Solution

The theory of intersectionality says that a person / set of people / a problem occurs by a multiple number of discriminating factors and disadvantages i.e., race,color,religion,ethnicity,sexual orientation,gender,etc.,

Example:

Recently in an article published in a leading newspaper in the US claimed that Oracle has discriminated and provided more jobs to Asians in comparision to the US citizens and that the US citizens are discriminated.Although the Asians were hired at comparitively lower compensations.So,this is an example of discrimination based on race.

A survey in the US showed that for every $1 income that a white man earns, white woman , black man and black woman are only earning $0.78 , $0.74 and $0.64 respectively. So,this is yet an another example of discrimination at the workplace based on the gender and color
