Abstract:

Discrimination, whether by conscious or unconscious means, can have significant and often long-lasting negative consequences on the afflicted group. Many theories have been developed to help explain the driving force of discrimination. The need for selfesteem (positive social status from within a group rather than outside a group), status (hierarchies within society), and self-interest (preserving resources) are among the most common elements.1 The actions of the offending group need not be carried out in an overt conspiratorial manner to have a coordinated effect on another group or person. Many individuals within the group carrying out the offense need not be involved, unaware of the problem or may even be openly opposed to the actions.
