Intersectional analysis of female characters from different ethnic groups. Netflix Miniseries Case Study

Introduction and purpose. The intersectionality underpins this research based on three narratives broadcast on the Netflix platform, which address topics that bring together concepts about women of color, diverse ethnicities, communities traditionally considered as marginal, the search for freedom, in the face of hegemonic and regulated fanaticism, the political struggle for the recovery of justice, by the hand of women who break the traditional patterns of representation assuming a paradigm shift. Objectives and Methodology. Based on approaches (Hill Collins, Bilge, 2016 or Braidotti, 2019) of macro and micro sociological analysis, a qualitative content study has been conducted, applied to the three series-Unorthodox, Kalifat and Black Earth Rising-, establishing the interrelationship between concepts in pursuit of social justice. The fundamental descriptors have been ethnicity, body, sexuality, marriage, religion and social. The results and their discussion. The results suggest a clear change in archetypes. The macro analysis of the study highlights power relations from an intersectionality perspective showing how women protagonists were subjected to oppressive structures. The micro analysis shows that there is a deconstruction of these through women who manage to transgress these oppressive networks. Contribution and originality of the contribution. A paradigm shift in the traditional treatment of miniseries with a shift towards women's empowerment.
