Include the following in your write-up and cite your sources
- consider forms of social order involve forms of domination and power
- belief systems presented and treated as “facts” can act as barriers to conscious action and freedom
- a critical lens helps to see through taken-for-granted relations and beliefs to examine underlying structures and social relationships
- certain groups in any society are privileged over others; oppression is most forcefully reproduced when people who are subordinated accept their social status as natural, necessary, or inevitable
