THIS IS REVOLUTION＞podcast Ep. 291: Interrogating Intersectionality w/ Jen Pan of Jacobin

One of the terms of art that has become popularized in the current age of hyper politics is intersectionality. A notion created by academic Kimberle Crenshaw that arose in conjunction with critical race theory, intersectionality became so popular it was weaponized by Hillary Clinton in her 2016 presidential election bid. Is intersectionality anything more than a plea for equality of distribution, recognition, and opportunity in a capitalist political economy that is rooted inequality and exploitation. Is this simply an identitarian plea for inclusion in the seating among the deck chairs of the titanic?   About TIR Thank you, guys, again for taking the time to check this out.
