The Other and the One

@Lianzhen I agree with yours and Butlers points on the worry of being othered. However at this point in time, I think recognizing these groups that are being othered is important for spreading awareness of the issues they face. We live in an educated circle where we are taught about social inequalities and issues pertaining to these groups of people, however there are many parts of the world where people are not being taught these social phenomena. I think staging these special days of recognition and creating a platform for these minority groups is an important first step to recognizing that the problems they face do exist, and that further steps are required in order for the groups to gain more stable ground in society.
