I think the confusion here is a conflation of "racism" and "race based discrimination". Those aren't the same things. Racism might be a motive for race based discrimination, but isn't necessary for race based discrimination to occur
I'm not saying you did! You seem to be answering things that weren't said and not addressing what Crenshaw did say which was reported accurately in the article. Did you not see what the courts ruled & that it was decided this required a change in law & that that happened?

The article reported what Crenshaw wrote. I didn't say it mischaracterized Crenshaw. Obviously got her argument correct. My tweet was saying her argument mischaracterized the case.

This argument? I'm prepared to believe she could have got this wrong even tho she is a professor of law who focused on this because she was ideologically motivated. I don't understand your explanation tho. The law was later changed to fill this gap so it must have existed.pic.twitter.com/X5wVsbIhK6
