Is there a phenomenon where entire cultures have the same inability to stand up for themselves? I was just wondering if anyone would know if there is a phenomenon (for lack of a better term) where entire cultures can have a sense of insecurity in speaking up for themselves when others (can be another entire culture, or group of cultures) constantly vilify them? If one was take the topic of racism as an example, is there a phenomenon where one culture becomes unable to speak up for themselves, or make a collective stand against it out of fear, violence, repercussions? Does historical trauma to an entire group of people cause them to feel they can only avoid situations to minimize the fears they have? When entire groups feel historical trauma, or marginalization simply because of who they are ethnically, religiously, etc that causes them to not stand up to new forms of abuses (potential or real) targeting them?…
