ELI5: What is intersectionality and why is it a buzzword among activists?
gpt
Intersectionality means that we have numerous and diverse aspects of our identity, not merely one.

For example, you have a race but that is not the only thing which defines you. You have a gender too, a faith perhaps, a nationality, an age, a career, and many different aspects of your character. Intersectionality means that none of us are merely “one sort of thing”.

Intersectionality is being promoted today not only by “activists” but by Human Resources professionals in an attempt to combat the single-minded nature of “Identity Politics” which compels us to view ourselves and others as stereotypes who have only one thing defining them.
