PREJUDICE & DISCRIMINATION IN A HISTORICAL
CONTEXT
"No (modern) society or nation has been immune to prejudice and discrimination,
either as victim or victimizer. Contemporary forms of prejudice and discrimination
date back to when European colonizers penetrated and transformed previously isolated
societies and peoples. Discriminatory practices include genocide, slavery, legislated
discrimination (such as Apartheid), discriminatory immigration laws, and social exclusion
at the institutional level (such as in schools and hospitals)."
