As wrapped all the ideas and studies that Stuart Hall and Edward Said contend regarding the identity and culture, I connect them to Du Bois’s studies in regards to individual identity. To Du Bois, individual identity [as Garner and Hancock (2014) report] may be “asked by accounts that leave out some groups’ contributions” (p. 194). The authors emphasize that Du Bois also “outlines theory of the social construction of identity linked to the analysis of power and structural inequality” (2013:194). Indeed, we are unique people as we are born into cultures with the qualities that make each of us different from all other people. As learned and observed, I assume that if we just know someone’s cultural identity without learning complete information

According to Marx, capitalists exploit workers for their labor without sharing any labors equally. Hence, the exploitation occurs; it is what allows the owning classes to dominate and impose their ideology politically on the workers around the world (Garner and Hancock 2014). Furthermore, with Friedrich Engels, Marx claims that “A capitalist society is a society of class inequality, like most societies that preceded it in history” (2014:39). Indeed, the class of capitalists, which is also known as bourgeoisie, particularly enrages Marx. It is said that members of the bourgeoisie “own the means of production” and “exploit the class of laborers” which is called the proletariat; of course, they do not own the means of production as reported in Garner and Hancock’s study (P. 41). Marx, in addition, believes that the bourgeoisie and the proletariat inescapably were “accompanied by a corresponding political advance of that class” (p. 44). From my perspective, Marx gradually predicts that the laborers are destined to overthrow the capitalists. Inequality then affects people and knowledge. That is why Kenneth Allan (2012) concludes in his book, Explorations in Classical Sociological Theory: Seeing the Social World, regarding Karl Marx’s class conflict that: “Private property and slave labor came into existence, as well as significant class inequality” (p. 79). As the class struggle later on nears the
