    I do agree Discrimination happens every where. Discrimination can be about many different hings such as race, gender or disabilities one might have.
  •  
    This article talks about how discrimination can be found anywhere. I think that this article is very important. People being discriminated against sometimes feel like they are powerless to speak up and recognizing it as a issue will bring more confidence to those who struggle.

    This article is about discrimination against mentally ill people in the workplace. It includes negative experiences of those who have mentioned their illness during interviews, and those who are already employed.

    This is so true and sad. I have a friend who has bad PTSD and they treat it as a joke at his workplace. Mental illness is so prevalent and even now we are finding out so much about it and just how many people are affected by it.
  •  
    I do have a problem with this because I have Asperger Syndrome. I do hear of some getting fired just because of their disability. I would never want to get fired because of a disability. If they did that to me, I'm hiring a lawyer. I'm sure that I'd win the case because they would find it as discrimination.

    People with mental illnesses should not be treated differently, they did not ask to be born with an illness it just happens. Humans should be look for more ways to help people then discriminate them. It saddens me that mental illnesses seem to be frowned upon more then saying you have been to jail.

    This link shows everything wrong with our world right now. I am constantly outraged by the wage gap, and how employers are allowed to get away with it. It blows my mind that so many people claim that men and women are CURRENTLY treated the same way, when clearly they are not. p.s i actually book marked this link on my computer, that way i can send it to anyone who disagrees.
  •  
    This has been an ongoing issue for us women since day one. inequality in employment, wages and opportunities is extremely unjust. I think the more its brought to the surface and the more we show we still haven't forgotten, we will eventually get somewhere. Just like when we all came together for women's rights on inauguration day :)
  •  
    Women's right are changing. Women's need equal opportunities in workplace and education. This link is showing us how unfair is society with females. Hopefully in the future everybody is going to be equal and we will have the same opportunities.
  •  
    It seems that for all of the changes that have been made, a lot still needs to be done. There is no excuse for our country or any other country to still be dealing with unequal rights for women. The violence is disgusting, as well as discrimination and unequal pay. Thank you for sharing.
  •  
    As a woman, I believe we have definitely come a long way. However, I believe we are not completely equal to males yet, which we should be. More changes need to be done.
  •  
    The fact that women and other people in our country and other countries have to even fight to be equal is disgusting. We are all the same and deserve to be treated the same. The fight must continue.
  •  
    It is crazy to think that in 2017 that we as humans can't treat one another the same as you would want to be treated yourself. I am not a woman but I do have a wife and daughter that I would hate/despise if they were treated any less than myself for any reason.

    This article describes the various ways that POC are treated differently. This can cause doctors to provide the wrong treatment or no treatment for the minority who don't have access to healthcare.
  •  
    The fact that we continue to face and see discrimination when it comes to health care is appalling. When dealing with health, health care providers should not be biased on who to help due to their skin color or certain characteristics.
  •  
    There is no reason why there should still be discrimination in health care, they're saving your life regardless of your color.
