"Rather than conceptualize our politics in terms of 'double' or 'triple' oppression, it should be seen as a hybridized form of political and cultural practice. By this I mean that precisely because of our lived experiences of discrimination in and exclusion from the white gay and lesbian community, and of the discrimination in and exclusion from the black community, we locate ourselves in the spaces between different communities--at the intersections of power relations determined by race, class, gender, and sexuality"
