Signs of Minority Oppression 1. Formally sanctioned laws which protect slave owners and regulate the sale of slaves; e.g., saying formally that blacks may be captured, sold and bought as slaves. 2. Formally sanctioned laws which relegate certain classes of people to second class citizenship where the classification has to do with race, ethnic origin, religion, language, etc. 3. Informal traditions which sanction slavery or second class citizenship status---in the absence of formal laws prohibiting slavery and second class citizenship--- all in the presence of informal agreements that such formal laws prohibiting slavery and second class citizenship should not be passed. 4. Formally sanctioned laws which provide for the invasion of private homes and settings to regulate harmless private behaviors which would never come to the attention of the community at large apart from such invasions of private homes and settings. (Here harmless private behaviors are those behaviors in which none of those involved feel oppressed, overwhelmed, harmed, coerced, violated or are in any way inclined to object to.) 5. Some informal traditions tacitly approve of the subtle invasion of private homes and settings to try to regulate and/or control harmless private behaviors --- behaviors which would never come to the attention of the community at large --- apart from invasions of private homes and settings in the absence of formal laws prohibiting such invasions. Such informal traditions often function in the presence of informal agreements that formal laws prohibiting such invasions of private homes and settings should not be passed. 6. Formal and/or informal traditions under which minority groups are excluded from deliberations which lead to the development of formal and/or informal traditions and/or laws which put them at a disadvantage. Such exclusion may entail nothing more than threats and intimidations which chill open and honest descriptions of experiences, feelings, views, beliefs, ideals, values, ideas, hopes, aspirations and fears.
