Racial Discrimination in the Philippines

         Almost everywhere people experience discrimination. As we observed discrimination is always an issue not only in the Philippines but even in other countries. Why discrimination happens? Why need to treat others badly and unfairly when we all know that we are all equal in the eyes of God?

Discrimination involves any act where a person is treated unfairly because of their different color, race, nationality, gender, physical appearance and physical disability. Many engaged in discriminating others. Why this happens? Is it just for fun or is it intentionally to hurt others?

 

     Discrimination occurs for many reasons. Some people discriminate simply because that is how they were raised. Others do it because they have a problem accepting anyone who isn't like themselves. But mostly, they all do it simply because they are ignorant.

          Discrimination in our country   has seen in different areas. Prominent and rich person showed using the poor people as their slaves. Some discrimination experienced in the workplace like in job application and assignment of work position. In school, discrimination occurs and it started in bullying. Most of the students were being bullied every day. They were being teased and repeatedly harmed .It involves repeated physical, verbal attacks or intimidation directed against a victim who cannot properly defend him or herself. In some cases, bullying also lead to crime and to  death.

Now that we already know how discrimination is done. Let us try to identify and determine the solutions for it. Let us not judge and treat others badly. Let us respect the rights of every individual. Let us all be one and accept others just what like what God did.
