Definition[edit | edit source]
Intersectional segregation refers to the overlapping inequalities and marginalization experienced by individuals who face multiple forms of discrimination based on their intersecting identities. This concept recognizes that individuals may experience different types of oppression simultaneously, such as racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, or classism.
For example, a Black woman may face discrimination not only because of her race but also because of her gender. This intersectional discrimination can manifest in various ways, such as limited job opportunities, pay disparities, or stereotyping.
Intersectional segregation highlights the importance of understanding and addressing the unique experiences of individuals who are marginalized due to multiple aspects of their identity. It recognizes that an individual's experiences and disadvantages cannot be fully understood by examining only one form of oppression at a time.
Efforts to combat intersectional segregation involve creating inclusive policies and practices that recognize and address the unique needs and challenges faced by individuals at the intersections of multiple identities. This can include promoting diversity and inclusion in different settings, advocating for equal opportunities, and challenging systemic discrimination and biases.
