I think this particular topic of my article should ring a bell in all our ears as it's not new to anyone of us anymore.

What do we do briefly understand by the word discrimination?

According to Oxford dictionary;

"Discrimination can be described as the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of race, age, sex or disability".

It could also be described as the recognition and understanding between one thing or another especially in the aspect of differentiating between right and wrong.

Discrimination can also be expressed in some words like hatred, racism, distinguishing, bias, intolerance, favouritism, prejudice, unfairness etc.......

Most of us thought discrimination (racism) implies the demonstration of hatred and favouritism among the whites towards the blacks and vice versa. Hell no! Discrimination can occur anywhere even among the same ethic groups, religions or backgrounds. It might start from society gatherings, communities, states, countries and the world at large. Discrimination can also occur in any form such as:

• Discrimination in sex and age

• Discrimination in religious beliefs

• Discrimination in physical disability

• Discrimination in language and beliefs

• And lastly discrimination by complexion.

Discrimination in sex and age

We find this so rampant among the females in every society or social gathering. They prefer to establish relationship with their fellow gender mates and ages by preventing the interference of the opposite gender in any situation they find themselves. They tend to stay classic in their different realms.

Discrimination in religious beliefs

We can also find this everywhere too most especially among religious countries like the Arabians that consists of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq etc. They don't fancy the intrusion of other religions into their system rather than that of the Islam's thereby causing riot and massive killing among themselves.

Discrimination in physical disability

This happens most at every region or state. We tend to show less care and kindness towards the disabled people such as the sick, blind, paralyzed, deafs, dumbs etc. staying around us, and most of these disabled people happened to be part of our relatives, society citizens that share the same language, beliefs and culture with us.

Disability in language and beliefs

This is also a form of discrimination whereby people with the same language doesn't like to create relationship with another language that differs from theirs. They tend to keep secrets of information and resources regarding financial and economic growth among themselves.

Discrimination in complexion

I can boldly say this is commonest and top of all discrimination forms. This happens as a result of hatred and favouritism among citizens of a country due to differences in their complexions. It mostly occurs everywhere too but more specifically among the Black Americans and the White Americans which has ever been causing riots up till today.

In the world at large today, discrimination has caused a lot crisis, chaos and other forms of bad occurrences thereby resulting to hatred among ethic groups, societies, states and countries. It has also been resulting to improper economic growth and development because everyone would feel reluctant to share ideas and beliefs among themselves, keeping things to themselves as a secret.

In summary;

According to my own view, I think we can all put an end to this discrimination issues of a thing by taking heed of the following measures;

• Create a circle of love amidst any gathering we might find ourselves. Don't be partial to anyone in form of relationship and showing care.

• Also feel free to share ideas, suggestions or resources to people that you know they lack or ignorant of irrespective of their backgrounds, age, sex, religion, languages etc.

With these few procedures, I think they might help us put a stop to discrimination among ourselves.
