How does social location contribute to the marginalization of certain groups within society?

Social location refers to the various social categories that define who we are, such as race, class, gender, and age. These categories can influence how people are treated in society, often leading to marginalization, which means being pushed to the edges and having less access to resources and opportunities. For example, a person from a low-income background may struggle to find quality education or job opportunities compared to someone from a wealthier background. This unequal treatment can create barriers that prevent certain groups from fully participating in society, leading to a cycle of disadvantage. Understanding social location helps us see why some groups may face more challenges and encourages us to work towards a more inclusive society.
