In this episode, I will discuss Feeling

Othered, detailing the Social Construct of Othering and
detail what othering is, how it occurs, how it can be minimized, and the impact it has on society.

Othering is one of the processes of marginalization that occurs

within society. It occurs when a person highly values his own group while
denigrating and excluding anyone from a group different from his. The process of othering lies at the heart of many societal ills,
including racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia.
