Discrimination in Our Society
Journal #2 (article)
Unfortunately, today in our society there is still way too much racism and discrimination against black people all over the world, and this can really affect someone’s career just based on of the colour of their skin. My article is about a group of African American gardeners who were being treated as slaves while working for a company called Khaira Enterprises in British Columbia. All the white people working for the company had easy and manageable jobs, and had good working conditions to work with, while black people were treated the complete opposite way. The black people were treated like slaves, had racial slurs against them constantly got undercooked and expired food to eat, dirty water to drink, slept in portable storage containers and worst of all, they got paid very seldom. The company was reported the company to British Columbia’s ministry of forests who eventually shut down the company, making these poor people homeless with no job.
The article is relevant to the class, as it has to do with the obstacles with decision-making. The African gardeners decided to immigrate to Canada in order to make a good living and work as gardeners. The only problem was that the gardeners had a huge obstacle they had to face, racial discrimination. The gardeners were being treated unfairly and differently because of the discrimination, which was their biggest obstacle with the decision they made.
This article clearly relates to a sales representative as a sales representatives usually face a lot of discrimination which is what this article is about, discriminating the African gardeners. For example sometimes in clothing stores the managers decide to put some people on the sales floor, while some people are forced to go work in the back room where they cannot be seen. They choose the people to work on the floor based on many characteristics such as their background, age, nationality or skin colour, and this shows a lot of discrimination
