Discrimination can come in all shapes and sizes. It can happen in everyday life and also in the work place. A lot of discrimination comes from ignorance, uneducated, stereotypes, and fear. These things do not excuse the behavior but are clearly things that can be changed. Some of these behaviors come from learned traits as a child and embedded in us in our upbringing. The community and media play a big part as well. The peers we surround ourselves with also influence us more then we may think. When something is different then what we are used to, the unknown scares us and placing prejudice in the place of the fear makes it easier to cope with. At which point this leads to discrimination to different degrees.…
Discrimination is different from prejudice and stereotyping by how being prejudice and stereotyping are negative feelings or thoughts towards a different race. When you discriminate you are acting on those negative feelings or thoughts. If you do not like someone because of the racial or ethnic minority group then you are being prejudice but if you deny them opportunities because of those reasons then you are discriminating.

Racism, what is it? Racism is discrimination against someone because they seem different. I consider it absolutely inadmissible to be racist to somebody. Why do I think that would be objectionable? I will answer that in a concise manner, what would Jesus do? In John 4:4-42, Jesus talked with a Samaritan woman and requested her to give him a drink. Jesus, a Jew, in society's view, should not have even come close to her. Why, because Jews thought Samaritans lived in a constant feeling of hate toward each other.
