The Importance Of Oppression In Society

Oppression, injustice, and privilege are terms that tie into our basic social interactions and internal feelings. However, they are all interrelated and work together to form the basis of society and change the ways that we interact. When someone has the feelings of injustice or oppression, they often present more or different struggles than the majority group that is against them. One of the bases of where these two ideas start is with privilege for a group or people. Privileges, for people, are certain rights or actions that they are given the ability to do.

It seems like oppression hits bigger target groups rather than smaller ones where I might feel more different than other people. For instance, being a female might be a bigger targeted group that I am a part of.
