in modern day, with an emphasis on intersectionality. Contributors offer interdisciplinary analyses of how gender intersects with race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and other identity markers in complex ways, and how these are tied to the interconnected nature of systems of oppression, power, and privilege.
