Ep. 1 Unpacking Intersectionality with Scholars - Part 1

Welcome to Intersectionality in the American South, where educators, students, activists, and community members come together and unpack current realities for black and indigenous people of color. Each episode, we will discuss the impact of racism, sexism, classism, heterosexism, and anti-immigrant sentiment on the lives of Atlanta residents and BIPOC individuals throughout the south. On today's episode, Dr. Elizabeth West, Lakeyta Bonnette-Bailey, Tanya Washington-Hicks, and Desmond Goss,  all of Georgia State University, are going to share what intersectionality means to them. We talk about the power of intersectionality, how it shapes our politics, and its potential as a tool for activism.We also talk about the importance of self care as a form of radical resistance for black and brown folks.
