I think you are mixing up theoretical distinctions with empirical
separability. Empirically speaking, black female workers experience
_interlocking oppressions_ -- not exploitation, racial oppression, &
gender oppression separately. At the same time, however,
exploitation is theoretically different from racial & gender
oppressions which are not identical to each other either.
