TED Talk: The Urgency of Intersectionality

This TED talk introduces intersectionality--a social application of “a whole is greater than the sum of its parts”. Everyone has multiple identities that influence our place in and view of the world. Kimberlé Crenshaw uses her research and current events to describe what happens at the intersections of multiple identities.

Examining Equitable and Inclusive Work Environments in Environmental Education: Perspectives from the Field and Implications for Organizations

This practitioner's brief is the result of a study designed to systematically document how EE organizations think about and operationalize equity and inclusion in the work environment and what the experiences of people of color in the field are. It adds to the chorus of stories and anecdotal evidence we’ve heard for several decades. The findings, informed by a survey of 51 organization leaders across the U.S. and focus group interviews with 26 educators of color, reveal a narrative that highlights the disconnect between the ways in which organizations believe, or intend, to be addressing equity and inclusion and how it is operationalized in the work environment.
