Please join Kennesaw State University Center for African and African Diaspora Studies as they welcome Dr. Krishauna Hines-Gaither for their spring conversation series, “Let’s Talk with Dr. Krishauna Hines-Gaither.”

Building on the foundational work of Kimberlé Crenshaw, this workshop examines the foundations of intersectionality in terms of multiple identities, and also intersectional failures.
