Part 1
Intersectionality is considered as the acknowledgement that within groups of individuals
with common identity. These common identities range from attributes related to gender,
sexuality, religion or racial characteristics. Yuval-Davis has noted that each individual is likely
to experience social structure differently as the intersection of identities tends to signify an
interaction of overlapping oppressions. As a result, varied generalizations regarding the struggle
of power of specific social group shows incompetence in identifying individuals in the group
further belong to other social groups and tend to experience other forms of seclusion and
marginalization. The concept of intersectionality particularly relates to the formulation of
multifaceted inequalities witnessed in relations of hierarchisation and stratification. Such forms
of inequalities mainly incorporate unequal resource of allocation along with scales of value in
addition to practices related to ethics, principles, morality and stigma. Meanwhile, Cooper has
expanded that intersectional approach which has been stating that subcultures require addressing
the issues of class, race and ethnicity along with sex and gender, social ecology in addition to the
issues related to adolescence and human growth and development which have already been
intersecting. However, de Vries, Kylan has noted when scholars show incompetence in
embracing intersectional approach to sub cultural studies; they tend to show a risk of undervalue
identities and misinterpreting oppression which contribute to practices of subculture. On the
other hand, Schilt and Lagos have discussed certain theoretical and methodical challenges of
perceiving gender, sexual orientation and power through an intersectional lens. Meanwhile, there
is an abundance of recent writing on concept of intersectionality which has indicated to the
limitations of certain existing intersectionality frames and further attempting to offer improved
theoretical as well as methodological foundations.

von Doussa, Power and Riggs have cited example of hip hop culture which shows the
highly multifaceted and contradictory identities which create legitimacy within a subculture
closely associated with music and media. According to Haupt, hip hop has been historically a
form of black cultural expression as illustrated by the typical race-based distinction of which
individual is ‘permitted’ to use certain language. The renowned word ‘nigga’ is linked to one of
the most powerful word of hip hop culture and is considered as valuable as a status symbol as
well as resource for the individuals who have the allowance to use it facility and a means of both
dividing authentic singers from fake and creating race based distinctions between diverse groups
of rappers. Nonetheless, in the view of Johnson and Boylorn such a norm for legitimacy does not
necessarily position black women above white men. Haupt has noted that the value of
intersectionality sheds light on the social change and further proposes the term transactional
intersectionality. von Doussa, Power and Riggs have noted that the positions taken scope from
the notion stating that intersectionality has been considered the most effective means of
exploring the multidimensional as well as complex articulation of forms of social division and
identity. Such explorations tend to perceived through the view that intersectionality serves as a
constructive slogan but fails to aim of having theoretical aspects. Moreover, as per Stewart, Frost
and Edgell, intersectionality is likely to condense all forms of divergences and serves them with
utmost equivalence.

Several feminist scholarships have recognised the varied ways through which gender,
race, ethnicity, status along with other diversity indicators have leveraged the preferences
individuals make. According to Bilge, the way to capture collectively intersecting points of
socially ascribed categories of difference is known as intersectionality. At this point of the
