Understanding one another starts with understanding the various social intersections that make up our identities. Intersectionality, a concept developed by Kimberlé Crenshaw, analyzes how aspects of social location (gender, race, class, age, etc.) intersect and are linked, thereby creating multiple identities that relate to systems of oppression and marginalization (Carbado, Crenshaw, Mays, & Tomlinson, 2013). In this paper, the theme of intersectional identity will be explored using Janet Mock’s (2014) story as a case study, based off her book, Redefining Realness. Moreover, there will
Discrimination in the workplace continues to be topics and issues of discussion, despite efforts to minimize or eliminate its ugly head.

However, dispelling these protective forces around privilege is vital for combatting oppression and pursuing a socially just reality; as such, the pedagogy of privilege is a requirement in this endeavour. A close study of Janet Mock’s (2014) autobiography and current literature reveals three key areas as being vital for an informed discourse on the topic of privilege: the complexity of defining privilege, the necessity for breaking the silence and invisibility surrounding privilege, as well as the need to examine the intersection of both oppressed and privileged identities in order to understand how
