Making people invisible is not simply dehumanizing, it is a way to control everyone – not just those being silenced. It takes away the information about what is happening; it makes memory holes; important information is withheld from all. I have heard folks complain in the U.S. that there is no movement against one thing or another. The reality is that many things have happened at the local level across the country, but it is excluded from the national news. So, folks who are demonstrating, starting alternatives, or organizing, think they are among the few, and those on the sidelines think there is just no larger action because it is not reported.
