    People also don’t appreciate intersectionality. Like a gay, black woman doesn’t just have to navigate the same issues as a gay person, a black person and a woman but also has to navigate issues specific to being a gay woman, a black woman and being black & gay. Its a cumulative thing that those from more privileged or common positions don’t get those other interplays and combinations and the additional complexity that adds to that person’s life.
