have multi-layered facets in life that they have to deal with, such as racism or homophobia.

political leadership, moral authority, and social privilege.
Colonialism: the practice by which a powerful country directly controls less powerful
countries and uses their resources to increase its own wealth and power. The powerful
country acquires full or partial political control over another country, occupying it with
settlers, and exploiting it economically.
Orientalism: a way of seeing that imagines, emphasises, exaggerates, and distorts the
depictions of aspects in Middle Eastern, South Asian, and East Asian cultures. It often
