Question

ms. philippi receives a report that two boys in 6th grade have been caught fighting during recess. when she learns that one of the students is african american, she infers that he is more likely to have started the fight because he is african american. after interviewing both students in her office, she suspends the african american student, but allows the other student to return to class after giving him a stern warning. her inference that the african american student was more likely to start the fight is an example of _____ whereas her behavior of suspending that student but not the other one is an example of _____.

Answer 1

Her inference that the African American student was more likely to start the fight is an example of stereotyping whereas her behavior of suspending that student but not the other one is an example of discrimination.

Stereotyping simply refers to the generalized belief about a particular group of people. Discrimination is the act of making unjustified distinctions about a particular group of people.

Since she stated that the African American student was more likely to start the fight, this is an example of stereotyping and the fact that she only suspended one student is discrimination.
