This research explores the notion of intersectionality as a contemporary term in the field of sociology and political science, derived from feminist and racist studies. The failure of those approaches to tackle multilayered women difficulties comprehensively is due to their monistic perspective, ignoring the multidimensional situations of black and colored women, women of other ethnicities, in addition to illiterate or less educated women as well as immigrant and disabled ones. The inclusiveness of the term makes it applicable to other epistemological domains. The present study examines the concept of intersectionality in relation to the dramatic works of Lynn Nottage, an Afro-American writer involved in the depiction of black women troubles. Although many dramatists have tackled the cause before, the manipulation of Nottage is unique and unpredictable. Moreover, she introduces miscellaneous characters from different categories to foster her viewpoint. The research investigates her two plays, Ruined and By the Way, Meet Vera Stark to prove that not only black women of lower classes in colonialized countries or in countries of civil wars suffer from interlocking oppressions , but also women of middle classes and from imperial atmosphere witness numerous kinds of intersectionality.
