While the article touches directly on a couple valid points (if you're being a humanitarian, consult with the people you're trying to help, and alot of people, of alot of shades of political opinion can advocate for things without anticipating or having a clue about their consequences), primarily the article is Ms. Zakaria's exercise in showing that in her bench of intersectionality square, racialized anticolonial "melanin solidarity glue" is thicker than "menstrual blood sisterhood."
Actually, from a quick scan of the comments, most of The Nation readers who chose to comment were able to see through her pretty much.
