Discrimination in American society By Name of the student Name of the institution Name of the instructor and course code Introduction Discrimination has been and continues to be an evergreen subject in the American society. In the wake of the 17th century (Bonilla-Silva et al. 2017) unequal treatment of people was the order of the day for instance the slaves who worked in farms had little or no rights and theirs was to only serve the master. America is said to be on top of the game on matters development from innovation to top-notch technology but it is with no doubt that they have for a long time been seared in the flames of withering discrimination acts. Discrimination bears hallmarks of judging and treating someone with a stereotype for example based on race gender or religion. Over the ages many people i.e. the blacks have found themselves victims of called discrimination. References Bonilla-Silva E. (2017).
