Centering the Most Marginalized
This research evaluates the extent to which 30 Black women movement actors (e.g., leaders, organizers, and protestors) narrate their intersectional experiences in the Movement for Black Lives (M4BL) in the District of Columbia and Maryland. Specifically, through the narratives and experiences of Black women movement actors (BWMAs) within contemporary social movements, this work uses sociological intersectionality as a theoretical conceptualizatio…
Color capital
Colorism, like whiteness is capital, is rooted in the institution of slavery and has resulted in the preference of light skin.

The Interior of the Movement for Black Lives
Limited sociological literature exists on the interior of local organizations' intersectional politics in the Movement for Black Lives (M4BL). To address this gap in the literature, I conducted 48 interviews in Baltimore and College Park, Maryland; Atlanta, Georgia; Knoxville, Tennessee; and the District of Colombia from 2016 to 2019, to identify the experiences of Black women and queer people in local organizations connected to the M4BL-leaders,…

To address this gap in the literature, I conducted five focus groups in Maryland and the District of Colombia in 2016 to identify the challenges facing BWMA (i.e., leaders, organizers, and protestors) in local organizations connected to the Movement for Black Lives. Theoretically grounded…
