In Intersectionality & Identity from the Public Training Series, learn about intersectionality and the ways it can be used to understand our society and ourselves. We talk about what intersectionality is, the ways it shows up in society and in our conceptions of self, why activism needs to be intersectional, and other ways of understanding how we view ourselves.
