Black Women, Intersectionality, and Workplace Bullying
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-03539-0 (ISBN)
In this interdisciplinary text, Hollis combines the fields of intersectionality and workplace bullying to present a balanced offering of conceptual essays and empirical research studies. The chapters explore how researchers have previously used empirical studies to address race and gender before arguing that the more complex an identity or intersectional position, such as being a Black gender fluid woman, the more likely a person shall experience workplace bullying. The author also looks at how this affects Black women’s mental health, such as through increased anxiety, depression, insomnia, and self-medicating behaviors, before looking specifically at Black female athletes as a study, the topic of colorism at work and its impact on Black women, and how workplace bullying compromises organizations diversity and inclusion initiatives.
This book will be of immense interest to graduate students and academics in the fields of social work, ethnic studies, Black studies, Africana studies, gender studies, political science, sociology, psychology, and social justice. It will also be of interest to those interested in intersectionality and how this relates to race and gender of women.
Leah P. Hollis, a visiting professor at the Samuel Dewitt Proctor Institute at Rutgers University, is a noted expert in workplace bullying. She received her Doctor of Education as a Martin Luther King, Jr. Fellow from Boston University.
