Why do you think ethnocentrism tends to encourage discrimination?

Ethnocentrism is the act of using our own culture as a standard to measure or judge another culture.

This would create a perception in our head that other culture is inferior compared to ours, which is why our culture is the one that is used as the representation of an ideal culture. Since we see other culture as inferior, we would become much more likely to discriminate the member of the other culture.

world war i had a devastating effect on german-americans and their cultural heritage. up until that point   german-americans, as a group, had been spared much of the discrimination, abuse, rejection, collective mistrust experienced by so many different racial and ethnic groups in the history of the united states. indeed, over the years, they had been viewed as a well integrated and esteemed part of american society. all of this change with the outbreak of war.
