What are the sources of oppression in your life and what would it take to make the oppression go away?

Asked by wundayatta (58722points) March 12th, 2012

Bosses? Parents? Coworkers? Capitalism? These are just words and labels and tell me nothing. How do you experience oppression personally in your life? What are the little stories of oppression in your life. Define oppression however you want. If you find it oppressive, it is oppression.

Once you’ve identified it, tell me what would have to happen, realistically speaking, for the oppression to go away. Like if your parents force you to work or something, how would they have to change or what would have to change in their lives that would allow them to stop forcing you to work? Or, what would you realistically have to do to get out of their house and live successfully on your own? Would you still have to work?
