For example, black trans women experience life in America in a way that's different from how black cis-women or how white trans-women experience life in America. A gay white Mormon experiences life differently in the church than a straight black Mormon. Just one utility of such a framework is that it gives us that much more cause to come together in solidarity. Remember, an injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere; thus, it's incumbent upon all of us to see common cause with one another. Otherwise, we all face the risk of being divvied up at our mutual, collective expense.
