We chose Intersectionality and Intersectional Knowledges in order to expand intersectionality as a transformative framework that transcends traditional social categorizations, emphasizing the interconnectedness of identities like class, race, and gender. This book offers profound insights into the complexities of human experiences, social structures, and power dynamics, and invites to critically engage with and reshape power structures in the production of knowledge.
