Description
Intersectional Class Struggle Theory and Practice by Michael Beyea Reagan explores how class operates in our world today. This innovative study argues that traditional approaches to class analysis have missed key elements, instead combining intersectional theory and materialism to examine the complex factors that shape "class". By studying working-class experiences across different historical periods, from migrant farm workers to factory girls and black workers, the book reveals the diversity of working-class lives and how concepts like racial capitalism and black feminist thought can be applied to class studies. Ultimately, it argues that class is a shared experience that encompasses us all, in our contradictions and complexities.
