Black Life Matters: Social Location

162 Words1 Pages
Social location is a self-identify term, which refers to an individual’s status in the society. People are socially constructed into a number of relationships within our family, school, church, and working place. Social location includes race, class, gender, sexuality, religion, age, education, and political stance. I found that Black Life Matters relates to my social location. Even though I 'm a young Asian guy, my political stance is the same as those black people that is being a minority in this white-norm society. So when I saw the police are constantly overpowered, and their attitude toward black people upsets me very much. The fact that black men have to deal with racial profiling from the police for just being black and male is so ridiculous.
