Рассказ про дискриминацию на английском

During thousands years, every civilization on the planet had elements of discrimination. Obviously, modern society is no exception. Every time when European colonizers occupied somebody’s land, it led to formation of isolated social groups and peoples. Most extreme types of discrimination often developed into such horrible things as a genocide or slavery. In some countries, discrimination wasn’t enacted at the legislative level, while in other countries discrimination was legislated. This phenomenon was called Apartheid. Along with these extreme forms of discrimination, human civilization also invented other, relatively soft forms, which are often reflected in immigration laws, as well as in disenfranchisement. Often we can observe discrimination in hospitals and schools; discrimination is often presented in media and public opinions. Some ethnic groups suffer from discrimination more often, throughout the whole world’s history. Such groups are the Jews, and the Roma (also known as Gypsies).

The meaning of discrimination is often related to another term, which is “disturbing”. In the Oxford Dictionary, such a term is explained as anxiety, and distress, as well as other bad mental states caused by unfairness and irritation. Therefore, such a state is often caused by various types of discrimination, since it is nothing but an unfair treatment of somebody who belongs to a particular race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and so on. Usually the reason for such an unfair treatment is prejudice. Most people who suffer from discrimination feel frustration, and anger. It may often cause anger addressed to people who caused such an unpleasant emotional state. However, there are many consequences of discrimination for both victims and victimizers, so in this essay, we decided to consider common effects of discrimination.

First of all, discrimination is not a new problem. Almost all human societies throughout world’s history suffered from different forms of discrimination. Now this issue is actively discussed, since in every country, there is some type of discrimination, which certain groups of people suffer from. Every kind of discrimination is based on opinion that certain groups of people don’t have equal rights and opportunities with others. These groups may be determined by race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and so on. Sometimes people confuse discrimination with other social problems, such as stereotypes, or prejudice. As long as human society exists, people were struggling with these things, and until now, there are a lot of people and even governments, who support discrimination. First of all, such social tendencies are based on stereotypes – rigid representations of a certain race or ethnic group. Usually people don’t try to understand whether or not this representation is true. In turn, stereotypes form prejudice. Prejudice is our judgment of a person based on stereotypes about his or her race, gender, and so on. Generally, these two things form a strong basis for discrimination. The only particular feature of discrimination is that it also includes unfair treatment. Within discrimination, people support certain actions against victims of prejudices and stereotypes. Generally, attitude forms a certain type of prejudice, and actions form discrimination.

A lot of people note that discrimination grows and expands. Given latest right-wing political tendencies all over the world, discrimination develops. Even in 2017, people often receive hate messages, get ridiculed, or suffer from the direct violence just because they are somewhat different from the majority. Every time we don’t really know somebody, and yet give him or her names, or make certain conclusions based on stereotypes, we support discrimination.

Causes and Effects of Discrimination

There are relatively more familiar types of discrimination, such as discrimination based on gender, sexual orientation, race, disability or religion. These all are forms of direct discrimination. Another form of direct discrimination is sexual harassment. All these types of discrimination are direct actions against certain groups of people, based on prejudices or stereotypes. At the same time, there is also indirect discrimination, which is usually discussed not so wide and actively. Indirect discrimination includes such situations, where neutral positions or actions cause effects of discrimination. Along with these two major types of discrimination, we must mention institutional discrimination, which involves discriminatory practices, laws, and procedures within a certain company, social institution, or even country. Here we are talking about procedures that cause discriminatory consequences. A striking example of institutional discrimination is the South African Apartheid.

Discrimination rarely causes a certain single effect. Usually effects of discrimination multiply and each effect leads to several new consequences. Discrimination is often related to such thing as social distance. It’s always easier for people to judge those who are not related to their social group. The more far some group of people stands from the majority, the easier for the majority is to discriminate them.

Talking about causes of discrimination, we must highlight one thing that often forms discriminatory behavior among adults. Discrimination can be learned. Most people who support discrimination were raised by parents who support the same ideas. Teachers also may form discriminatory behavior of their students. Media often support discriminatory processes, since every time we talk about discrimination without doing anything to stop it, we also give it a certain level of social legitimacy. Since contact between different groups doesn’t help to fight discrimination, modern society often pays attention to social institutions, and education, in particular. Of course, implementing multicultural principles in education, we support diversity, and weaken discrimination. At the same time, immigration policies, special attention to civil rights, as well as quote hiring, form a strong basis against discrimination. Another important thing is relations between individuals, since true love and friendship between people from different groups is the best way to kill discrimination at the very beginning.

There are different political, psychological, social, and economic effects of discrimination. Victims of discrimination lose their self-confidence, they feel like outsiders. Such effects often become stronger due to political and economic discrimination. Inequality, ignorance and prejudices cause a lot of negative effects on many levels. Not only affects discrimination peace within a particular country, but also a world peace as well. This is a reason why many international organizations provide new instruments and laws, in order to stop discrimination worldwide. However, despite the fact that such organizations introduce new incentives, these incentives rarely are something more than just papers and agreements. Many countries ignore international instances, or accept such incentives only on paper.

We can see effects that discrimination causes on religion, race, and other specific groups of people. In USA, race discrimination still remains a hot issue, due to a number of illegal actions of police against black people. Populistic rhetoric of conservative politicians pushes racists to express their hate in public, promoting racism. There is also discrimination of the aborigines in Australia, since their culture is quite different from European culture. White majority don’t understand native people of Australia, creating distance between social groups. Another common type of discrimination is religious discrimination. In USA, this issue became a common topic for discussions after the introduction of Trump’s so-called Muslim ban. Islamic terrorists formed a common image of Muslims as terrorists and danger for civilized world. It is a stereotype which can lead to discriminatory immigration policy. Religious discrimination is dangerous to the world’s peace, since every religion has a lot of believers, so every time when rights of this group are violated somewhere on the planet, it may cause large-scale conflicts and wars.

According to studies, discrimination causes a direct effect on victim’s behavior. Moreover, different types of discrimination have a direct impact on a particular group, and an additional effect on other groups. For example, racial discrimination affects people suffered from ethnic discrimination, leading to depression and anxiety.

It takes a lot of time for victims of discrimination to cope with consequences. All victims need to fight against their fear, depression, and low self-esteem, searching for ways to survive within a society. Every victim faces the need to develop his or her own strategy of behavior. Some victims even try to ignore discrimination, and deny it. They claim that a certain incident was caused by other reasons, or they try to justify such discrimination, searching for the reason in their own behavior, look, words, etc. Another common strategy of victims is avoidance. People try to avoid or ignore situations that can cause discriminatory incidents with the highest probability. Obviously, such a practice cannot decrease the level of discrimination, since these people intentionally increase distance between them and majority, thus making it harder to integrate discriminated groups in the society. Obviously, world peace is impossible within such conditions. Discrimination divides and dissolves the society, creating an auspicious environment for wars.

Conclusion

Discrimination is a biggest challenge for modern societies. First of all, discrimination represents a threat to democracy, since latter is based on principles of equality. Discrimination is widely supported in societies based on strict hierarchy. Usually such societies build hierarchies based on religion, gender, or origin. Most of such societies support discrimination and promote it. In turn, Democracy represents efforts to build equal society, where equality is a basis of human rights. Of course, any kinds of discrimination are threats for such an idea.

Not only is discrimination a threat to the civilized society, but for its direct victims as well. Discrimination directly violates rights of a person, leading to a number of bad consequences. Such consequences may vary depending on the type of violence against this victim, alienation, psychological problems, exclusion, and so on.

First of all, discrimination is selfish. Our point is that discrimination is wrong, doesn’t matter which kind of discrimination it is. Discrimination is everywhere, in every country, and in every part of our everyday lives. There are many different causes of discrimination, and one of the most common causes is parents that always teach their kids to think the way they do. Parents who support racism, sexism, homophobia, raise their children and spread these dangerous diseases. First of all, parents shouldn’t teach their children hate, since hate always produces only more hate, which leads to discriminatory actions, conflicts, and wars. We already mentioned a lot of problems caused by discrimination. The only way to stop discrimination is to implement proper laws and protect human rights at the government level. In turn, the society must support victims of discrimination, helping them to cope with consequences, as well as to integrate in the society.

Discrimination	Дискриминация
Among the most urgent social problems of modern world is discrimination. Discrimination is treating someone in a worse way than other people for some reasons. And there are many types of it. For example, discrimination of disabled people. Nowadays there are not so many jobs that these people can do. Companies often refuse to give jobs to them because it is not comfortable or they can spoil the image of the firm. There is also sex discrimination. For example often women can’t get a good job or in some countries they get less money than men. Young women can’t often get a job because the employer thinks they are going to get pregnant soon. Or in the opposite, some jobs are only given to young and pretty girls and then they come across the cases of sexual harassment. In some countries women and men don’t have equal rights. The most often cases of discrimination is racism and religion discrimination. There are so many conflicts happening around the world because of skin colour. People fight and even kill each other just because they have different colour of skin. I think this is very stupid, it doesn’t have any sense, such people don’t fight to freedom or some ideas, they just behave in a foolish way. They are very limited in their world perception and understanding. The same is with religion discrimination. Every country has its own religion, which is considered the main. But there are also people who have other beliefs and they also have the right to exist in the same state and have equal rights. So I think discrimination is something that humiliates all the people – the ones who are discriminated as well as those who discriminate.	Одна из самых острых социальных проблем современного мира – дискриминация. Дискриминация – это более плохое отношение к кому-то по сравнению с другими по каким-либо причинам. И существует много ее типов. Например, дискриминация людей с ограниченными возможностями. Сегодня существует не так много мест работы, где могли бы быть заняты такие люди. Компании часто отказываются давать им работу, потому что это неудобно или это портит образ фирмы. Также существует дискриминация по половому признаку. Например, женщины зачастую не могут получить хорошую работу, а в некоторых странах они получают меньше денег, чем мужчины. Молодые женщины не могут устроиться на работу, потому что работодатель считает, что она может вскоре забеременеть. И наоборот, некоторые должности достаются только молодым и красивым девушкам, а затем он сталкиваются с сексуальными домогательствами. В некоторых странах у мужчин и женщин неравные права. Самые частые случаи дискриминации – это расизм и религиозная дискриминация. Во всем мире происходит так много конфликтов из-за цвета кожи. Люди дерутся и даже убивают друг друга только потому, что у них другой цвет кожи. Я считаю, что это глупо, не имеет никакого смысла, такие люди не борются за свободу или какие-либо идеи, они просто глупо себя ведут. Они очень ограничены в своем восприятии и понимании мира. То же самое и с религиозной дискриминацией. В каждой стране есть своя религия, которая считается главной. Но там также живут и люди с другим вероисповеданием и они также имеют право существовать в том же государстве и иметь равные права. Я думаю, что дискриминация унижает людей – тех, кого дискриминируют, как и тех, кто дискриминирует.

Дискриминация/ Discrimination

Обновлено: 10.01.2023

Nowadays the issue of gender equality is incredibly relevant for our society. Some people believe that there are only male or only female professions, whereas others do not agree with them.

I strongly believe that the choice of profession should not depend on the person’s gender. To begin with, some old prohibitions that prevented women from becoming full members of society no longer exist. Secondly, it is scientifically proven that men are not smarter than women. In addition, access to education is now available to all. Thirdly, contemporary businessmen tend to have mixed stuff because it is more efficient to combine man’s and woman’s abilities in one activity.

However, others claim that both sexes can work not in all professional fields.

Firstly, men are much stronger than women, so they can perform physically demanding work. Moreover, there are such professions that men will never want to get: seamstress, nanny, teacher, cosmetologist and so on.

Nevertheless, I cannot agree with this opinion. In our world a huge number of brave and strong girls work as police officers, firefighters, pilots, and soldiers. What is more, now lots of men are beginning to work in the beauty field, in kindergartens and schools.

To sum up, I want to say that gender discrimination is a terrible phenomenon of the past centuries. There is no limitation for the men and women in the job market except prejudice.

В наше время проблема гендерного равенства невероятно актуальна для нашего общества. Некоторые люди считают, что есть только мужские или только женские профессии, тогда как другие не согласны с ними.

Я твердо верю, что выбор профессии не должен зависеть от пола человека. Начнем с того, что некоторые старые запреты, которые мешали женщинам становиться полноправными членами общества, больше не существуют. Во-вторых, научно доказано, что мужчины не умнее женщин. Кроме того, доступ к образованию теперь доступен для всех. В-третьих, современные бизнесмены, как правило, смешанные вещи, потому что более эффективно объединить способности мужчины и женщины в одной деятельности.

Однако другие утверждают, что оба пола могут работать не во всех профессиональных сферах. Во-первых, мужчины намного сильнее женщин, поэтому они могут выполнять физически тяжелую работу. Более того, есть такие профессии, которые мужчины никогда не захотят получить: швея, няня, учитель, косметолог и так далее.

Тем не менее, я не могу согласиться с этим мнением. В нашем мире огромное количество смелых и сильных девушек работают полицейскими, пожарными, пилотами и солдатами. Более того, сейчас многие мужчины начинают работать в сфере красоты, в детских садах и школах.

Подводя итог, хочу сказать, что дискриминация по признаку пола является ужасным явлением прошлых веков. На рынке труда нет ограничений для мужчин и женщин, кроме предрассудков.

«All people give birth free and equal in the dignity and rights». This first phrase of Universal declaration of human rights, becoming known worldwide, 60 back pawned basis of international law in area of human rights. However for millions of people all over the world fight against discrimination and now remains an everyday fight.
Millions of people in the whole world not in forces to contest with discrimination with which they clash practically everywhere in the everyday life. Unfortunately, as we could look after during the last twenty years, politician of the ethnic cleaning, genocide and the policy based on discriminatory ideologies, resulted in destruction of lives, banishment and death of people.
By the criterion of discrimination and indicator that, as she comes true at informal level in different associations, the educations given about a level can serve, employment, representative office in political structures, and also quantitative indexes of criminality and poverty.
In spite of nascent problems and failures, discriminations resisted, and will resist. There are quite a bit successful examples demonstrating, that this trouble can put an end.

Each person has his own personality. Everyone chooses what to do. But sometimes, people do not realize this and begin to separate not like other people. That’s not cool at all! Unfortunately, it will not be possible to completely remove discrimination, because discrimination is like love and hatred, will always exist! But love is always stronger than hate. You just have to find the right kind people to accept you for who you are.

Peer pressure / Давление со стороны сверстников

It is very important for most people to be a member of a group. The attitude of group members can influence self-esteem greatly. Children spend a lot of time in school. Of course, it is important for every student what the classmates think of him. Many children try to adapt to the group they belong to. They begin to replicate the behavior of their peers, even if they do not consider it appropriate.

Under peer pressure a student may develop bad habits. Some children get involved in bullying because they are afraid to become a victim themselves. There are teenagers who give up their own style and choose clothes and hairstyles only according to fashion. Sometimes children ask parents to buy expensive gadgets for them, not taking into account the financial capabilities of their family.

Actually, the influence of the group might be positive as well. Parents always try to choose a good school for the child. The achievements of the peers motivate the student to keep up with them.

Some people are born leaders and have a strong character. It is harder for a shy person to defend his or her opinion. But all of us must learn to do it. In adulthood, we will have to make our own decisions, and bear responsibility for them.

As for me, I feel quite comfortable among my classmates. I guess I am lucky. But I am ready to defend my opinion, if I have to.

Для большинства людей очень важно быть членом группы. Отношение коллектива может сильно влиять на самооценку. Дети проводят много времени в школе. Конечно, для каждого школьника важно, что о нем думают одноклассники. Многие дети стараются подстроиться под группу, в которой находятся. Они начинают копировать поведение своих сверстников, даже если не считают его правильным.

Под давлением сверстников у школьника могут появиться вредные привычки. Некоторые дети начинают участвовать в травле, потому что сами бояться оказаться на месте жертвы. Есть подростки, которые отказываются от своего стиля и выбирают одежду и прическу исключительно по моде. Иногда дети просят родителей купить им дорогие гаджеты, не принимая во внимание возможности своей семьи.

На самом деле влияние коллектива бывает и положительным. Родители всегда стараются выбрать хорошую школу для ребенка. Ведь успехи сверстников мотивируют ученика не отставать от них.

Некоторые люди рождаются с сильным характером и лидерскими качествами. Застенчивым людям сложнее отстаивать свое мнение. Но мы все должны этому научиться. Ведь во взрослой жизни мы будем самостоятельно принимать решения, и нести за них ответственность.

Что касается меня, то я чувствую себя вполне комфортно среди своих одноклассников. Наверное, мне повезло. Но я готов отстаивать свое мнение, если придется.

Essay About Discrimination
Uniformity and exception from segregation are basic human rights that have a place with all individuals, paying little mind to sexual direction, sex character or the fact that they are intersex. The Sex Discrimination Act 1984 makes it unlawful to separate based on an individual’s sexual direction, sex personality and intersex status. However, a large part of society still rejects people simply based on sexual preference, heedless of this and other actions against such behavior.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and intersex (LGBTI) individuals in Australia still experience separation and provocation in numerous areas of regular day to day existence; at work and study, at various administrations and verifying and acknowledging their sexuality in official records and documents.
Australia sanctioned the same-sex marriage act on 9 December 2017. States and regions started allowing household organization advantages and relationship acknowledgment to same-sex couples from 2003 onwards, with government law perceiving (since 2009) same-sex couples as accepted connections. Same-sex connections might be perceived by states or domains in different ways aside from marriage, including through common associations, residential organizations, enlisted connections or potentially as unregistered true connections. There have been numerous protests and public acts of discrimination against LGBT people since and before 2003 however, with various schools in Australia still observing the right to expel children based on sexuality, and a number of protests during the period of the postal vote for same-sex marriage.
Australia is perceived as a standout amongst the most gay-accommodating nations on the planet, with assessment surveys and the Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey showing across the board well-known help for same-sex marriage. A 2013 Pew Research survey found that 79% of Australians concurred that homosexuality ought to be acknowledged by society, making it the fifth-most steady nation studied on the planet. Although, with its long history of LGBT activism and yearly Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras celebration, Sydney has been named a standout amongst the most gay-accommodating urban communities in Australia, and the world all in all. While this is perceivably the case, LGBT people are still alienated in Australian society.
There was a recent UN inquiry into the experiences of LGBT people in day to day life, in which one man responded with the experiences of his two daughters, one being in a same-sex relationship, and one in an opposite-sex relationship. “recently,” he states “while visiting my daughter Sacha, Anna, her partner, came home in pain because of a bad ear infection. Before departing to go to the emergency room, I couldn’t help but notice Sacha gathering up all these papers with information about their relationship. Which when we got there, was one of the first questions asked. My other daughter simply has to be there with her [male] partner, and no further questions are required.”
Before same-sex marriage gave the programmed legitimate assurances that it was legal for wedded couples to acquire resources and benefits from the state, same-sex couples needed to take explicit lawful activities. People were not qualified for complete benefits after their same-sex partner’s death. Same-sex and true couples who isolated themselves additionally did not have similar property rights as wedded couples under government law, and were required to utilize progressively costly State Courts, instead of the Family Court, to determine debates. The arrangement to give comparable rights to LGBT people had been up for talk since 2002, and all states inevitably concurred, however, the change was blocked on the grounds that the Howard Government demanded inequality between same-sex and opposite sex couples.
In June 2008, the Rudd Government presented the Family Law Amendment (De Facto Financial Matters and Other Measures) bill 2008 to permit same-sex and true couples’ access to the bureaucratic Family Court on property and support matters, instead of the State Supreme Court. This change was not part of the 100 fairness measures guaranteed by the Government, however, originated from the 2002 understanding between the states and domains that the past Howard Government did not satisfy. Eventually, support for the bill grew and it was passed on November 2008.
Expectations for everyday comforts and defensive laws for LGBT people and groups have improved significantly throughout the years, however, LGBT people are still not treated equally and are not given the same benefits and protections that are given to others. It is important that moving into the future, all individuals should have equal rights and equal opportunities in this nation.
