Dr. Chelsea Johnson is a children's book author, feminist sociologist, and user experience design researcher. Her journey into research began as at Spelman College, where she was introduced to feminism through writers like Audre Lorde and Patricia Hill Collins. She went on to study the politics of race, class, gender, and fashion at the University of Southern California, where she earned her PhD in sociology and gender studies in 2019. Dr. Johnson's overarching goal is to inform the development of just, equitable, and human-centered political strategies, design, media, scholarship, and artwork that reflect the situated knowledges and needs of our society’s most vulnerable populations. In this pursuit, she co-founded a public sociology organization, CLC Collective, with co-authors Carolyn Choi and LaToya Council. They have two children’s books about intersectionality: IntersectionAllies: We Make Room For All (2019) and Love without Bounds: An IntersectionAllies Book about Families (2023). Her newest book Natural: Black Beauty and the Politics of Hair is forthcoming from NYU Press October 2024. When not researching or writing, Dr. Johnson enjoys hiking, reading novels, exploring new art mediums, and eating her way through new cities.
