Is that fair to her, though? I mean, I absolutely agree that intersectionality is a major issue that entirely too many people just don't seem to comprehend. But I don't see this particular person saying that racism isn't as bad as homophobia or misogyny. I definitely have seen other people say that, and variations on that theme, but not in this particular instance. Granted, I'm coming at this as a straight white woman, but all I see Ursula saying is that we can take a day to celebrate our victories, and then go back to work.
I'm not saying you're wrong because you're NOT. I'm just not sure Ursula's post is the right one to single out as an example. (And I say that as someone who does not know Ursula at all. For all I know, it IS what she thinks, but I don't see it in that post.)
