    Social inequality is a fundamental issue in societies around the world, shaping access to resources, opportunities, and quality of life. It refers to the uneven distribution of wealth, power, and privileges among individuals and groups, often determined by factors such as class, race, gender, and education. While some level of inequality has existed in every human society, modern economic and social structures have amplified disparities, making it a crucial area of study for sociologists, policymakers, and activists. 
Throughout history, social inequality has taken various forms, from rigid caste systems to economic hierarchies based on capitalism. Industrialization and globalization have contributed to both the expansion of wealth and the widening of income gaps, leaving marginalized communities struggling for economic security and social recognition. The effects of inequality are not just economic; they extend into healthcare, education, political representation, and overall well-being. 
One of the most significant consequences of inequality is the limitation it places on social mobility. In an ideal society, individuals would have the opportunity to improve their social and economic standing based on merit and effort. However, entrenched social hierarchies often make it difficult for those born into poverty or discrimination to break free from their circumstances. Access to education, employment opportunities, and healthcare remains largely determined by socioeconomic status, further reinforcing generational cycles of disadvantage.

    DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
This is a summary, & it does not accompany the official 
"It Didn't Start with You" by Mark Wolynn explores the idea that mental and physical health issues like depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and phobias may not solely stem from our own life experiences or brain chemistry but can be inherited from our ancestors. Drawing on scientific research, including the work of experts like Rachel Yehuda and Bessel van der Kolk, the book shows how trauma can be passed down through generations, even when the original trauma source is long gone or forgotten. Mark Wolynn, a pioneer in the field of inherited family trauma, offers the Core Language Approach, a practical method for uncovering and addressing these hidden emotional legacies. The book includes diagnostic self-inventories, techniques for creating family trees, and tools like visualization and active imagination to facilitate healing and reconnection. "It Didn't Start With You" provides a transformative approach to resolving deep-seated issues that traditional therapy or medications may not fully address.
