Abstract
In this introduction to the special issue on Anti-Racism and Intersectionality in Feminist Criminology and Academia, we describe the Virtual Forum of the same name that inspired the special issue. The June 4, 2021 Forum was organized by an ad hoc committee of the American Society of Criminology's Division on Women & Crime's Diversity & Inclusion Committee and featured over 100 presenters. We also outline the contributions to the special issue, which contain concrete recommendations on how to improve our discipline, our research, our mentorship, our departments, and our universities. Finally, we included two beautiful tributes on the legacy of bell hooks, in light of her December 2021 passing. We hope that readers will find the contributions to this special issue informative and beneficial as they work to advance antiracist and intersectional ideas and practices within criminology, feminist criminology and academia.
