Intersectionalism includes class analysis. Radfems are just updated 2nd wavers, basically

It should do. In practice , it often focuses on race & gender identity & neglects class coz then white men cld be disadvantaged too.

It's an ideology. If people apply its foundations wrong, that's not really the ideology failing, but people co-opting it for an agenda.

Has Crenshaw focused much on class apart from when affecting ppl with a marginalised identity?

Not that I have seen. This class inclusive intersectionalism is mostly happening in progressive left, Socialist, Marxist, Anarchist circles.

Ah. You're from that school of thought. It was Crenshaw who coined the term & then critical race theory & it is this branch I refer to.

Did the radical left have their own definition of intersectionality from the start or did it adopt the term & apply it more fully?

For a lot of these center-leftists, discussion of class is not only taboo because of ID politics, but also because they are capitalist.
