Question 1
1.

Match each scenario or definition with the correct "I" of oppression.

  • A person of color doesn't speak up in a meeting because they think their contributions to the discussion won't be important or correct.
  • The idea that one group is better and has the right to control the other gets embedded in the institutions of the society: laws, education, media, etc.
  • The oppressor doesn't have to exert any more pressure, because we now do it to ourselves and each other.
  • The idea of being better and controlling others gives permission for individual members of the dominant group to personally mistreat individuals in the targeted/oppressed group.
  • A student is bullied for being gay.
  • The belief that women are weaker than men.
  • The idea that one group is somehow better than another, and in some measure has the right to control the other group.
  • Police using racial profiling.
  • Ideological
  • Institutional
  • Interpersonal
