Be nice to see a polish of this essay w/o the heavy academic prose. Important to stress intersectional theory's conflict w/ shared humanity.

I don't think there is heavy academic prose! I can't talk abt postcolonialism & orientalism without naming them but I did explain them.

Intersectional theory is designed to be shielded from the layman's blunt empiricism so I'd like to see a more colloquial deconstruction.

Not really. I'm trying to make complicated and obscure theory accessible to ppl without the background or inclination to read it.

I hear you. I just don't think you have to dumb it down.
