Intersections of Gender, Sexuality, Class, Race, Ethnicity, Age, Religion,
the Military, etc.
organized by Jennifer Trunzo and Suzanne Spencer-Wood

The framework of intersectionality was coined by Kimberlé  Williams
Crenshaw for the intersections between racism and sexism, following theorizing
and research on these intersections by Bell Hooks in 1984, Joan Smith in
1988, and others. In historical archaeology intersectionality was addressed
without using that term in some conference papers starting with the 1989
SHA gender symposium organized by Suzanne Spencer-Wood. Intersectionality
was the theme of the 1992 SHA symposium that became the 1994 volume "Those
of little Note: Gender, race and class," edited by Elizabeth Scott.
Intersectionality is being applied more broadly, but its theoretical
foundation is the intersections of gender and other social dimensions,
which is the focus of this symposium.
