Content: Yet,
 
marginalization
 
is
 
by
 
no
 
means
 
the
 
fate
 
only
 
of
 
racially
 
marked
 
people. In
 
the
 
United
 
States
 
a
 
shamefully
 
large
 
proportion
 
of
 
the
 
population
 
is
 
marginal: elderly
 
people
 
who
 
are
 
fired
 
from
 
their
 
jobs; young
 
Blacks
 
or
 
Latinos
 
who
 
cannot
 
find
 
their
 
first
 
or
 
second
 
jobs; many
 
single
 
mothers
 
and
 
their
 
children; other
 
people
 
involuntarily
 
unemployed; many
 
mentally
 
and
 
physically
 
disabled
 
people; and
 
American
 
Native
 
Indians,
 
especially
 
those
 
on
 
reservations. Marginalization
 
expels
 
a
 
whole
 
category
 
of
 
people
 
from
 
useful
 
participation
 
in
 
social
 
life. As
 
a
 
result,
 
these
 
groups
 
are
 
subjected
 
to
 
severe
 
material
 
deprivation
 
(they
 
don’t
 
have
 
access
 
to
 
basic
 
resources)
 
and
 
even
 
extermination
 
(such
 
as
 
genocide).
