2. Religious intolerance
is intolerance of another's religious beliefs or practices or lack thereof.
Mere statements which are contrary to one's beliefs do not constitute intolerance. Religious intolerance,
rather, occurs when a group (e.g., a society, a religious group, a non-religious group) specifically refuses to
tolerate one's practices, persons or beliefs on religious grounds.

5. What is disability discrimination?
Disability discrimination is when you are treated less well or put at a disadvantage for a reason
that relates to your disability in one of the situations covered by the Equality Act.
The treatment could be a one-off action, the application of a rule or policy or the existence of
physical or communication barriers which make accessing something difficult or impossible.
The discrimination does not have to be intentional to be unlawful.

11. What is political belief or activity discrimination?
While political belief or activity is not defined in the Act, case law indicates that it means
beliefs or activities relating to the policies, structure, composition, roles, obligations, purposes
or activities of government. Government includes the Commonwealth, State and local
governments.
Discrimination on the basis of political belief or activity can be direct or indirect. Direct discrimination is
treating a person less favourably because of their political belief or activity, or because they hold different
political beliefs, than someone without the political belief or activity or different political beliefs would be
treated in similar circumstances.

13. Both ‘racism’ and ‘race’ are highly contested concepts. Some argue that race itself is a construction without a basis in biology. Racism is subject to
several interpretations, involving, for example, skin discrimination, biological derogation, cultural supremacy and ideological considerations of
racial identity, so it may be preferable to speak of racisms. Arguably racism needs to be considered in specific contexts of exclusion and hierarchy.
However, if there is a common core and racism refers to discrimination on the basis of race membership, then this exposes affirmative action to the
charge of racism.

14. Everyone must have the same
rights, obligations and
opportunities, irrespective of
ethnic background. The
Equality and Anti-
Discrimination Act provides
protection against ethnic
discrimination.

15. National origin discrimination involves treating people (applicants or employees) unfavorably because they
are from a particular country or part of the world, because of ethnicity or accent, or because they appear
to be of a certain ethnic background (even if they are not).
National origin discrimination also can involve treating people unfavorably because they are married to (or
associated with) a person of a certain national origin.
Discrimination can occur when the victim and the person who inflicted the discrimination are the same
national origin.

16. What is national origin discrimination?
When an individual is treated differently because of the country where they were born, their ancestry, culture, linguistic
characteristics (if common to a specific ethnic group) or accent, they have been discriminated against on the basis of their
national origin. An employment action based upon any of these things constitutes illegal discrimination. Discrimination of this
kind goes beyond ia single individual's characteristics.

17. “There should be no discrimination against
languages people speak, skin color, or religion.”

18. Crimes motivated by intolerance and discrimination

19. Hate crimes are crimes based on prejudice. They happen everywhere;
no society is immune to the effects of prejudice and intolerance.
Individual hate crimes carry the seeds of potential conflicts, as they can
escalate both in terms of numbers and levels of violence. If this is
understood and firm measures taken, the cycle of violence can be
stopped.

20. A hate crime (also known as a bias-motivated crime or bias crime) is a prejudice-motivated
crime which occurs when a perpetrator targets a victim because of their membership (or
perceived membership) of a certain social group or race.
Examples of such groups can include, and are almost exclusively limited
to ethnicity, disability, language, nationality, physical appearance, religion, gender identity…
Non-criminal actions that are motivated by these reasons are often called "bias incidents".

21. Lookism is a term that describes the discriminatory treatment of people who are considered
physically unattractive. It occurs in a variety of settings, including dating, social environments, and workplaces

22. Physical unattractiveness has received less
cultural attention than other forms of
discrimination and typically does not have
the legal protections that other forms
often have, but it is still widespread and
significantly affects peoples opportunities
in terms of romantic relationships, job
opportunities, and other realms of life.

23. Physical attractiveness is associated with positive qualities; in
contrast, physical unattractiveness is associated with
negative qualities. Many people make judgments of others
based on their physical appearance which influence how
they respond to these people. Research on the "what
beautiful is good" stereotype shows that, overall, those who
are physically attractive benefit from their good looks:
physically attractive individuals are perceived more
positively and physical attractiveness has a strong influence
on judgment of a person's competence

25. “Your beliefs become your
thoughts,
Your thoughts become your
words,
Your words become your
actions,
Your actions become your
habits,
Your habits become your
values,
Your values become your
destiny.”
― Gandhi

27. “Where, after all, do universal human rights begin? In small places, close to home — so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. […] Unless
these rights have meaning there, they have little meaning anywhere. Without concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the
larger world.” — Eleanor Roosevelt

28. “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek,
receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.”
― UnitedNations, UniversalDeclarationof HumanRights
