== Psychological == {{main|Social invisibility}} A person can be described as invisible if others refuse to see them or routinely overlook them. The term was used in this manner in the title of the book ''[[Invisible Man]]'', by [[Ralph Ellison]], in reference to the protagonist, likely modeled after the author, being overlooked on account of his status as an [[African American]]. This is supported by the quote taken from the Prologue, "I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me."
