Yes. Not explicitly but in effect, yes. Also, anti-racist goals were sexist. The argument is that when people spoke of 'women' they meant white women and when they spoke of 'blacks' they meant men. The unique problems of black women were getting missed.

Yes. We don't need a theory for that. We just need that idea. Crenshaw explicitly discouraged individuality & shared humanity. She frowned upon 'I am a person who happens to be black' & advocated 'I am black.' She criticised universal liberalism for trying to overcome categories

Nice “steel manning “ of Chrenshaw’s worldview. You last paragraph has me wanting more from you on your critique of her thesis. Do I need to read the whole paper for that?

Its still in scrappy note form. It's 10,000 words and I don't know what I'd do with it. I look at those five aims.
