An event that could be used for this example is that of colonialism. The most common view is that Europeans had a desire for exploration and finding new markets in other places of the world. They were able to use their technology in order to fuel this exploration, and when they encountered people in other countries, they dominated them due to their imperialist beliefs and their desire for wealth.

From a Marxist perspective, we could see colonialism as a struggle of different classes. Those who own the means of production of the world (colonizers) dominate those who only have their labor (locals) and they profit from their work without working themselves. The hierarchical and political structures that are then implemented are designed to maintain this status quo.

The interpretation of this event through different lenses affects the view we have of it. In the first case, the event is not as premeditated, economics plays a smaller role and the focus is on culture. From the second perspective, the event is seen as primarily economically motivated. Neither perspective is necessarily right or wrong.

Well everyone has different point of veiws.so you might find it meaningless while she thinks not of it.for example the women rights movement,men or other women saw it pointless that women should vote or get any of the privileges that men have or get. so lets say you thought that it was cool that the women stood up and fought like that but your friend didn't find it interesting that is different perspectives. correct me if i am  wrong.
