I feel like there are two different groups of people that face societal demands and must hide their true selves, compared to letting themselves be free and expose their true selves to the societal world. One group is the African American culture and the other is Women, even though racism towards the African American culture isn’t as strong as it used to be there is still people who feel the need to hide their true selves in certain scenarios. It is hard to bring an example into play because I personally don’t feel the need to hide my side of being part African American in any scenario. There are two movies describing certain scenarios, one is called “Sorry to bother you” and “Hidden Figures”. “Hidden Figures” is about the first women to work for NASA and how she was frowned upon and it wasn’t “correct” to society. “Sorry to bother you”, is about a very talented black man who worked for a telemarketing company and is forced to use “his white voice”.  

There should be certain period where these kinds of people should be protected by society because of the many years of hardships, “Group-based identity politics is not dead. As I have argued. I still believe in a group-based accommodation model for existing civil rights groups. This is in part because I believe we made a commitment to those groups to protect them from such covering demands.”- Kenji Yoshino.
