In human nature it’s sometimes hard for two races or cultures to be in one unite because one can not understand the other. Without people being united nothing can be accomplished, there will always be conflicts and nothing would go on and on. Example, If we go back in Huck Finn we realize that though Huck and Jim were strangers to each other, they had to find a way to be united, to work things together. Also another, example from Long Walk to Freedom, before Mandela went to prison the third time, he and his comrades from the ANC campaign, they figured that if they don’t come up with a plan, the whites will take everything from them.

In our Society, we deal with many form of oppression in our daily lives. Unfortunately, different groups of people are more oppressed than others. Oppression is the unjust treatment of a group of people. I believe, our government is a major culprit as they are responsible for oppressing most of society. This involves many groups, such as single mothers, the working class, African Americans, gays and lesbians. In my paper, my personal views will be addressed incorporating ideas from several readings pertaining to different forms of oppression. A summarization of each article will be provided as well.

This research paper will outline the causes and traits of oppression in America.

It’s important to acknowledge the historical context when understanding oppression because oppression always has its roots somewhere; no one is oppressed just because. Marginalization of minority groups in the past, and even today, has a purpose—not necessarily a good purpose, though. The purpose was usually for power; majority groups wanted to be the standard for good, resulting in the dehumanization of minority groups. Therefore, to understand fully why the oppression still stands today, it’s important to look back on how it started. That way, we can see why it still persists in our society; is its original purpose still being pursued but in a less physical way like in the past? And, is it still affecting the same people today, even to a

The aim of this essay is to address the problem of inequality and oppression through three separate texts, The Second Sex, The Death of the Profane and Killing Rage.
