Journalism as an intersectional form of knowledge: a reflection on new and necessary crossings

Through a literature review in the Scopus and Web of Science databases, to verify the incidence of recent investigations that relate intersectional aspects and journalism, 126 materials were compiled for analysis. The categorization and systematization of the corpus revealed a thematic set and a map of contributions to think about journalism as an intersectional form of knowledge, seeking to expand the reflections of Adelmo Genro Filho (2012). Among the results of this effort, there is a greater concern about the study of the role of women in journalism, to the detriment of the erasure of people with other identities positioned. It was also identified that the adoption of the intersectional perspective, inspired by Gonzalez (2011), allows us to reflect on the need to diversify access to the profession as a response to the desires that the complex society begins to express.
