@Jairo_I_Funez Not defending Crenshaw's garbage politics but the way the term intersectionality is colloquially used now is much broader than what intersectionality theory was ever intended to describe. It is a framework designed to understand oppressive legal paradigms in the US, specifically.

@Jairo_I_Funez I guess my point is im not surprised her politics suck because intersectionality theory is extremely limited in scope and we should probs stop crediting her with the more expansive and inclusive definition of the word intersectionality which is diff from the definition she coined

Rosemary Amico @Jairo_I_Funez That's a totally fair point, she opened herself up to additional criticism, & I do think that criticism is warranted. I suppose my point is just that we evolved beyond the scope of her theory & politics, as opposed to like... Her backsliding & becoming a hypocrite or smth.

Me: identities based on nation states are so weird, how can an arbitrary border decide things. Also me: a stranger has thrown the javelin so my mental health is fixed for the week

Teaching term is approaching & maybe its time to recommend the Critical Legal Pocketbook to your freshfaced new law students? Fairly cheap paperback& pay what you can ebook-its a really helpful text to help them see through the politics of their law degree criticallegalthinking.com/2021/11/08/the…

PhDs would be cooler if instead of "Dr", you earned a more personalized title - Janet the Broke, Toby the Anxious, John the Caffeinated, etc.

Yes, I did choose to get a PhD and then pursue a job in academia, but I think it’s important to remember that I’m the victim here.

Dear Irish peeps, if you are interested in social movement, you might want to check this out. The historic, revolutionary force led by students brought about a transformative change, toppling a 15-year-long autocratic government in Bangladesh last month. I will discuss it at DCU.
