Julian SanchezThis is from Florida’s education commissioner, depressingly. Reflect for a moment on the incredible degree of intellectual insecurity it reveals.
People who are confident in the quality of their own arguments do not exhibit this terror of exposing students to thinkers they disagree with.
Also, FFS, if you do not even understand what “intersectionality” means, perhaps you should be taking the class rather than demanding it be banned.
Chris@normative This sort of re-definition is a direct response to the use of intersectionality as a defense of Critical Race Theory. When defending Critical Race Theory I often invoke intersectionality as a way to demonstrate the unfairness of its demonization.
By redefining intersectionality like this they create a false familiarity among those we seek to build understanding with.
