Intersectionality 101 explores feminism through an analysis of South Asian identity, combining personal narratives with abstract theoretical analysis. This book analyzes how frameworks often developed in the west, when applied to South Asian women often are blanketed and fall short of their caste, religion, diaspora, family structures and colorism. Blending popular critique with the author's personal reflection, the work compares Western feminist thought and history with South Asian feminist movements, drawing similarities between thinkers, activists and cultural rituals from across regions. Topics include arranged marriage, gendered labor, religious expectations, caste discrimination, and diasporic tensions.The book bridges gaps between theory and lived experience and offers an accessible approach to intersectional feminism that centers voices often excluded from dominant conversations.
