About this ebook
Intersectional Identity Layers examines the intricate challenges and opportunities faced by LGBTQ individuals at the crossroads of race, disability, and class. It addresses a gap in understanding the nuanced lived experiences within the LGBTQ community, revealing the impact of intersecting identities on demographic outcomes. For instance, LGBTQ individuals with disabilities often encounter systemic barriers in healthcare, education, and employment. Additionally, socioeconomic status affects LGBTQ individuals from diverse racial backgrounds, leading to disparities in housing, income, and involvement with the criminal justice system.
The book adopts an intersectional approach, presenting qualitative narratives alongside empirical data to illustrate these complexities across urban and rural settings. By exploring the historical marginalization of LGBTQ people, struggles for disability rights, and the effects of racial and class inequality, it offers a more complete picture. Chapters delve into race, disability, and class intersections, culminating in a framework for intersectional analysis and policy recommendations.
