Abstract

Gender roles are determined by expectations and values within society, which can lead to stereotypes and
prejudice. Stereotypes are judgments that are considered correct for a group, while racial stereotypes are
assumptions about all people of the same race. These racial stereotypes can make life difficult for women.
This research aims to analyze the inequality expressed in Girl, Woman, Other and how the disparity occurs in
society.
The study employs Kimberle Crenshaw's Black Feminism theory. Moreover, this study uses a qualitative
descriptive research method to analyze the novel. The information, approach, and theories are drawn from
books, dictionaries, internet sources, journals, encyclopedias, and other primary and secondary sources. The
primary data is the novel Girl, Woman, Other.
The result of this study is that the novel Girl, Woman, Other clearly illustrates that inequality occurs not only
because there is one identity that is owned but because each character owns several intersecting social
identities. Race, gender, class, and sexual orientation that intersect with one another are the leading causes of
the inequalities experienced by the characters in Girl, Woman, Other. The inequality experienced by the six
characters causes them to struggle to gain equality in society as human beings
