People sometimes infer from a label that someone identifies as that they are bad or good. Putting a group of people in a box of supposedly bad people because of their similar identity. This can lead to the -Isms. Isms include Racism, Sexism, Classism, anti-semitism and many more. People can think lightly of these terms however they are very serious topics.
This PDf from university of pittsburgh explains the definitions of 8 types of the -Ism. Also some connections between them, what it can lead to and examples. At the end there is a script for a video about gender and sexuality. Explaining how it can affect people causing struggles.
Please do not participate or let any of them happen. Be respectful of other people and labels that take part in there identity.
How do you think you should act if someone talks or follows some of these isms?
How should you support someone who faced one of these?
What would you do if you were faced with one of these?
Have you ever faced these? How did you feel? What did you do?
