Deborah K. King

Deborah King, associate professor of sociology at Dartmouth College, is completing a book on the enforcement of affirmative action policies in American higher education. Her groundbreaking essay, “Multiple Jeopardy: The Context of a Black Feminist Ideology” (Signs, August 1988), is an important contribution to black feminist theory, which goes beyond the triple jeopardy thesis to describe the nature of black womanhood. She argues that the oppressions black women experience are not additive but intersecting, so that “multiple jeopardy” is a more useful metaphor to describe the black female experience.
