Matrix of Domination

Matrix of Domination- Johnson introduces this idea on p.51 in chapter 6 Capitalism, Class, and the Matrix of Domination in his book Privilege, Power, and Difference as a network of privilege in a larger system of privilege and oppression. He says that one is not either oppressed or privileged, but privileged in some ways and oppressed in other ways, depending on al lthe dimensions to one's identity. This produces an interconnectes system of privilege and oppression because they affect one another depending on the nature of identity and the social system.
