Controversial Issues

Some of the topics I am going to touch on are controversial issues. Readers, I apologise in advance if I have directly or indirectly offended you or anyone who you know.

Topics of the day :

1.RACISM
- discrimination against other races
- most obvious between African American and others
- happens everywhere in the world

The following video shows this example of discrimination among Americans.


2. SEXISM
- discrimination against other genders
- Male vs Female
- again happens globally
- examples are such as F1 sports. No ladies are allowed to race among the men.

3. AGEISM
- discrimination against generally the elderly.
- happens mostly in companies
i.e. My mum's former company has this ruling that states that " All employees that are 55 and above are expected to retire unless they are under contractual agreement."


These are just some of the more common discrimination. We should practice being transparent and not speak or act in any way that discriminates others. It hurts when this happens to you. Practice being emphatic. This will strengthen all kinds of relationships.
