In our discussion, we talked about oppression and how different groups of people are “inside the structure,” as said by Freire. I think the people who are oppressed have less opportunity. It is well known that people born into wealthier families will most likely live in that lifestyle. On the other side, those born poor will most likely stay that way their entire lives. In society today, many different groups of people are oppressed. I think there should be more opportunity for those oppressed, to become more successful. I also think people should try and help those who are oppressed to stay on their feet. It is difficult to overcome poverty without help from others. Often times people will donate money to things that are not, in my opinion, as important as taking care of oppressed people. For example, people are donating millions of dollars to build a wall, while there are people who struggle to eat everyday.
