In this week’s blog, we want to highlight the importance of considering intersectionality in discussions of queer identities in schooling and education. Taking an intersectional approach to our teaching means making students aware of the multiple forms of oppression and privilege individuals face and how they interact with one another.

She highlights the importance of educators to understand intersectionality as something to be taught and expected in the curriculum.
