How do social differences overlap with other different

Answer 1

OVERLAPPING DIFFERENCES:

Situations of this kind produce social divisions, when one kind of social difference becomes more important than the other and people start feeling that they belong to different communities. 3. Example-a)difference between Black White in the US becomes a social division because they tend to be poor landless, and often face injustice discrimination. b) In our country Dalits tend to be poor landless and often face injustice discrimination. 4. Overlapping differences create possibilities of deep social divisions and tensions.
