Abstract
youth develop an understanding of themselves based mainly on their heritage and the cultural circumstances in which they are raised. For immigrant and street youth, this sense of self-understanding is greatly impacted by how others treat them and how society views the community of which they are a part. The situation for both of these groups is quite similar. They are often made to feel as though they are outsiders, unable to conform and unlikely to find a place relative to their age group with non-immigrants, or non-homeless (Lee and Hebert, 2006: 497.) oppression manifests itself, as shown repeatedly throughout Robert Mullaly’s book Challenging oppression: A Critical Social Work Approach, in our everyday interactions with one another. oppression is not limited to human-to-human contact either, Mullaly clearly showcases that oppressive behavior can manifest itself in all functional, structural and cultural daily interactions.
