Intersectional organizing: Building solidarity through radical confrontation

Abstract: IR scholars reference intersectionality in relation to organizing, but the field lacks a theoretical construct. Based on 2 years of intimate data access, we examine the 2017 U.S. Women's March as a critical case of “intersectional organizing.” We ground this empirical case study in Critical Race and Intersectionality Theory to show how the intersectional organizing model employed by the Women's March handles identity‐based fragmentation, with lessons for building a more inclusive labor movement.
