In recent years, the intersectional perspective has been highlighted in 
research focused on acknowledge how discrimination articulates by 
different structures of oppression. The perspective is widely 
disseminated by the ideas of American black jurist and feminist, 
Kimberlé Crenshaw, who systematized the concept of “intersectionality” 
in 1989 in the United States. In Brazil, and a few years earlier but 
still in the 1980s, Lélia Gonzalez already denounced the effects of the 
double oppression of sexism and racism over black women. Beyond 
universities, the concept has been appropriated by social movements. It 
also circulates in discourses on digital platforms that try to draw 
attention to the way these oppressions cross and structure the everyday 
practices of many people. Thus, this configures huge gaps in spaces of 
power and construction of knowledge. The debate on intersectionality and 
its effects in everyday lives finds fertile ground in digital platforms 
for the inclusion of diverse experiences and concrete experiences in 
view of the particularity of each person.

We announce a call for a special issue of Fronteiras Journal, a 
Brazil-based open access journal, on intersectionality and digital 
platforms. The special issue encourages submissions that explore one or
