The concept of Intersectionality was first established in 1989 by Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw as a framework to understand the oppression of African-American women. Twenty-eight years later, the concept further gained mainstream attention during the 2017 Women’s March on Washington DC. Intersectionality does not examine a single identity one may associate with, such as race or gender, in a vacuum. Rather, it highlights what happens when multiple identities (as we all associate with) collide and lead to unique forms of discrimination. Without this acknowledgement, movements such as LGBTQ+ rights, women's rights, Black Lives Matter, Stop-Asian-Hate, climate justice, and disability rights may appear to be disconnected when in fact they are intertwined.
