The Hierarchy of Oppression

By John M.
Submitted image for project, The Hierarchy of Oppression
A graphic on the different struggles that minorities face that hold them down and places them in the corresponding level of oppression.

Producer Statement

A lot of society today is playing the Oppression Olympics; some try to downplay the experiences of other minorities by using their own ("I have it worse than you"), and others believe they are more oppressed than they really are. This piece of work is meant to showcase the different oppression that different minorities face and how bad they really have it.
