a. A friend begins to tease a classmate because he is poor.
b. You are watching TV with your family and one of them makes a prejudicial comment about a particular religious community.
c. Children in your class refuse to share their food with a particular person because they think she is dirty.
d. Someone tells you a joke that makes fun of a community because of their accent. e. Some boys make remarks about girls not being able to play games as well as them.

Describe an instance where you witnessed or experienced discrimination. How did it affect the person involved, and what steps were taken to address the situation?
In a history class, a student with dyslexia was mocked by classmates for reading slowly during a group activity. This public humiliation caused the student to feel anxious and excluded, drastically affecting their participation and self-esteem. Observing this, the teacher immediately intervened, emphasizing the importance of respect and empathy. The class discussed diversity and learning differences, and the teacher arranged for peer support and tutoring sessions. Additionally, educational accommodations were made, such as providing audio textbooks and allowing extra time for reading tasks. These measures not only helped improve the affected student's confidence but also fostered a more inclusive classroom environment where diversity was valued and supported.
Discuss the impact of inclusive cultures in schools and workplaces in reducing instances of discrimination. Can you provide an example of an inclusive practice?

Sign up nowA Marxist sociologist has argued that racism stems from the class struggle that is unique to the capitalist system - that racial prejudice is generated by capitalists as a means of controlling workers. His thesis works relatively well when applied to discrimination against Blacks in the United States, but his definition of racial prejudice as "racially-based negative prejudgments against a group generally accepted as a race in any given region of ethnic competition" can be interpreted as also including hostility toward such ethnic groups as the Chinese in California and the Jews in medieval Europe. However, since prejudice against these latter peoples was not inspired by capitalists, he has to reason that such antagonisms were not really based on race. He disposes thus (albeit unconvincingly) of both the intolerance faced by Jews before the rise of capitalism and the early twentieth-century discrimination against Oriental people in California, which, inconveniently, was instigated by workers.
The passage supplies information that would answer which of the following questions?
(a) What accounts for the prejudice against the Jews in medieval Europe?
(b) What conditions caused the discrimination against Oriental people in California in the early twentieth century?
(c) What explanation did the Marxist sociologist give for the existence of racial prejudice?
(d) What evidence did the Marxist sociologist provide to support his thesis?
