| Description: |
This innovative anthology expands the concept of privilege, exploring how gender, class, race, sexual orientation, (dis)ability and religion interact to create multifaceted layers of privilege and oppression. |
| Synopsis: |
Privilege is about more than being white, wealthy, and male-as Michael Kimmel, Abby Ferber, and a wide range of contributors make clear in this innovative and timely anthology. In an era when "diversity" is too often shorthand for "of color" and/or "female," the personal and analytical essays in this collection explore the multifaceted nature of social location and consider how gender, class, race, sexual orientation, (dis)ability and religion interact to create nuanced layers of privilege and oppression. The individual essays are powerfully thought-provoking; taken together, they help guide students to a deep understanding of the dynamics of diversity and stratification, advantage and power. The third edition features ten new or newly-recast essays which will help students understand the intersectional nature of privilege and oppression. Enhanced pedagogy (including new discussion questions and "personal connections" activities at the conclusion of each section) encourages students to examine their own assumptions, beliefs, values, practices, and social locations-without becoming overwhelmed. |
