Discrimination

Stereotype is existing in every where and each one have his own idea about some one else. I think that many people have a bad idea about the Asia workers for example they said that they are not clean and always has a bad smell. And we study about the 6 isms which is Racism, Sexism, Ageism, Ableism, Classism and Religious Bigotry. First of all racism is discrimination against people based on the social construction of race. second one sexism is prejudice and /or discrimination based on gender for example maybe they will make a woman comes in front of you in a line just because she is a woman. Finally, we learnt from class a lot of thing and we know how to make an video and how to present the document in front of class.
