Power means the ability to control events and the behaviors of other people.Marginalize means to put off to the side, or make it less important.Exploit means to take unfair advantage of someone for your own benefit.People with power are able to marginalize and exploit people with different identities by paying people less money on their job, having innocent people as slaves, and killing people as a sacrifice.They are able to do all of this because they have the power of all those people that don’t have power and don’t have a voice to say what’s right for them.
First of all, people with power are able to marginalize/exploit people with different identities by paying them less but making them work hard, they are able to do this because they have the power and authority.There’s a document that I read that said that on the earlies 1503 the Spanish people and Cortez exploited the Native Americans with a system called the Encomienda.This document is a quote from a book that Jerome R Reich wrote in a book on 1994.A quote from the document said that “The next task was to exploit their labor, For this purpose the Encomienda system was instituted in the West Indies”.This shows how people with power are able to marginalize and exploit people with different identities because the masters of the slaves are taking advantage of the slaves for their own benefits, and they are making the slaves work but they are not paying them enough to live.
In addition to, people with power are able to marginalize/exploit people with different identities by having people as slaves and treating them unfairly, they are able to do this because the masters of the slaves have the authority to do this.There’s a document that I read that said there’s a set of rules.These rules were made to control slaves and punish them.This document is a set of rules called The Code Noir made by the King of France in March 1685.A quote from the document said that “the masters will have the right, when they’ll estimate it’s necessary to chain up the slaves and make beat them by sticks and ropes”.This shows how people with power are able to marginalize and exploit people with different identities because the masters are making slaves off to the side by not letting the slaves have their freedom.The masters are also taking advantage of the slaves for their own benefit and beating them up whenever they feel like the slaves need it.
To continue, people with power are able to marginalize and exploit people with different identities by killing people and sacrificing them.They could do this because they have the power and authority.There’s a document that I read that said the Aztecs will choose an enemy warrior and they will treat him appropriately and give him good things, but after a period of time they will treat him badly and then kill him.This document is a note written by and unknown Aztec scribe.The document was written around the 1529’s.A quote from the document said “Many of us become attached to this living god, and a terrible sadness comes over some of the women when at the end of the year, he is taken to Chalco and dismembered in public view”.This demonstrates how people with power are able to exploit and marginalize people because the Aztecs are taking unfair advantage of people by killing enemy warriors and saying they do this because it’s part of their religion and tradition.
