What forms of subtle implicit discrimination do you recognize around you? Explain

Examples include:

1. A female employee not given certain rigorous projects which she is interested in. This leaves her wondering if her gender could be the cause of the exemption.

2. A Chinese employee who was exempted from a get together at his workplace (which is dominated with Africans) and he wonders if it was a result of his nationality.

Explanation:

Discrimination is the act of segregating or exhibiting prejudice on a particular set of people for reasons such as race, gender, age, or sex. Discrimination could be overt or subtle. Overt discrimination is frontal and more recognizable when compared to subtle discrimination which is more blurry and difficult to recognize.

For example, if a prospective employer expressly says that female employees are not needed for a role, it is quite easy to recognize this as a form of discrimination. This illustrates overt discrimination. But then subtle implicit discrimination are more difficult to recognize. They leave the victim wondering if the act was actually discriminatory and it is quite harder to lodge legal complaints about these types of discrimination. Examples are some of these stated above.
