Racial discrimination refers to the unfair treatment or prejudice against individuals based on their race, skin color, or ethnicity. It involves stereotyping and assigning negative characteristics to people simply because they belong to a particular racial group. This can manifest in various ways such as denying opportunities for education or employment, excluding them from social events or public spaces, subjecting them to harassment or violence, among others. Racial discrimination is a form of inequality that has negative consequences on the individuals and society at large, and it is considered a violation of human rights.
