Invisible segregation refers to subtle forms of segregation or exclusion that are not immediately obvious or overt, but are present in social, economic, or cultural settings. This can include things like disparities in access to resources, opportunities, or social networks based on factors such as race, gender, or socioeconomic status. Invisible segregation can also manifest in the form of implicit biases or discriminatory practices that perpetuate inequality and marginalization.
