• Es importante y vital mantener esa educación para la conciencia crítica en torno a las interseccionalidades, para que la gente sea capaz de no centrarse en una cosa y culpar a un grupo, sino ser capaz de mirar holísticamente la forma en que la interseccionalidad nos informa a todos: blancura, género, preferencias sexuales, etc. Sólo entonces podremos tener una visión realista del mundo político y cultural en el que vivimos.

• There is a theory behind the culture of victimhood: It's called "intersectionality." This theory posits that racism, sexism, classism, ableism, etc. are interconnected, overlapping, and mutually reinforcing. Together they form a "matrix of oppression."

• Intersectionality has made an important contribution to social and political analysis, asking all of us to think about what assumptions of race and class we make when we speak about "women" or what assumptions of gender and race we make when we speak about "class." It allows us to unpack those categories and see the various kinds of social formations and power relations that constitute those categories.

• I think it's important for us to recognize that although historically black communities have been very progressive with respect to issues of race and with respect to struggles for racial equality, that does not necessarily translate into progressive positions on gender issues, progressive positions on issues of sexuality and in the latter 1990s we have to recognize the intersectionality, the interconnectedness of all of these institutions and attitudes.

• I guess I wish we could talk about: what does it mean to have a politics of intersectionality that also privileges what form of domination is most oppressing us at a given moment in time.

• Al principio de mi carrera hablé mucho de la interseccionalidad y de cómo el racismo, el clasismo, el sexismo, la homofobia y el capitalismo están conectados entre sí, y son estos sistemas locos que se alimentan unos a otros y también son perjudiciales. Ni siquiera puedo abarcar todo el espectro. Pero creo que los niños de hoy en día son mucho más conscientes de este tema. Me encanta conocer a gente joven que lo hace mucho mejor que yo.

• Of course, intersectionality theory is a confused muddle. It fights racism and sexism by classifying everyone according to race and sex. It views race and gender privilege as the root of all evil, while ignoring the role played by dogmatic ideologies held by all genders. And it is unfalsifiable - to its adherents, criticism and rejection of the theory actually demonstrate its truth, by showing how deeply we all have internalized our oppression.

• Comics are reflective of what's going on in larger culture. Wonder Woman came to be in her position when women were first entering the workplace in numbers during the war. Then Wonder Woman had another rise in the '70s when Gloria Steinem latched on to her as an icon for the [feminist] movement. I think we're seeing another wave of feminism today, a fourth wave characterized by intersectionality and the internet. And I think it falls right in line that we would see another wave of superheroines coming to the fore.

• La interseccionalidad puede sonar como una desafortunada dolencia intestinal que obligue a utilizar abundantemente una bolsa de colostomía, y de hecho contiene una gran cantidad de excrementos.

• She [Hillary Clinton] knows the people well. I think there is - you know, also talking about breaking down barriers and talking about that, whether we`re talking about that in economic terms. I mean, she`s the only person who has been out there talking about white privilege and talking about sort of the intersectionality of some of these issues.
