Detailed Solution

When people act on their prejudices or stereotypes, they commit discrimination.
When we do not treat others equally or with respect, we discriminate. When we treat someone differently or draw a distinction, it is when discrimination usually occurs. We are discriminating against them if we do something to put them down. Suppose we prevent them from participating in particular activities and taking up occupations, from residing in specific neighbourhoods or prevent them from drinking tea from the same well or hand pump as others. These are called discrimination.
