Autorenporträt
Nadia E. Brown is a University Scholar and Associate Professor of Political Science and African American Studies at Purdue University, USA. She specializes in Black women's politics and holds a graduate certificate in Women's and Gender Studies. Her research interests lie broadly in identity politics, legislative studies, and Black women's studies. While trained as a political scientist, her scholarship on intersectionality seeks to push beyond disciplinary constraints to think more holistically about the politics of identity. Sarah Allen Gershon is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Georgia State University, USA. Her research focuses primarily on the incorporation of traditionally underrepresented groups (including women, and racial and ethnic minorities) into the American political system. In seeking to explain the challenges faced by these groups, her work emphasizes the role of communication, campaigns and political attitudes.
