The Importance of Intersectionality in Research
Tues 5 April 2022, 14.00-15.30
Confirmed speaker: Dr Victoria Showunmi, UCL
Abstract:
One of the methodological approaches I use is intersectionality which is presented as biographical research to illustrate the complexities of racism, sexism and class differences in modern society. Biographical research is an exciting, stimulating and fast-moving field which seeks to understand the changing experiences and outlooks of individuals in their everyday lives. Intersectional discussions examine how both the formal and informal systems of power are deployed maintained and reinforced through notions of race, class and gender (Collins 1998).
