As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Define intersectionality and recognize why it's an important concept to understand. 2. Discuss how intersecting or overlapping identities can lead to internal and/or familial conflict as well as discrimination and disadvantage. 3. Recognize the role of context and circumstances in construction and enactment of their own identities. 4. Articulate the ways in which identity shifts and is perceived across contexts.
