September 2019: Sumi Cho

Intersectionality, as one of the latest approaches in Postcolonial Studies, Feminist and

Queer Studies, has been challenging the analysis of power structures and systems of

discriminations. Prof. Sumi Cho, one of the leading voices of Intersectionality Studies

was invited by the Africa Multiple Cluster of Excellence to participate in a workshop

on “Intersectionality” where she introduced the audience to the political backdrop of

the topic and set the theoretical bases for its discussion. Th e discussion was open for an

interactive engagement of the participants with the objective of exploring the practices

of intersectionality in their fi eld of studies.
