| dc.description.abstract | In the words of Audre Lorde, "There is no such thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives." Intersectionality is the term coined by Kimberle Crenshaw (1989) to describe "the social, economic, and political ways in which identity-based systems of oppression connect, overlap, and influence one another." Principles of intersectionality are often powerfully infused in movements such as the Me Too Movement, Black Lives Matter, and the Women's March and it is essential to incorporate such principles into the quest for educational equity. This presentation will examine the commonalities and overlapping forms of suffering victims of discrimination share and will provide suggestions on how faculty can synthesize concepts of intersectionality, social justice, and human rights into the curriculum as a pathway toward achieving educational equity. | en_US |
