Evidence

Given the tendency of dominant group members to monopolize leadership roles and behave paternalistically (Munkres, 2008), Weldon (2006) and Einwohner et al. (2019) argue that inclusion, ironically, may also require marginalized groups to have their own separate space to organize, thus enabling them to further develop their own perspectives and expressions of issues, so as to counter the tendency for marginalized views to be overlooked or disregarded. — Michelle I.
