Abstract :

This paper explores the concept of intersectionality as a critical framework for understanding gender inequality, particularly through the lens of race and gender. By examining the "double burden" experienced by women of color, it highlights how systems of oppression do not operate independently but intersect to create unique experiences of marginalization.
