Discussion
Which of the following actions would not be helpful in addressing the marginalisation of certain community ?
Answer: A
The action that would not help is mainstreamization.
Marginalised communities, such as Adivasis, are often pushed to the margins precisely because they are expected to give up their own language, customs and ways of life and fit into a dominant 'mainstream'. Forcing them to assimilate deepens their marginalisation by devaluing their identity.
The other three help. Protecting cultural diversity respects the community's identity. Social movements, such as Dalit and Adivasi movements, let marginalised groups assert their rights. Government policies, such as reservations and laws against discrimination and atrocities, give them protection and opportunity.
