As difficult a reality as this may be, it can be the inspiration in which the ugly face of invisibility is shown. For example, you have two brothers, one named Shawn (the younger brother) and the other ShaQuon (the older brother). Shawn played football and ran track and was considered one of the "cool kids" at school. ShaQuon was an average student and didn't play any sports. Throughout ShaQuon's high school career, many people considered him Shawn's brother and learned his name instead. The hierarchical status of Shawn's life has swallowed up the existence of his older brother's life. Even though Shawn eclipsed his older brother's existence, he still esteemed him: "But more than that, he was the example of everything I hoped to be" ("Invisible Man" - Ellison, Ralph
