Queen Anne’s is celebrating Black History Month this October, so we were thrilled to welcome a talk by Yassine Senghor, Director at Confronting Change. Yassine is a diversity and inclusion expert, with vast knowledge in LGBT inclusion and creating anti-racist spaces.
The Sixth Formers learnt about the concept of intersectionality, and how it can act as an analytical framework to determine how multiple oppressions affect how people move through society. After the initial talk, they took part in a range of group activities in which they considered issues of privilege, gender, and other concepts that many had discussed in their equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) workshops that had run earlier in the year.

The talk allowed the girls to gain a deeper understanding of intersectionality and enables them to have a greater awareness of how structural, political, and representational intersectionality is impacting the wider world around them.
