"Prejudice and discrimination directed toward a group and perpetuated by ideologies and practices of multiple social institutions is <u>oppression</u>."
<h3>What is oppression in forms of discrimination?</h3>
Prejudice is frequently mistaken for discrimination or for oppressive ideologies like racism and sexism. Anyone can harbor prejudice, even though discrimination and oppression are traits of actions taken by dominant organizations against less powerful ones.
Racism was a major factor in the support of slavery. Slavery was justified by thoughts that black people were inferior, the concept that they felt less suffering and emotion, and racial notions about how black people behaved.
For most of American history, women were denied the ability to vote or to own property due to sexist beliefs about the intellectual and emotional inferiority of women. Ageism can be applied to both young and old persons.
Prejudices against young people, for instance, imply that they are unintelligent, unknowledgeable, or impetuous. Prejudices towards persons with impairments are still prevalent, according to ableists.
LGBTQ+ people's behavior and attitudes have long been the subject of prejudice, which has been used to support discriminatory laws.
