Marginalised and oppressed

We live in a world which depends for its smooth functioning on marginalising all those for whom its living, working and leisure space was not designed. But we are not just marginalised, we are oppressed and the oppression and abuse have one central identical effect - to make the victims blame themselves and feel that they are bad.
