“…Context, which is non‐static, is a key concept of intersectionality, which requires nurses to be knowledgeable about how inequalities in the environment impact health outcomes. Context can be understood as specific to a time and place that are ever changing historically, economically, culturally, politically, and socially (McKinzie & Richards, 2019). Expanding our knowledge of context calls for a recognition of how individuals engage with other individuals, groups, and institutions that impact health.…”

Intersectionality theory has been used by nursing scholars to offer insight into how multiple systems of oppression mutually interact to impact health and to examine how multiple social modes of existence shape individual and group experiences of health inequality. The application of intersectionality theory, however, requires a reflexive critical lens to more effectively inform nursing science and practice. We draw on a comprehensive integrative literature review to offer a critical reflection by considering the semantic and structural consistency, generalizability, simplicity and complexity, and the utility and value of intersectionality theory to nursing science and practice. If nurses are to effectively utilize intersectionality theory, it is essential that we are able to analyze and speak to the multiple modes of existence based on historical, social, economic, and political processes that impact the health of those we serve. Critical examination of intersectionality enables nurses to further consider its value and usefulness when applied to nursing science and practice, particularly when addressing health and social inequalities.

“…Our analysis, while not explicitly using the language of intersectionality (Crenshaw ), parallels recent advances in that line of theorisation. Following McKinzie and Richards's (:10–11) argument that context‐driven research provides “proper space to understanding how history, politics and geographic location shape particular inequalities”, we add that the process scholars most often label as gentrification elides the ways in which many axes of oppression (Curran ; Hill Collins and Bilge ) have constituted the spatial logics animating political‐economic processes connected to city‐building. We illustrate this by excavating a genealogy of settler colonialism in OTR that emphasises the spatio‐temporal shifts in 3CDC's strategies for remaking the neighbourhood and the experiences of OTR residents and activists (also see Kern ).…”

Social mix policies have emerged as a prominent mechanism to legitimate neighbourhood redevelopment efforts across the US. Despite integrationist rhetoric, results often disabuse marginalised communities of their claims to the city. This paper employs a hybrid spatio-temporal analysis at the intersection of political-economic theories of gentrification and post-colonial and Black geographies literatures to examine underlying cultural logics and affective experiences animating such processes of neighbourhood transformation, contestation, and succession. Reflecting on 15 years of experience researching Over-the-Rhine (OTR), Cincinnati, we contribute a stylised distinction between the foundational, mature, and ongoing legacies of urban settler colonial relations. Our account discloses the power geometries shaping neighbourhood space by illustrating the impact of the discourses, tactics, and strategies employed by pro-development actors and neighbourhood activists as OTR's socio-political landscape shifted over time. In conclusion, we engage the thorny questions these dynamics raise surrounding how inner-city neighbourhoods are theorised and struggled over after gentrification.Resumen: Pol ıticas de mezcla social han emergido como un mecanismo prominente para legitimar los esfuerzos de redesarrollo vecinal a lo largo de los Estados Unidos. A pesar de la ret orica integracionista, los resultados frecuentemente reniegan a las comunidades marginalizadas de sus derechos a la ciudad. Este art ıculo usa un an alisis h ıbrido espaciotemporal en la intersecci on de teor ıas pol ıtico-econ omicos y las literaturas poscoloniales y de las Afro-geograf ıas para examinar las l ogicas culturales subyacentes y las experiencias afectivas que animan tales procesos de transformaci on, contestaci on, y sucesi on vecinal. Bas andonos en 15 años de experiencia investigativa en Over-the-Rhine (OTR), Cincinnati, contribuimos con una distinci on estilizada entre los legados del "colonialismo de colonos" urbano, que pueden distinguirse entre legados fundacionales, maduros, o en proceso. Ilustrando el efecto de los discursos, t acticas y estrategias que han empleado los actores pro-desarrollo y las activistas vecinales a trav es de los cambios hist oricos en el paisaje sociopol ıtico en OTR, nuestra cr onica revela las geometr ıas del poder que dan forma al espacio vecinal. En conclusi on, abordamos las arduas preguntas planteadas por estas din amicas, preguntas acerca de c omo teorizar y c omo luchan por los barrios marginales despu es de la gentrificaci on.

“…As significant as intersections of gender, race, and class have been, intersectional analyses of gendered divisions of labor cannot be limited to considerations of this traditional trinity. Intersectional analyses should be “context‐driven” and remain sensitive to how individuals creatively navigate the historically contingent confluences of social inequalities that are salient in their households, communities, and societies (McKinzie and Richards 2019 ). By attending to these intersectional complexities, scholars and policy makers can better account for how ambivalent inequities between and among men and women are associated with gendered responses to socioecological disruptions such as the ongoing pandemic (Leap 2019 ).…”

Across a range of countries, analysts have found that adaptations to the COVID‐19 pandemic often exacerbated previously existing labor inequalities between men and women in formal employment markets and households. This has been especially true for mothers with children in their households. Drawing on decades of sociological and feminist scholarship on labor, we suggest the following three strategies to strengthen ongoing research concerning pandemic‐induced reorganizations of gendered labor. First, ongoing research should expand considerations of gendered labor to account for more types of work and workers. Second, initial findings should be extended through the continued utilization of diverse methodologies to better account for the ambivalent experiences and meanings associated with emergent reorganizations of gendered work during the pandemic. Finally, ongoing research should pursue intersectional analyses of gendered labor that are sensitive to the complex dynamics of place and time. By expanding and strengthening considerations of gendered labor in these manners, ongoing analyses could generate more comprehensive, precise findings that better guide policy interventions meant to address the gendered inequities being sharpened by the pandemic. Foundational theoretical understandings of gendered labor and its associated inequalities could also be extended.
