由于性别、种族和阶级不平等而导致的社会排斥可能是与发展多样化的信息技术（IT）劳动力相关的最紧迫的挑战之一。妇女在IT劳动力和为学生从事IT职业做准备的大学专业中的代表性仍然不足。关于妇女在信息技术领域代表性不足的研究通常假设妇女在性质上是同质的，这使得研究对妇女之间存在的差异视而不见。本文旨在解决这些问题。设计/方法/途径-本文通过调查性别、种族、性别和性别的交叉如何挑战异质性的假设。和阶级身份塑造了美国黑人女性IT工作者和学习者的经历。这种Meta分析的结果提供了新的理论化方法，提供了对社会排斥和各种解放实践的微妙理解，组暴露于压迫。独创性/价值-这项研究对联合国…
Purpose – Social exclusion as a result of gender, race, and class inequality is perhaps one of the most pressing challenges associated with the development of a diverse information technology (IT) workforce.
