Intersectionality is not a footnote: Commentary on Roberts and Rizzo (2021).

Abstract

In this brief commentary on Roberts and Rizzo (2021), the authors contend that intersectionality is essential to understanding and combatting American racism. Epistemic exclusion of intersectionality, which is rampant in psychology, limits the discipline's capacity to scientifically capture the complexity of racism and to promote inclusive antiracist efforts.
