आज़ादी की लड़ाई के दौरान ही यह मुद्दा बार-बार उठा कि आज़ाद भारत में अछूत कही जाने वाली जातियों की स्थिति क्या होगी? फुले-पेरियार-अंबेडकर के आंदोलनों ने जाति प्रश्न को प्रमुखता से उभारा तो गांधी का छुआछूत विरोधी आंदोलन इसका ही एक और आयाम था। आज़ादी के बाद संविधान बना तो दलितों-आदिवासियों के समुचित प्रतिनिधित्व के लिए नौकरियों और संसद में आरक्षण की जो व्यवस्था की गई वह शुरू से ही वर्चस्वशाली जातियों के प्रतिनिधियों की आँखों की किरकिरी बनी रही।

You have a voice. And you have God's permission to use it. In some communities, certain voices are amplified and elevated while others are erased and suppressed. It can be hard to speak up, especially in the ugliness of social media. Power dynamics keep us silent and marginalized, especially when race, ethnicity, and gender are factors. What can we do about it? Activist Kathy Khang roots our voice and identity in the image of God. Because God created us in our ethnicity and gender, our voice is uniquely expressed through the totality of who we are.

Imagine a workplace where workers enjoyed a well-paid job for life, one where they could start their day with a pint of stout and a smoke, and enjoy free meals in silver service canteens and restaurants. During their breaks they could explore acres of parkland planted with hundreds of trees and thousands of shrubs. This is no fantasy or utopian vision of work but a description of the working conditions enjoyed by employees at the Guinness brewery established at Park Royal in West London in the mid-1930s.

The greater Latino community did not often accept sexual minorities, and the mainstream LGBT movement expected everyone, regardless of their ethnic and racial background, to adhere to a specific set of priorities so as to accommodate a “unified” agenda. To disrupt the cycle of sexism, racism, and homophobia that they experienced, LGBT Latinas/os organized themselves on local, state, and national levels.

This allows psychologists and social theorists to share their insights through concepts equally valid in either domain.

In 1947, when this pamphlet was written, the ghastly memory of the Holocaust was fresh in the public mind. The author explores this climatic catastrophe of racial persecution to reveal it not as an anomalous occurrence, but rather as the evidence of a form of institutionalized prejudice which had operated for more than a millennium. “Humanity,” McCabe argues, “will enter into full and friendly cooperation only when the myths disappear and pure humanism is the base of man’s standard of conduct.”
