It may seem odd that an Asian-American woman became a leader in the Black liberation and Civil Rights Movement, but Dr. Grace Boggs deeply understood that our individual liberation is bound up in the liberation of others. Dr. Grace Boggs was a Detroit-based labor activist and organizer known as the founding mother of intersectionality. She used her academic background in philosophy to undergird her organizing work in building cross-racial, intersectional social movements and centering marginalized experiences. As we continue the fight against intersecting and overlapping systems of oppression, Grace’s scholarship, activism and vision can lead the way.  On this episode,  Dr. Kesha Moore explores the life and legacy of Grace Lee Boggs.
