The Intersectional Other

Alex Rivera is psychologist and clinical director of Lotus Mental Health and editorial board member of The Counseling Psychologist.

Rivera delivers readers quite a gift, a generous offering, that might, indeed, deliver us. What Rivera inscribes onto the page is bound to make inroads in people's lives and in systems that impact us. And not only this, but there is, too, a profound sense of generative reconfiguration: a reconfiguration of what marginality can do, a reconfiguration in service of claiming and providing power for those who have been disallowed power. In that vein, this book is powerful. --Marquis Bey, Northwestern University and author of Black Trans Feminism
