Which article are you evaluating?
Intersectionality

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because intersectionality is an significant theoretical framework used by feminist scholars within the feminist movement. This article is important because it helps to bring awareness of feminist theory, with intersectionality being the main example, to the general public and may also provide the public with this tool of analysis. My preliminary impression is that the article does provide a basic understanding of this theory and its value in feminist analysis but may still require further analysis into the development and use of the theory within the wider feminist movement.

Evaluate the article
The lead section does include an introductory sentence that identifies and describes the article's topic. The lead section may be overly detailed in its multiple paragraphs that seem to recap the sections to be further discussed later in the article. These paragraphs could be condensed for a more conscience to make for a more introductory lead section.

The article does appear to be neutral and provide citations to multiple outside sources as references throughout the piece. The article could include further information on the challenges faced by Black feminist scholars in the wider feminist movement and how Black feminists, even though they are the first to have developed the theory of intersectionality, were left out of these important conversations. There could also include more information on the input of other feminists of color and their experiences with developing and/or using an intersectional lens in their work. The article can benefit from further development and more diverse input on the topic of intersectionality and its significance theoretical analysis of structures of oppression and discrimination.
