In Intersectional Identities of Christian Women in the United States: Faith, Race, and Feminism, Amanda Hernandez explores the complex relationship between Christianity and feminism in the United States. Often, feminism and faith are seen as contradictory to each other. Through sociological analysis that includes content analysis, survey data, and interviews with over forty Christian women, the author argues this seeming contradiction is rooted in white supremacy. Further, she examines how whiteness, racism, and experiences of sexism shape feminist identities in religious contexts. By centering the experiences of Christian women, this study challenges existing narratives and calls for a more nuanced understanding, of feminism and faith in the United States.
