Disappearing Acts: Reclaiming Intersectionality in the Social Sciences in a Post-Black Feminist Era

Alexander-Floyd, Nikol G.·2012·Feminist Formations

Abstract

The article investigates how post-black feminist definitions of intersectionality in the social sciences have "disappeared" black women as knowledge producers and subjects of investigation. This post-black feminist turn in theorizing intersectionality is assessed in terms of the rhetorical strategies critiqued by Kimberlé Crenshaw (1989, 1990-91) in her foundational work on intersectionality, demonstrating how the very strategies she identified as hegemonic limitations to black feminism have been incorporated into social science work produced in the name of intersectional investigation, thus re-subjugating black women's knowledge. A reconstructive liberatory project in the name of intersectionality is suggested that would entail scholars across the disciplines implementing hermeneutical and/or narrative methodologies that center on black women's subjectivity.

  • Crenshaw and some other feminist theorists continue to center intersectionality theory on the identity category of Black women and their experiences of intersecting racism and sexism.

    “Although Crenshaw and some other feminist theorists continue to center intersectionality theory on the identity category of Black women and their experiences of intersecting racism and sexism (Alexander-Floyd, 2012:11;May, 2014:24;McCall, 2005McCall, :1774;;Nash, 2014b:46), some theorists have re-framed intersectionality as a theory of the complexity of intersecting identities and power dynamics (”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
