Here at Mojatu, we’re committed to raising awareness of the adversity faced by disadvantaged communities in Nottingham. For this issue, we’ve covered a number of different challenges including sexism, Islamophobia, poverty, inequalities within the criminal justice system, and problems faced by neurodivergent people and those living with chronic mental health disorders.
When trying to understand and overcome these issues, it’s important to recognise that they aren’t always mutually
exclusive. ‘Intersectionality’ is a key illustrative term hereand refers to how the various facets of a person’s identity
can overlap and often multiply the discrimination they may face. We’ve explored this concept in a number of different articles throughout the magazine, and we hope that this information will help to signpost any support available and inspire greater compassion among allies and positive bystanders.
