Intersectional discrimination
This title examines the concept of intersectional discrimination and why it has been difficult for jurisdictions around the world to redress it in discrimination law. 'Intersectionality' was coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989. 30 years since its conception, the term has become a buzzword in sociology, anthropology, feminist studies, psychology, literature, and politics. But it remains marginal in the discourse of discrimination law, where it was first conceived. Traversing its long and rich history of development, the book explains what intersectionality is as a theory and as a category of discrimination. It then explains what it takes for discrimination law to be reimagined from the perspective of intersectionality in reference to comparative laws in the US, UK, South Africa, Canada, India, and the jurisprudence of the European Courts and international human rights treaty bodies.

Análisis interseccional sobre personajes femeninos de distintos colectivos étnicos. Estudio de caso de tres miniseries de Netflix
Introducción y propósito. La interseccionalidad fundamenta esta investigación basada en tres narraciones emitidas en la plataforma Netflix, que abordan temas que aglutinan conceptos sobre mujeres de color, etnias diversas, comunidades tradicionalmente consideradas como marginales, la búsqueda de la libertad, frente al fanatismo hegemónico y reglado, la lucha política por la recuperación de la justicia, de la mano de mujeres que rompen los patrones tradicionales de representación suponiendo un cambio de paradigma. Objetivos y Metodología. Partiendo de planteamientos (Hill Collins, Bilge, 2016 o Braidotti, 2019) de análisis macro y micro sociológicos, se ha realizado un estudio de contenidos de corte cualitativo, aplicado a las tres series -Unorthodox, Kalifat y Black Earth Rising- estableciendo la interrelación entre los conceptos en busca de la justicia social. Los descriptores fundamentales han sido la etnia, el cuerpo, la sexualidad, el matrimonio, la religión y lo social. Resultados y discusión. Los resultados plantean un evidente cambio de arquetipos. El análisis macro del estudio pone de relieve las relaciones de poder desde una perspectiva de interseccionalidad mostrando cómo las mujeres protagonistas estaban sometidas a estructuras opresoras. El análisis micro demuestra que se da una deconstrucción de éstas a través de mujeres que consiguen transgredir dichos entramados opresores. Aportación y originalidad de la contribución Un cambio de paradigma en el tratamiento tradicional de las miniseries con un giro hacia el empoderamiento de las mujeres.

Intersectionality of race, ethnicity, class, and gender in teaching and teacher education : movement toward equity in education
\"In Intersectionality of Race, Ethnicity, Class, and Gender in Teaching and Teacher Education, the editors bring together scholarship that employs an intersectionality methodology to conditions that affect public school children, teachers, and teacher educators. Chapter authors use intersectionality to examine group identities not only for their differences and experiences of oppression, but also for differences within groups that contribute to conflicts among groups. This collection moves beyond single-dimension conceptions that undermines legal thinking, disciplinary knowledge, and social justice. Intersectionality in this collection helps complicate static notions of race, ethnicity, class, and gender in education. Hence, this book stands as an addition to research on educational equity in relation to institutional systems of power and privilege\" -- Provided by publisher.

The canary code : a guide to neurodiversity, dignity, and intersectional belonging at work
\"The Canary Code is a groundbreaking framework for intersectional inclusion and belonging at work that embraces human cognitive, emotional, and neurobiological differences-neurodiversity. Despite their skills and work ethics, members of autistic, ADHD, Tourette Syndrome, learning differences, and related communities face barriers to hiring and advancement. In the U.S., 30-40% of neurodivergent people and 85% of autistic college graduates struggle with unemployment. Yet, like canaries in the coal mine, they are impacted by issues that ultimately harm everyone. Lack of flexibility, transparency, and psychological safety exclude neurodivergent, disabled, and multiply marginalized talent-and leave most employees stressed and disengaged. This book helps CEOs, human resources and DEI leaders, managers, and consultants design neuroinclusive and thriving workplaces where everyone can do their best work. It draws on examples of pioneering organizations, human stories, academic research, and the author's decades of experience. Organizational psychologist and member of the autistic community, Ludmila N. Praslova, PhD., offers a comprehensive framework for building neuroinclusive workplaces. Embedding the 6 \"Canary Code\" principles across the talent cycle can unlock human thriving and productivity: Participation; Outcome focus; Flexibility; Organizational justice; Transparency; Valid Measurement. This unique book combines the lived autism experience with cutting-edge organizational thinking, academic rigor, and passionate, artful writing. Readers will experience organizational life through the eyes of neurodivergent individuals and find many tools for human-centric talent management and the inclusive future of work\"-- Provided by publisher.

Everyday Bordering, Belonging and the Reorientation of British Immigration Legislation
The article argues that everyday bordering has become a major technology of control of both social diversity and discourses on diversity, in a way that threatens the convivial co-existence of pluralist societies, especially in metropolitan cities, as well as reconstructs everyday citizenship. The article begins with an outline of a theoretical and methodological framework, which explores bordering, the politics of belonging and a situated intersectional perspective for the study of the everyday. It then analyses the shift in focus of recent UK immigration legislation from the external, territorial border to the internal border, incorporating technologies of everyday bordering in which ordinary citizens are demanded to become either border-guards and/or suspected illegitimate border crossers. We illustrate our argument in the area of employment examining the impact of the requirements of the immigration legislation from the situated gazes of professional border officers, employers and employees in their bordering encounters.
