Chapter 9: Discrimination

Discrimination is an unfair action towards someone. This can be based on sex, age, gender, weight, skin color, among many more. There is individual discrimination which is just from one person to another. There is also institutional discrimination corresponding with discrimination in society. When discrimination becomes about race, it is known as racism. Discrimination also ties into prejudice easily. Prejudice is a judging of someone in a negative way.
