Ignoring Intersectionality

Three decades ago, legal scholar and civil rights activist Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw coined the term " intersectionality " as a way of examining how courts failed to account for the overlapping forms of discrimination faced by Black women. Today, the term is used more broadly to refer to the way race, class, gender, sexuality and other characteristics overlap and shape individuals' experiences. "We like to think about people being one thing or the other when you can be Asian and queer and an immigrant," said Martin, the University of Washington professor. While a decade ago it may have been hard to find books by and about people whose identities sit at those types of intersections, that's increasingly less true, Martin said. "You can find those books if you are looking."

LOVE this! Completely free platform that allows students to interact with each other's work. I've only used it for Peer Review, but there are tons of different options. For Peer Review, it can be anonymous, so a student submits their work, then gets assigned work from other students to review using a rubric you assign. Then everyone reflects on the feedback they each received. It is totally streamlined!
