INTRODUCTION
Think of a time when you suffered from some type of discrimination: as a child trying to order something in a restaurant, as a woman trying to get her car fixed, as a man trying to arrange child care, as a young adult trying to serve the elderly, or as an elderly person trying to serve the young. There has been a time in your life when your status was defined by your personal characteristics. How did that make you feel? Could you have done anything about it? Our species has discriminated against a person not in our group from the beginning, based on survival. Over time, belief systems have created the sense of different or other, which is viewed as wrong or dangerous.
Before you take part in this unit, think about those groups or individuals whom you would not choose as neighbors. Where does your need to separate come from? Would your parents agree? Did you have a bad experience with members of the groups? Do you know anyone on a personal level from the groups?
If you cannot understand what influences our own instinct to discriminate, it will be difficult to help clients to understand and deal with discrimination they may experience.
