Contexto: "Intersectionality provides a complex ontology of “really useful knowledge,” which systemically reveals the everyday lives of black and ethnicized women who are simultaneously positioned in multiple structures of dominance and power as gendered, raced, classed, colonized, and sexualized “others.” Intersectionality signaled a move away from the inadequate additive models of double or triple jeopardy and the seemingly meaningless listing of never-ending hierarchies of multiple social positions and identities."
