<![CDATA[This study examines the representation of Black women through the perspective of intersectional feminism in The Six Triple Eight (2024). Although recent studies have explored women's representation and racial discrimination in historical films, limited attention has been given to how race and gender simultaneously shape Black women's experiences within military institutions. Addressing this gap, the study applies Kimberlé Crenshaw's theory of intersectionality to analyze the interaction between racism and sexism as represented in the film. A qualitative descriptive method was employed using film analysis. The primary data consisted of dialogues, character interactions, cinematic scenes, and visual representations extracted from the film, while secondary data were collected from books, journal articles, and previous studies related to intersectionality, Black feminism, and film studies. Data were collected through repeated observation, documentation, note-taking, thematic coding, and source triangulation to ensure the credibility of the findings. The analysis reveals that Black women experience multiple forms of institutional discrimination manifested through racial segregation, gender stereotyping, unequal treatment, institutional neglect, and the delegitimization of leadership. Despite these structural barriers, the members of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion demonstrate resilience through collective solidarity, professional excellence, strategic leadership, and disciplined resistance. The novelty of this study lies in applying intersectionality to a contemporary historical film that has received limited scholarly attention, demonstrating that Black women's experiences are shaped by intersecting systems of power rather than by race or gender independently. The findings contribute to feminist literary criticism and film studies by extending the application of intersectionality to military cinema and provide practical insights into the importance of inclusive historical representation in contemporary media.]]>
