      Intersectionality helps you answer the "Is it a race thing or is a woman thing?" question. It's both.

      When it comes to woc, and to black women esp, we sometimes have a difficult time distinguishing what kind of discrimination she's facing.

      And, by discrimination, I mean what she's facing on an institutional and personal level. Not just today, but for her entire life.

      But there examples everywhere. Just think about Jasmine Abdullah Richards and Brock Turner. The disparity is stunning.

      Jasmine Abdullah Richards, a young black woman, was convicted of FELONY LYNCHING—all for protesting a Pasadena cop killing Kendrec McDade!

      Video clearly shows that Jasmine was only trying to help a friend from getting beaten by Pasadena cops who kills black people like nothing.

      Contrast what's happening to Brock Turner, a young white man convicted of rape; 3 counts of sexual assault. Which he committed in public.

      Brock Turner, a convicted rapist, has been treated like a baby by the courts and by the media. And he was only sentenced to six months.

      Brock's father has cried about how he can no longer buy his son steak. The entire thing is so ludicrous.

      This is how intersectionality works: not only for Jasmine (who is a woman, who is black), but also for Brock (who is a man, who is white).

          We tend to limit intersectionality to the oppression of women of color. But it's useful to apply it to the privilege that white men hold.
