January 27, 2017 – Segment 3
January 27, 2017 – Segment 3We hosted a rebroadcast of a show from last fall on the important topic of Intersectionality. Intersectionality is discrimination experienced by people belonging to more than one minority group. The discussion’s jumping off point was a Baltimore Sun article featuring Dr. Karsonya “Kaye” Wise Whitehead, “Intersectionality concerns transcend straight, white feminism.” Dr. Whitehead is Associate Professor of Communication and African and African American Studies at Loyola University Maryland and author of Race Brave: New and Selected Works, Notes From a Colored Girl: the Civil War Pocket Diaries of Emile Frances Davis and My Black Sons: Raising Boys in a Post-racial America.
The panel included: A. Adar Ayira, Project Manager of the More in the Middle Campaign for Associated Black Charities and facilitator and analyst at Baltimore Racial Justice Action, a program of Fusion Partnerships; Jennifer Eden, Peer Navigator and Communications Specialist who is also featured in the Baltimore Sun article and Jennifer Williams, Assistant Professor of English at Morgan State University.
