So it was kind of a rhetorical question - what you're talking about exists but I don't think it's a coherent movement, just a tendency of people to forget that other people have problems beyond their own and not all women (or insert-other-demographic) have the same experience. The way anon worded it was weird because first they said "white feminists" (read: feminists who happen to be white) and later said "white feminism" which to me kind of implied that "white feminists" were actually members of a separate movement purposefully laid out.

And I think money has at least as much to do with exclusionary feminism as race, if not more, but unfortunately the two are somewhat correlated. Some people do tend to forget that poor white people exist, though.

Can definitely agree with this. Course, I'm sick to death of the patronizing, dismissive attitudes towards poor people in general. It's bad enough when average people spout off about how poor people "should behave" and scrutinize their behavior and actions. But hearing elected officials who are supposedly there to help take care of these problems making such ignorant and offensive comments about poor people REALLY pisses me off (Romney and his infamous "47%" comment, for example). The media discussion around the issue rarely ever helps, either.
