People may be discriminated against because of their age, disability, ethnicity, origin, race, sex or gender, region, language, culture and on many other grounds. Discrimination, which is often the result of prejudices people hold, makes people powerless, impedes them from becoming active citizens, restricts them from developing their skills and, in many situations, from accessing work, health services, education or accommodation.
Please write down an example of discrimination you know, and try to tell how to eliminate it.
In my opinion, women are still discriminated against in employment in China. In today's job market, women are excluded from certain positions, or gender discrimination is implicitly manifested through occupational gender segregation. One-sided view that women can not do certain jobs, or marriage and family conditions as factors affecting women's work outcomes. In order to pursue the maximization of interests, female job seekers are rejected, which leads to the further narrowing of female employment living space.
As far as women are concerned, what we can do is to improve our professional skills and qualities and improve our competitiveness. What's more, The government should step up efforts to eliminate gender discrimination in employment. The government should fully implement laws, regulations and policies to eliminate gender discrimination in employment and create a gender-equal market environment.
Due to the saturation of the labor market in the past two years, many job announcements have put the age card under 50 years old, and some even under 40 years old, which is a kind of age discrimination.
Ageism often stems from people's beliefs and prejudices, and self-knowledge and self-confidence can help us better face these prejudices. Age is not the whole of a person, we should pay more attention to the individual's ability and value, rather than age.
Even today, gender discrimination still exists, including discrimination against women in the workplace. Women have seemingly unlimited job opportunities, yet they are woefully underrepresented in leadership roles. These women are so good, but there are always people with colored glasses to look at them. This example comes from the offer of a variety show I watched. This excellent female lawyer named Liu Siyuan, not only her academic qualifications are quite excellent, but also her work ability is very strong. Made partner at a young age. However, the requirements for women in the legal world are very strict. Even if her academic qualifications and working ability are better than those of her male colleagues at the same level, she will still be looked down upon by the leaders and will always be one level lower than them. She has to work a thousand times harder to get the same respect as men. No one can appreciate how she managed to make her way to partner in the firm among her male colleagues. Only she could understand the bitterness.
In order to break the deadlock, first of all, I think women should have self-confidence and self-esteem, and be good at communicating effectively and expressing their views. Women should also learn to use the weapons of law to protect themselves and continuously improve their professional abilities. I think it is necessary to strengthen the publicity and formulate more policies to help women play their own strength in the workplace. Women should also be brave enough to speak up for themselves, and when they encounter discrimination and prejudice, bravely express their ideas and let the other party know that such behavior is not acceptable. Remember that if you are strong enough, you can earn respect.
In my opinion, there has always been discrimination against women in the workplace. In the eyes of most people, women's strength is not as strong as men's. In the legal world, women have to work harder than men to get the same position, and clients are more likely to favor a mature male lawyer than a beautiful female lawyer, although their abilities are the same. When it comes to women's employment, companies also tend to hire men, and they put all kinds of restrictions on women to refuse them.
In view of these, I think we should first improve our professional ability, and any discrimination in absolute ability will not help. When we are good, good companies will also deliver offers to us. In addition, the relevant government departments should take measures to combat such discrimination and protect women's rights in the workplace.
In my country, women have been discriminated against a lot in the workplace. The main reason for the unequal employment opportunities for women is that employers will take into account that women will be pregnant, giving birth, and breastfeeding. It is also reflected in the fact that men and women are not paid for equal work, even if they do the same amount of work, they are paid differently for their work.
When women encounter gender discrimination in the workplace, they should learn to actively fight for their rights, and they can report to their superiors or relevant departments. Secondly, women should improve their skills and knowledge, which can make women more competitive in the workplace, so that they can be treated fairly in terms of promotion and compensation.
In life, some employers discriminate against job applicants with a certain amount of work experience, thinking that people applying for jobs are too old or unable to adapt to new technology. Similarly, some people may discriminate against older people, viewing them as conservative and less skilled. It is suggested to give subsidies to middle-aged and elderly workers to create opportunities for them to improve their abilities and update their knowledge.
In life, people with disabilities are protected vulnerable groups, but they also suffer from a lot of discrimination. I once saw a news that the art exhibition refused to allow girls to attend the exhibition because the girl's wheelchair would hinder others' walking. In my opinion, people with disabilities have their own lives, like ordinary people, and can socialize and work. Disability should not be the reason for them to be discriminated against. The exhibition is worried about causing congestion, and disabled access can be set up for them to facilitate walking and avoid crowding.
Because of the difference in economic development between regions, people often form a kind of regional discrimination. For example, city people discriminate against country people, and people in economically developed areas discriminate against people in poor areas. When people look at others with certain stereotypes, it is difficult for people to get along equally and harmoniously with each other. Through education, we can increase people's awareness of different regional cultures, encourage people from different regions to communicate with each other, and enhance understanding and identity. Each of us should establish the right values and truly understand the meaning of "all men are created equal".
In the late sixties,a young woman from a background that was extremly prejudiced against people from other races came to college convinced that her race was superior.She was distressed because she had been put into a dorm that had people from a variety of ethnic backgrounds.Over the next four years,this students,whi consideredherself intelligent,found herself in calsses and socoal events in which people of other races performed as well as more competently than she did.She had grown to realized that people of other races were not only equal to her but also were peole who could be her friends and from whom she could learn.
As far as I am concerned,we should raise the level of education in society.Every individual should have critical thinking,knowing what is right and what is wrong.Every race is equal.Every one is equal.
In modern times, women are still not on an equal footing with men, and implicit discrimination against women still exists. For example, some units do not use female employees when recruiting, or there are many "pink taxes" in life. We should start from the small things in our daily lives, respect women, and resist things that harm women's rights and interests. At the same time, we should strengthen the publicity of gender equality education and popularize the concept of gender equality from an early age.
In daily life, there are many geographical discrimination phenomena. For example, the people of southern Jiangsu discriminate against the people of northern Jiangsu, and the positions of looking for people are more oriented to the cities with more developed economy.
First of all, we should attach importance to the education of students and let them understand the geographical equality. You can't judge people in a region. Secondly, when faced with geographical discrimination, we should have the courage to express our dissatisfaction. Finally, we should have the courage,will to act.
Usually, people tend to approve and choose to believe someone who can get high marks in examination or receive higher education. In other words, the one with low education would be discriminated more or less. This is unequal to the rest. Because the grades and education cannot stand for everything, which cannot mean the one with high education owns better virtue. Once I was in junior high school, one of my teachers misunderstood and criticized the inferior student, but she didn't even figure out the fact. The rest of us all knew that it was the fault of the other student, the superior student wasn't willing to finish her task in the teamwork. From my point of view, we shouldn't judge people solely by their grades, education. We should realize the point. Try to regard others in a comprehensive way, and it benefits to elminate the bias.
There are also signs on the elevators of some communities banning delivery workers. I once went to a relative’s house,and their community used an elevator card to go upstairs, and a delivery person asked me to help him swipe the lift card so he could go upstairs and deliver food. Sometimes, they are even required to climb a dozen flights of stairs to deliver food because some places don‘t allow delivery person on lifts . This is status discrimination. Those with high social status feel superior to others. People with low social status and even ordinary people will be scorned. People should learn to respect each other. Equality of all people is not talk about it,but to show it in action.
Gender discrimination in Africa is rampant. When girls reach a certain age, they are forced to marry local men, even men they don't know. These are not options for them, and polygamy is practiced in Africa, which oppresses women.
The example I want to give is appearance discrimination. Nowadays, many people in society recruit or find a partner based on the appearance level as the main criterion. In our normal study and life, there is no shortage of students on campus because the appearance level is not high enough or relatively fat, many people will make some vulgar jokes or nicknames, and even directly engage in campus bullying. Another example is stars. Nowadays, many stars are loved by fans because they are more beautiful. But some stars who are not outstanding but strong are ignored by people. It is true that people are visual animals, but instead of blindly focusing on the level of appearance, we should still rationally observe the real strength of this person. Don't judge a book by its cover. In order to deal with this kind of discrimination, I think we should always remind ourselves not to judge people completely by their appearance. Secondly, some national institutions, such as CCTV, should strengthen the publicity of the value of not blindly pursuing appearance.
I think appearance discrimination is also very common in life, people usually judge a person's character according to his appearance. If we meet a stranger in our lives with a bad appearance, it is easy to become wary of them. On the other hand, if you meet an attractive person, you will lower your vigilance.
In my opinion, appearance is not the only criterion to judge a person, more important is inner cultivation. As the old saying goes:One who is filled with knowledge always behaves with elegance.
Identity discrimination refers to the unfair treatment and discrimination against people of a certain type of identity. For example, food delivery people are now banned from elevators in many residential areas, and there are previous news reports that Cathay Pacific flight attendants did not provide blankets to passengers who did not speak English and ridiculed them. These are all manifestations of identity discrimination, believing that you are higher than others, that you are superior. Therefore, we need to have inner tolerance, understanding and respect, and build an equal, free and pluralistic social environment.
Academic qualifications discrimination. We know that many enterprises will impose academic qualifications when recruiting workers. In my opinion, if the purpose of an enterprise is to screen people by their academic qualifications for the sake of efficiency and production, and if the screening is not targeted at the people themselves, then it is not considered discrimination. However, if it is only for the purpose of screening academic qualifications, for example, security guards require a master's degree or even a doctorate degree, this is academic qualification discrimination. These companies think that people with low academic qualifications lack the necessary skills and knowledge to perform certain positions or jobs. They use academic qualifications as the only yardstick to measure a person's ability and quality, thus ignoring other aspects of ability and experience. Such prejudice and discrimination will not only hinder the development and employment opportunities of people with low educational attainment, but also aggravate the over-emphasis on academic qualifications and the phenomenon of academic qualification discrimination in society.
The phenomenon of academic qualification discrimination is a complex social problem that requires our concerted efforts to solve. The State should strengthen the supervision and management of higher education and improve the quality of education and academic standards. Enterprises and organizations should also change their traditional management style, focusing on the overall quality and ability of their employees and avoiding taking academic qualifications as the only criterion for measuring a person's ability and quality. We ourselves should correctly look at the relationship between education and ability, and continuously improve our ability and quality through practice and study.
Since ancient times, women's identity and status have been widely discussed by people.
In ancient times, women's marriage could not be decided by themselves, and they were required to care for their husband and children at home after marriage, and there was an ideological prejudice that "a woman without talent is a virtue".
However, in modern society, the status of women is more reflected in the workplace, many women will be rejected by the company because of marriage and children, so that they feel that the value of women's ability is not as good as that of men, which is obvious gender discrimination.However, now more and more enterprises in the interview began to prohibit asking women about the relationship between family and work, which reflects the protection of women's rights and interests.
In China, women will still receive some discrimination. For example, in the workplace, women will not get the same opportunity as men because of marriage, pregnancy, care for children and other problems.In families, women are also in a weak position. Women are always bound by doing housework, raising their children, and supporting their parents.We want to change women's thinking, and the society should also eliminate the prejudice against women and give women more opportunities.
Many companies discriminate on the basis of sex when hiring employees. Men tend to be considered more often, for example, for executive appointments. And women tend to be paid less than men, even in the same jobs. Women's initiative to show action and initiative is an effective way to reflect their own advantages and cope with gender discrimination.
1、Gender discrimination: believing that certain jobs are more suitable for men or women, or believing that certain personality traits are more suitable for men or women.
2、Racial discrimination: The belief that certain ethnic groups are superior or inferior to others.
3、Religious discrimination: The belief that certain religious beliefs are superior or inferior to others.
Here are some ways to eliminate discrimination:
Education: Cultivate the concept of equality and respect through education, making people understand that everyone has their own value and dignity and should not be subject to any form of discrimination.
Legislation: Enact relevant laws and regulations that clearly stipulate that discriminatory behavior is illegal and impose penalties on violations.
Cultural exchange: Increase understanding and respect among different groups through cultural exchange, thereby reducing the occurrence of discrimination.
Women are still subjected to certain discrimination in modern society, at birth, many families will abandon their babies because they are girls, when receiving education, many parents will think that it is useless for girls to go to school and let them stay at home and help instead of going to school, when they enter the workplace, women will also face more problems than men, when women are in their twenties, they will be asked, Do you have a boyfriend? Do you plan on getting married? When women turn 30, they're asked are you going to have children? But men are not asked these questions, they never seem to worry about the impact of marriage and children, because it is women's business, men are always chosen first, because women will be delayed by the family, in fact, this is discrimination against women, they think that women should stay at home to deal with trifles, women have no ability to thrive in the workplace.
In real life, the occurrence of discrimination is still very right, although it is not very obvious, but everyone will feel uncomfortable, for example, some companies in China will issue a notice, the notice writes that the recruitment of men is limited, which is actually a major manifestation of gender discrimination in the workplace between men and women, how to eliminate this gender discrimination, I think the first is a change in thinking, leaders should be recruited according to the professional strength of the candidates, not just according to gender, nowadays, many women's professional work ability is not worse than men or even stronger, more delicate, First of all, it is necessary to change the thinking of leaders and change the ingrained old thinking that women are inferior to men, and then effective changes can be made
Like the Green Book, Hidden Figures describes the discrimination and injustice experienced by black Americans. Hidden Characters conveys more about fighting for more rights and opportunities for themselves and the race. Catherine spends 40 minutes a day commuting to and from the bathroom for people of color, and on a rainy day she finally broke out,there is no bathroom for people of color, there is no bathroom for people of color, I go to the bathroom 800 meters away every day, and I am tired like a dog day and night, and even the coffee pot I use is disgusted because I am black! Mary followed her supervisor's advice to apply for an engineer for herself, while fighting for court for not being able to attend a white school. Mary said to the judge,it's unheard of for blacks to go to white schools, but it's unheard of for humans to fly into space before that. I, wanting to be NASA's first black female engineer, couldn't change my skin, so I decided to be the first.
As we all know that there are many discrimination in the world. What can we do is that like the protagonists in Hidden Figures telling us all the time: we have to believe, to fight, to create, and to face any dilemma.Only in this way we can get out of a new future and find our own world.
Gender discrimination in the workplace: many companies have gender discrimination in promotion, salary, bonus and other mechanisms, and women's promotion opportunities and salary treatment are often less than men. At the same time, women are vulnerable to sexual harassment and gender discrimination in some professions, such as technology and finance.We can avoid gender discrimination by establishing an equal workplace culture, improving women's self-awareness and self-confidence, and strengthening legal protection against gender discrimination. Only men and women can get along equally in the workplace, in order to better play their respective advantages and promote the development and progress of the workplace.
To Kill A Mockingbird is about a family, which includes the dad Atticus, the older brother Jem and the younger sister Joan. The dad Atticus, is a lawyer, who is dispatched defend a black person called Tomas Robinson. Tomas Robinson is accused of raping a white girl. At that time, the black don't have the equal rights with the white, so Tomas is sure to be sentenced to death. Atticus still tries his best to defend him, even though he knows he will lose the trial. Tomas was shot eventually in the prison, but the accuser Bob also loses everything, so he wants to hurt Jem and Joan to revenge Atticus. At this point of time, Arthor comes to save the kids life and kills Bob. The dad Atticus says, you never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in him.
Women often face gender discrimination when seeking employment. Due to societal stereotypes, people often view women as weak and confine them to specific roles, even though their achievements and contributions in many fields are on par with those of men. Women are unable to receive equal treatment with men, such as income, job positions, promotion opportunities, etc. However, nowadays, there has been some improvement in the situation of discrimination against women. The awakening of female consciousness makes women more confident and proactive in their work, they dare to face discrimination and say “no”, and “girls help girls”is also more frequent.
In real life, appearance discrimination is very common, whether it is for women or men. People tend to judge a person's good or bad based on his or her appearance. For example, in the job market, some companies usually choose good-looking people to give them jobs. And those who are ordinary in appearance are usually ignored by them, as if in their eyes appearance can determine ability.
As far as the evaluation of personal appearance is concerned, we should firmly adhere to the concept of the heart, the evaluation of a person's good and bad can not only look at the appearance, but also look at the person's behavior and moral cultivation. As far as some enterprises are concerned, some enterprises should also establish the correct concept of recruitment, and give jobs according to a person's ability, so that they will not miss the unattractive talent.
Women still face prejudice and discrimination in the workplace. Unmarried women are feared to be unstable in the workplace and will later change jobs because of marriage. Married women are worried that children will disrupt their work. And men are more competitive than women for promotions and positions. I don't think gender can be a key factor in judging a person's ability. The power of women cannot be ignored. Women should use their own strength to fight against unequal treatment and fight for their own interests.
