social awareness day 5

#5:  Discrimination


–noun
1.
an act or instance of discriminating.
2. treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit
 
 
discrimination has many meanings. but to me, it only has one. to judge someone unfairly, or to exclude someone also unfairly. there are many different types of descrimination. sexism, which is when you judge someone by their gender, racism, which is when you judge someone by the color of their skin. and i know that there are many more, your religion, etc etc. well discrimination can be bad. you could face problems just because someone judges you wrongly. the only thing that  counts is you youself as a whole. not you in little parts.
