Apartheid is discrimination of people on the basis of colour of their skin. Can you think of examples you have come across where people were teased because of the colour of their skin or any other reason? How did you respond to the situation?​

Answer:

Discrimination based on skin color, also known as colorism or shadeism, is a form of prejudice or discrimination in which people who are usually members of the same race are treated differently based on the social implications which come with the cultural meanings which are attached to skin color.

Racism is typically understood to be discrimination committed against people of a different ethnicity. Colorism on the other hand highlights biases that proliferate between persons who are members of different ethnic groups as well as biases that proliferate between persons who are members of the same ethnic group. It is the belief that someone with any degree of lighter complexion is considered more beautiful or valuable than someone with dark skin.Research has found extensive evidence of discrimination based on skin color in criminal justice, business, the economy, housing, health care, media, and politics in the United States and Europe. Lighter skin tones are considered preferable in many countries in Africa, Asia and South America. The World Health Organization (WHO) warns that mercury salts, which inhibit the production of melanin, the chemical hydroquinone, their inclusion in many skin-lightening products, and frequent manufacturer and supplier evasion of regulations surrounding these harmful ingredients,[3] make the use of such products an acute public health risk.[4] Clobetasol propionate is another ingredient of concern.

When I read class 4 there was a girl who was black because of a disease but everyone teased her and always told her that why are you so black and don't sit with that girl.... then one day I told everyone that if they were in the position of the girl then others would teased them and don't sit with them.

That day they all realized what mistake they have done and began to talk with the girl,sit beside her,shared their tiffin with her.
