i deprogrammed my friends teenagers on this subject.
all it took was a little common sense dialogue.
this is a paraphrase of the conservation i had with them.
them : discrimination is bad
me: is all discrimination bad ?
them: yes.
me: who told you that ?
them: we learned that at school
me: if you went to make your lunch to take to school , and the baloney was green with black mold growing on it , would it be a bad thing to discriminate against it and not use it for your lunch sandwich ?
them : no.
me: then not all discrimination is bad. the reasons for discrimination are what is good or bad. .
Or even better what if the cook at the school cafeteria is blind and can’t see the mold on the meat? Then your teenage friend isn’t the only one who gets sick.
