Intersectionality is frequently misrepresented in teaching, in training, and by students in their work. This short video explains intersectionality in an engaging and open way, including its origins in black feminism and its connections with anti-racism. This has already been used quite widely in university teaching in the social sciences and in training contexts beyond academia such as in the voluntary sector, in health/medicine, and in government. The video is freely available on YouTube.
