Introduction

By: Carson Wendler

Racism, Sexism, and Classism are among some of the largest social problems human beings face in the world today. All are caused by various splits in classes and gender roles that are dependent on the abuse of a system in order to put the suppressed group in a state of submission to the older group. Depending on the individual culture, different anomalies within these systems can be identified as being caused for different reasons (i.e. Classism creating differences because, "economic ownership is a basic determinant of class relations") 1. The conflicts that result of these differences in Race, Sex and Class can be very costly and damaging to the stability of the system in which these problems are centered around.
