===== Definition ===== 

Intraracial postcolonial segregation refers to the division or separation of different groups within a racial or ethnic category, particularly in the context of societies that have experienced colonization and its aftermath. Unlike traditional racial segregation, which involves separation between different racial groups, intraracial segregation occurs within a single racial or ethnic group.

In postcolonial contexts, intraracial segregation can arise due to various factors, including historical legacies of colonialism, socio-economic disparities, cultural differences, and power dynamics within the community. These divisions can manifest in different ways, such as disparities in wealth, education, access to resources, social status, and political representation among different subgroups within the same racial or ethnic category.

For example, in some postcolonial societies, there may be divisions between indigenous populations and descendants of colonizers or settlers, between different ethnic groups within the same broader racial category, or between urban and rural communities. These divisions can perpetuate inequalities and power imbalances within the community, even as it collectively faces challenges related to colonialism, discrimination, and socio-economic development.

Efforts to address intraracial postcolonial segregation often involve initiatives aimed at promoting social cohesion, economic equity, cultural recognition, and political representation for marginalized groups within the broader racial or ethnic community. These may include policies to address historical injustices, promote inclusive governance structures, support community development projects, and foster dialogue and reconciliation among different subgroups.
