of their association with or perceived connection to a group. Acts of discrimination take many different forms. For example, a tourist asked to pay a higher price for a place to stay because the landlord thinks he has a lot of money, whiles the locals pay a lower rate for the same facility.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Unknowingly many of us have treated others unfairly. In the same way, many of us have also been victims of unfair treatment.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sometimes, there could be a reasonable explanation for a perceived discrimination act, and unlike physical abuse or rape, there may be no evidence of the act, and it may be difficult to prove that there has been a discrimination incident.<\/span><\/p><figure id=\"attachment_1111\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1111\" style=\"width: 570px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1111\" src=\"https:\/\/eschooltoday.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/what-does-discrimination-and-prejudice-look-like-2.jpg\" alt=\"What is discrimination and how does it look like?\" width=\"570\" height=\"304\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eschooltoday.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/what-does-discrimination-and-prejudice-look-like-2.jpg 570w, https:\/\/eschooltoday.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/what-does-discrimination-and-prejudice-look-like-2-300x160.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1111\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">What is discrimination and how does it look like?<\/figcaption><\/figure><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Exclusion and rejection are key ingredients of discrimination. They occur when people do not appreciate diversity or differences.

For example, some jobs (Example: kindergarten teaching) were done by women because they are thought to be more nurturing. That is a stereotype.
