Abstract: This article explores the intersectionality of gender, race, and class through the lens of interdisciplinary inquiry, highlighting how these social identities intersect to shape individuals’ experiences, opportunities, and challenges. By examining theoretical frameworks and empirical research from multiple disciplines, the study reveals the complex and multifaceted ways in which gender, race, and class interact and inform one another. The article emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary approaches in understanding the nuances of identity and social inequality, offering new insights into how these identities are negotiated and experienced across different contexts. Drawing on case studies and contemporary examples, the article critically engages with existing literature to expand the conversation on how social categories are interwoven and how they influence power dynamics, privilege, and marginalization. Through this interdisciplinary lens, the paper proposes new avenues for research and practice aimed at addressing intersectional inequities and promoting social justice.
