At Intersections, we are student-run and student-operated. We aim to prioritize underrepresented voices in academic writing, specifically focused on the areas of gender, sexuality, feminist, and social justice studies. We publish in two forms: a biannual print journal, featuring long-form academic and creative work, and a weekly online publication, which will feature opinion pieces, political commentary, film reviews, poetry, prose, podcasts, and many other forms of creative media. Our writers, editors and logisitcs team reach across disciplines to exemplify the power of interdisciplinary reseach. We are affiliated with the Institute for Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies (IGSF) and the Gender, Sexuality, Feminist, and Social Justice Student Association (GSFSSA) at McGill University.

MJFS operates out of McGill University, which is located on unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka. So called “Montreal” is known as Tiotia:ke in the language of the Kanien’kehá:ka and Mooniyang in Anishinaabemowin. Working within an institution like McGill necessitates a constant reflection about the land we are on, and how most of us benefit from these territories as settlers on this land. As a social-justice focussed publication, we always want to inform our work within these contexts. We encourage all our readers and community members to learn more and donate to organizations such as Resilience Montreal, the Native Women’s Shelter of Montreal and the Indigenous Health Centre of Tiohtià:ke.
