145: When & Why Diverse People Becomes Marginalized
Episode description
Series Title: How & Why Power Hierarchies Were Created [Part III of VI]
Welcome to part three of this diving into why and how human beings create hierarchies of power. So far in this series we have explained the psychological phenomenon itself, zoomed in on how this plays out on the ground in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and now we are going to spend the next two episodes walking through the six-step process of how humans create those groupings whom we choose to dominate, subjugate, and marginalize.
This episode tackles in detail the first three steps:
- Mark the difference in a group of people who are unlike yourself.
- Stigmatize the difference.
- Institutionalize the discrimination practiced against the group.
FRIDAY’S episode four tackles steps 4-6.
In these next two episodes (today’s and Fridays) Val and Nathan will offer both historical and current examples of how each of these steps in the creation of marginalized “out-group” populations looks both within the LDS faith and in other contexts.
Get ready to have your mind further expanded.
