Intersectionality is a term coined by Kimberle Crenshaw in 1989. Crenshaw, a scholar of law, critical race theory, and Black feminist legal theory, used intersectionality to explain the experiences of Black women who-because of the intersection race, gender, and class-are exposed to exponential and interlocking forms of marginalization and oppression often rendering them invisible. The second edition of Intersectionality & Higher Education: Theory, Research & Praxis further documents and expands upon Crenshaw's articulation of intersectionality within the context of higher education. The text includes (a) theoretical and conceptual chapters on intersectionality; (b) empirical research and research-based chapters using intersectionality as a framework; and (c) chapters focusing on intersectional practices, all within higher education settings. The volume may prove beneficial for graduate programs in ethnic studies, higher education, sociology, student affairs, and women and gender studies and programs alike.

"For those engaged in social justice work as well as those unfamiliar with the interwoven nature of identity and disparities that exacerbate oppression, and the nuances of multiple group memberships, intersectionality is essential in advancing justice and curbing inequities. Too often is the case that scholars, practitioners, and advocates for social justice fall short of illustrating identity markers that are not siloes but routinely converge in fueling prejudice, systemic discrimination, and oppressive conditions. However, the second edition of Intersectionality & Higher Education edited by Donald "DJ" Mitchell, Jr. and associates recognizes this constraint subsequently providing breadth and depth on intersectionality. Readers will be informed and enlightened with complex applied theoretical, methodological, and practical intersectional approaches."--Eboni M. Zamani-Gallaher, Associate Dean & Professor, The Graduate College, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
"There is a saying, when you know better, you do better. The second edition of Intersectionality & Higher Education will help educators do better around identity development and understanding contexts and institutional power structures that press down upon those most affected by marginalization. The renowned scholars that contributed to this book give readers an accessible way to unpack intersectionality within higher education."--Bridget Turner Kelly, Associate Professor, College of Education, University of Maryland; Executive Editor, Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice
"This is a thorough and thoughtful second edition written by a stellar group of seasoned scholars. I heard the voices of so many minoritized individuals who rarely have their identities, issues, and concerns recognized in higher education and student affairs canons, either theoretically, in research or practice. I saw myself in various chapters throughout the book which empowered and validated who I am and my experiences and struggles, particularly on predominantly White campuses. Intersectionality & Higher Education is a rare and welcome text that is true to Kimberlé Crenshaw's original writings and interpretation of intersectionality."--Mary F. Howard-Hamilton, Distinguished Research Professor & Chair, Bayh College of Education, Indiana State University
"The breadth and depth across theory, research, and praxis with which intersectionality is examined in the second edition of Intersectionality & Higher Education is especially impressive. The infusion of personal perspectives throughout the book adds to its authenticity and meaningfulness. However, what is most powerful is the active interrogation of intersectionality--recognizing that it is not just about individuals and individual identities--but instead reifying that intersectionality is, at its core, about systemic inequality."--Raechele L. Pope, Associate Dean & Associate Professor, Graduate School of Education, University at Buffalo; Lead Author, Creating Multicultural Change on Campus
