Undermining Dignity: Racial Discrimination
Racial discrimination is the discrimination of a race unfavorable to a group or an individual. An example of this, the picture above, with a Chinese boy, probably taking a math class and writing a formula on the blackboard. People discriminate Chinese people, saying how they are 'nerds' because they take extra curricular classes like math and how serious they are about their school marks. Other examples of racial discrimination is appearance, culture, and activities. Racism offends people most because not only are they making fun of a person, but their entire race. The offended person or people's dignity becomes undermined and they feel upset, shocked, embarrassed of their race, and angry.
