A few of you may already know that I’m studying online fandom for my PhD project. Specifically, I’m using Harry Potter and Doctor Who fan podcasts to explore the ways in which they raise awareness about intersectionality. (Thread) Intersectionality analyses the ways in which a person’s life is significantly better or worse based on where they live and on their social category (gender, race, class, sexual orientation etc.).

You can find details about my project on my PhD blog:
