What is interlocking oppression/intersectional analysis? th , 2015. Additive vs. interlocking models: additive model: salad we have different types of oppression, but dooes not understand how they support and require each other. If you take out the tomatoes, but it still has the salad. Taking or putting something in does not change it. Assumes that we must look at one oppression at a time: intersectional model: cake different ingredients are mixing -> transforms it into something else completely. We cannot understand forms of oppression if we look at them in their singularity, and cannot effectively fight against them. Argues that we must not look at issues separately: quote: sherene razack looking. Argues that interlocking is a better word than intersectional, because interlocking systems need one another. We learn how women are produced into positions that exist symbiotically but hierarchally. We begin to understand, how domestic worker and professional women exist.
