Jess talking to Rory, the caption is "They don't necessarily, though, create a specificity of experience that is wholly separate from the experiences of people whose categorical aspects come together in other ways."
Jess talking to Rory, the caption is "I don't like the word 'intersection' very much, but I think what people who find Kimberlé Crenshaw's idea of intersectionality useful are trying to say is that there are multiple interactions that shape experience."
Lorelei Gilmore with the caption "All of those different categories of existence, which we all invoke all the time, together shape class."
Lorelei Gilmore with the caption "Class war is lived through the modalities of race, nation, national origin, sexuality, and gender."
Lorelei and Sookie with the caption "Abolition says clearly that this a central struggle in all class war."
Lorelei with the caption "What we will see are people who are struggling because of the organization of capitalist accumulation, whose need to control land, to have housing, to have food, to have water, to move around, to stay put, is shaped by the forces of organized violence."
The Democrats capitulation to the right on immigration and complete lack of vision on the issue is part of why we’re here. The damage it’s already done and will do is hard to fathom but somehow no lessons are learned.
A scene of Gilmore Girls with Rory and Lane with the caption "Taking that wider view through the lens of abolition, we can see that in any number of circumstances in which people are actually struggling, the contours of class will not necessarily reflect categorically something called the industrial proletariat."
A screencap of the show gilmore girls where Paris and Rory are at a graduation ceremony with the caption "Abolition compels us to look at how people are struggling, understand the organized abandonment that characterizes so much of everyday life under capitalism, and understand that such organized abandonment is maintained, bordered, and boundaried by the forces of organized violence."

4/5 To return to the NAIRU, in many ways, it comes back to something @rwgilmoregirls.bsky.social wrote in Golden Gulag--that the "[NAIRU's] sociological presence is bounded by the fatal coupling of power and difference.”
Lane and Rory from Gilmore Girls wearing pilgrim costumes. The caption is the Ruth Wilson Gilmore quote, “the word ‘discovery’ doesn’t sit well with anybody who knows anything about this history of the world.’”
A still from the show Gilmore Girls of Lorelei and Rory sitting on the couch. The caption is the Ruth Wilson Gilmore quote, "If it takes a village to raise a child, it certainly takes a movement to undo an occupation."
