We don't experience our everyday lives through just one lens; rather, we experience all elements of our identity--race, class, gender, sexuality--simultaneously. This ground-breaking, engaging, highly accessible new book acknowledges this reality and brings to light the importance of studying the intersections of race, class, gender, and sexuality, both as elements of personal identity and as sources of social inequality.
Though required for my sociology class, I enjoyed this book and the discussions and thoughts it led to.
I would recommend this to anyone looking to learn and understand about the diversity and inequality in this country as well as the world.
