Located at the intersection of multiple marginalities, US Latinas have often mobilized in ways that reflect this intersectional positioning. Their mobilization across and between various social movements is an important feature of their activism, which has been frequently overlooked, and studies that focus on this social movement intersectionality are an important means of locating it. But there are also important differences among Latinas, who may not all share the same intersectional locations or commitments. In this article, I argue the need for an open and expansive intersectional approach to studying US Latina activism, one that aims to identify and understand the intragroup differences in where, why, and how Latinas mobilize
