Big Picture Question: How are race, class, gender and sexuality, ability, ethnicity, etc. positioned intersectionally to construct racial differences? Your answer should include the following:
1) A brief explanation of the role of analogies and metaphors in constructing intersectional difference, and 2 examples from the reading for this week;
2) Briefly discuss how settler colonialism and race/gender/sexuality intersections were used to construct Native Americans as “Other.” Make sure to detail the relationships constructed between each element to do so;
3) Provide one example of how intersections of identity were used to construct poor whiteness as abnormal? Why is the construction of abnormal whiteness not the same as the construction of racial abnormality?
4) Do your own research to find a current example of a person or group of people experiencing intersectional oppression along lines of race, class, gender, ability, sexuality, etc. Provide a web link to or citation for the information you found about the person/group.
