    Reach Everyone on the Planet..." - Kimberlé Crenshaw and Intersectionality
    • Thirty years ago, Prof. Kimberlé Crenshaw coined the term intersectionality, profoundly influencing social justice movements worldwide. The publication “Reach Everyone on the Planet …” by the Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ) and the Gunda Werner Institute honors her contributions to social justice and the lives of those at the intersections of multiple oppressions. This collection features texts from notable activists, critical thinkers, and academics across Germany and Europe. The contents include a welcome, introduction, and foreword, followed by a series of essays addressing various aspects of intersectionality. Kimberlé Crenshaw discusses the urgency of intersectionality, while Mîran Newroz Çelik reflects on its personal significance. Maisha-Maureen Auma explores Crenshaw’s influence on transformative justice, and Elena Chamorro examines ableism within the framework. Other contributors tackle topics such as racial capitalism, queer/trans politics, and the visibility of Black female professors in Europe. The collection also features reflections on migration, religion's intersection with race and gender, and the significance of language in social discourse. Each piece underscores the importance of intersectionality in understanding and addressing systemic inequalities, making a compelling case for its continued relevance in contemporary discussions on justice and equity.
