    “…Indeed, last year, Al Jazeera’s leaked undercover documentary The Lobby–USA revealed how the Israeli government and its lobby worked to disrupt the Black Lives Matter movement in retaliation for Black solidarity with Palestine.

    The term intersectionality was coined by scholar Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989 to describe a feminist perspective that explains how individuals or communities experience overlapping systems of oppression based on gender, race, ethnicity and other socioeconomic factors.

    In recent years, intersectionality has become a guiding principle for organizers to build more powerful cross-community coalitions to fight white supremacy, mass incarceration, police violence, economic inequality and anti-immigrant policies.

    But in a new report, Israel’s Reut Institute and the US-based Jewish Council for Public Affairs warn that intersectionality “undermines Jewish communities’ agendas, including support for the State of Israel.”
