THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ISLAND THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ISLAND Print Okay, so a Lost reference is probably a few (try ten) years out of date, but the concept stands. A bunch of plane crash survivors on a supposedly deserted island (except for that smoke monster and a polar bear) discover they aren’t alone. There are Others. And that’s unsettling and weird. Pretty soon, the whole confusing situation devolves into “us” versus “them.” Now, we may not have a polar bear or an underground bunker, but that “others” concept exists in our contemporary world and is supported by the inequity of power. Othering is a Verb Othering is defined as “using a set of dynamics, processes, and structures to engender marginality and persistent inequality across any of the full range of human differences based on group identities,” by Stephen Menedian, director of research at the Haas Institute for a Fair and Inclusive Society, and John A. Powell, professor of law and professor of African American and Ethnic Studies at UC Berkeley. How We Select Our Out-Groups Like two sides of an island, one beach populated by people like “us” and another with people like “them,” othering creates a divide between known and unknown, same and different, in-group and out-group. Some of those differences, sourced from educational psychology consultant Kendra Cherry, include: age gender identity disability race ethnicity nationality religion sexual identity socioeconomic status political affiliation How We “Other” Others Othering isn’t always obvious. In fact, it’s often subtle and ingrained, woven into the very fabric of societies, propping up systems of inequality that force marginalized groups into small, unlined pockets. Some ways we make people feel part of out-groups, also from Cherry, include these: making positive assumptions about people who are like us while assuming negative things about those who seem to be less like us believing negative stereotypes or distrusting certain groups even if we don’t know anyone from that group hesitating to interact with people who appear to be different from us making assumptions about the intelligence, beliefs, values, or experiences of groups who appear to be different from our groups Our brains are hardwired to seek out differences and similarities when we encounter new people. The problem? We categorize those we deem to be like us as more special, worthy, and likable than those who aren’t. In psychology, this is called the “out-group homogeneity bias.” Take Away: The thing about the Others on Lost is that like people in the out-groups of our regular lives, the Others were just people (...we think. Honestly, that show got pretty confusing). The thing to remember is that no matter what our differences are, we all deserve to be embraced for them in our shared, common humanity.
