Inhaltsangabe
This groundbreaking book provides an accessible, empowering exploration of the evolution of gender identity issues and the ongoing fight for equality and inclusion in society. Spanning topics from workplace discrimination to transgender rights, author Leslie Green leverages decades of scholarship and activism to illuminate the complex forces shaping gender opportunity worldwide.
Each chapter examines lingering cultural and structural barriers that continue to limit freedom and justice based on identity. The book explores restrictive gender stereotypes and roles, the persistence of the workplace gender pay gap, lack of women in leadership, imbalanced family caregiving burdens, disproportionate gender-based violence, and the marginalization experienced by transgender and gender non-conforming individuals.
Green provides policy and societal context around key identity terms like cisgender, transgender, non-binary, gender fluid and gender affirming. The book chronicles the history of gender justice movements and progress made to date. However, true inclusion remains unfinished.
Collapsing the Divide underscores that gender inequality intersects with other systems of bias and oppression related to race, class, sexual orientation, disability status, age and other attributes. Lived experiences differ based on social positioning. Holistic solutions must address needs across diverse demographic groups—not just dominant majorities.
Insightful storytelling lifts up courageous voices and perspectives from the front lines of gender justice work. The book combines intellectual rigor with emotional resonance to foster compassion and pragmatic solutions. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of both persisting pain points and promising paths ahead to transform institutions, dismantle entrenched privileges, and embrace gender diversity with humanity.
Perfect for college students, educators, workplace diversity trainers, policy makers, activists and conscientious citizens, Collapsing the Divide will open your eyes to the next chapter of gender liberation struggles. By collapsing past divisions, society can unlock the richness of our shared human potential.
