Jess Butcher on victimology

Victims believe they are impotent and that they have no sense of control over the way that events unfold.  Assuming that something has happened to you due to prejudice, whether right or wrong, is rarely the most productive response.  It prevents introspection, self analysis, and more importantly, particularly if it was due to prejudice, evaluation of new methods and techniques for circumventing your status quo.
