Across government memos and wide-ranging agency material, hundreds of terms and ideas have been explicitly or implicitly forbidden from use. These terms include words like “accessible” or “activism.” Another example? Intersectionality. It’s been nearly 40 years since Kimberlé Crenshaw coined the term “intersectionality.” And in that time, the word has been twisted into something barely recognizable. We spoke with Crenshaw about her work, her new book, and how her past has given her the strength to keep talking back. And in headlines, Iran responds to the latest U.S. ceasefire proposal , Democrats respond to the Virginia Supreme Court ruling on redistricting , and the cruise ship roiled by hantavirus anchors in the Canary Islands .Show Notes: Check out Kimberlé's book – https://tinyurl.com/4ndwy3rx Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/where-it-all-starts-7043127/episodes/the-gentrification-of-intersectionality/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/where-it-all-starts-7043127/the-gentrification-of-intersectionality.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
