Macroaggressions are large-scale acts of discrimination or oppression that are directed towards people from marginalized groups. There are various ways in which macroaggressions can manifest, and different frameworks have been proposed to categorize and understand them.
One common categorization of macroaggressions is into four types:
Structural macroaggressions: These are systemic, institutional forms of discrimination that are built into the structures and systems of society, such as laws, policies, and practices that disproportionately impact or disadvantage certain groups. Examples include laws that restrict the rights or opportunities of certain groups, or policies that disproportionately affect certain communities.
Cultural macroaggressions: These are forms of discrimination that are embedded in the culture and values of society, such as attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors that reinforce and perpetuate inequality. Examples include cultural practices or traditions that discriminate against certain groups, or societal attitudes that stereotype or stigmatize certain identities.
Physical macroaggressions: These are large-scale acts of violence or harm that are directed towards certain groups because of their identity. Examples include hate crimes, lynchings, and other forms of violent attacks on marginalized groups.
Environmental macroaggressions: These are forms of discrimination that are related to the physical environment, such as the built environment or natural resources, that disproportionately impact or harm certain groups. Examples include environmental racism, which refers to the disproportionate exposure of certain communities to environmental hazards or the unequal distribution of environmental resources.
It's important to note that macroaggressions can occur in various settings and contexts, and they can be directed at individuals or groups based on a variety of identities, including race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and ability, among others.
