The Crenshaw Conflation Principle

identity power
in its submissive
victim form
 
Helps you hold on  
to differences
by scapegoating  
 
hard working males
labeled too pale
 
don’t get to choose
an identity  
that gets respect
 
as they are told
what to think
 
Feteshizing  
them into  
unwanted symbols  
 
of domination
calling it oppression  
 
while denying them
any dignity  
with their position  
 
like the truth  
of shared life
 
in humanity
