The Four I's of Oppression Cassie Abatecola
In my FNED 246 class, we were tasked with reading and watching a video on The-Four-Is-of-Oppression. The reading discusses how some social groups face oppression while others enjoy privilege. It's appalling that some people believe it is acceptable to treat others badly. Anyone could be dealing with struggles that are unknown to others. It's completely unacceptable to mistreat someone based on their thoughts, opinions, race, gender, or culture. We live in a world filled with hatred towards others, where people think it's acceptable to walk all over someone instead of helping them. People can be incredibly disrespectful, making others feel like they don't belong without giving them a chance to speak for themselves. Everyone comes from a different background and may have been raised differently from you. Why go out of your way to make someone's day worse? Instead, uplift others and make them smile. A positive comment could significantly impact someone's day. By understanding these forms, we can better spot and tackle systematic oppression to build a more inclusive society. These levels are linked, making oppressed groups feel open to judgment and ridicule. After reading this, I realized how overlooked the system of oppression is and decided I want to avoid it in my classroom at all costs.
Great Graphic, Good Job

ReplyDeleteI like that you understand how people are affected everyday through systemic oppressions, and how you explain a way to avoid feeding into this problem.
