Definition

Marginalized segregation refers to the systemic exclusion and segregation of certain groups of people based on their race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, or other factors. This can manifest in various forms, including unequal access to resources, services, and opportunities, as well as physical separation in living spaces or communities.

Marginalized segregation reinforces social hierarchies and perpetuates discrimination and inequality. It can have devastating effects on individuals and communities, leading to limited opportunities for education, employment, health care, and overall well-being. Addressing marginalized segregation requires acknowledging and dismantling the structures and beliefs that perpetuate these divisions, and working towards creating more inclusive and equitable societies.
