Lawyer Kimberlé Crenshaw coined the term intersectionality in 1993

Evidence

Crenshaw in her landmark law review article, “Mapping the Margins: Intersectionality, Identity Politics, and Violence against Women of Color,” Stanford Law Review 43 (1993): 1241, 1244. Crenshaw defines intersectionality as the various ways in which multiple social categories shape the complexity, and determine the vulnerability, of lived experiences. — Khaled A.
