Intersectionality as a Solution to Combat the Polarization in the United States

Abstract

The United States in the 21st century is experiencing a great divide that could potentially tear the fabric of our government and challenge our humanity. This document seeks to further define intersectionality in contemporary contexts, given that intersectionality now faces battles in the fields of globalization, new civil rights movements and an unprecedented change in the government of the United States. To solve this problem, we can return to intersectionality within the individual; having diversity within oneself helps to better understand the personal circumstances of other people. When we help open the doors to the "other" and start listening to other voices, American could begin to repair the division and take responsibility for those marginalized by the government of the United States.
