Intersectionality: Community at the Margins

Kinda Sorta Brown

Throughout the season we’ve discussed how different issues — from housing to policing — can bring about unrest within our communities. Despite the unrest, we’ve seen how communities build unity to address these issues and fight back against the problems they cause. Lex Thompson, our guest speaker, joins us to address what about when we are excluded from our own communities? How do we grapple with accepting ourselves when our community doesn’t because of our sexual orientation or gender? On this week’s episode, Chase revisits the concept of intersectionality, how our different identities intersect, and how these intersections can further marginalize people within their own community. You won’t want to miss the season finale of the CommuniTEA: Unity and Unrest with a surprise announcement at the end. Stay tuned and stay close KSFam.
