Summary
"Black women have been credited for Democratic wins in a number of recent consequential elections. Yet outside of the post-election glow, Black women's interests tend not to attract a great deal of attention from politicians, media, or the public more broadly. In Intersectional Solidarity, Chaya Y. Crowder looks at the question of what prompts people to prioritize issues that affect Black women, and when? In particular, she challenges the notion that racial or gender consciousness alone shape political preferences and instead argues that intersectional group consciousness shapes political behavior. Crowder argues that a combination of race, gender, sexuality, and class-based consciousness influences political behavior, particularly when it comes to issues that affect individuals at the intersection of multiple marginalized identities. Further, she introduces the idea of 'intersectional solidarity,' informed by work in social psychology, political science, and Black feminist theory. Crowder applies intersectional solidarity to all people, regardless of their race, gender, or sexuality, but she uses it particularly to explore what groups demonstrate solidarity with Black women, and why. Intersectional Solidarity demonstrates that in order to fully understand how people come to care about issues that affect Black women, scholars are required to ask new questions." -- Back cover.
