2 a Read the case studies (A-C). Who is discriminating against each person? Why?

A Paolo (15) is teased at school because he is Italian. He has to have extra lessons for his English reading and writing skills. He often feels nervous about going to school. His teacher knows he is unhappy but isn't doing anything about it.

B Meg (49) was made redundant from her job as a secretary last year at the age of 49. She loved her job and would like to find a similar one. She keeps applying for secretarial positions and has joined a placement agency. However, she has only been called to a couple of interviews which she feels didn't go very well even though she is highly qualified. She suspects that employers are looking for younger secretaries. She doesn't know what to do.

C Julie (17) has always been a bit of a tomboy. She loves the outdoors and does a lot of extreme sports. She often wears combat trousers and trainers and isn't keen on fashion or make-up. Unfortunately, the girls at school don't talk to her and never invite her out. They sometimes even make fun of her. She feels hurt and thinks that people don't always accept her for who she is, but she is reluctant to talk to anyone about it.

b Now read the advice about stopping discrimination. What should Paolo, Meg and Julie do? Why?

► A: I think Paolo should talk to a teacher because ...

► B: I agree. He can also ...

Put an end to discrimination!

✓ Don't suffer in silence. Call a helpline for advice or share your problem with a friend, a teacher or someone you trust. A problem shared is a problem halved!

✓ Know your rights. Remember: discrimination is illegal in Great Britain in employment, education, housing etc. Schools, police and employers have a responsibility to protect you!

✓ Get other people involved. If you're feeling brave, start an anti-discrimination group in your school, university, youth group etc. You could provide a counselling service or invite guest speakers along.

✓ Above all, never give up! If you're finding it difficult to get a job, keep on applying. If you're being bullied because of your race, keep on fighting!

EVERYONE HAS A RIGHT TO LIVE HAPPILY AND FREE FROM DISCRIMINATION, NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE!

2 a Прочитайте примеры из жизни (A-C). Кто дискриминирует каждого человека? Почему?

Ответ:

A Paolo is being discriminated against by other students at school because he is Italian.

(Паоло дискриминируют другие ученики в школе, потому что он итальянец.)

B Meg is being discriminated against by potential employers because of her age. They seem to be looking for younger secretaries.

(Мэг дискриминируют потенциальные работодатели из-за ее возраста. Похоже, они ищут более молодых секретарей.)

C Julie is being discriminated against by other girls at school because she is a "tomboy" and doesn't dress or act like they think a girl should.

(Джули дискриминируют другие девочки в школе, потому что она "пацанка" и одевается или ведет себя не так, как, по их мнению, должна вести себя девочка.)

2 b Теперь прочитайте советы о том, как остановить дискриминацию. Что следует делать Паоло, Мэг и Джули?

Ответ:

Paolo should talk to a teacher or someone he trusts. He shouldn't suffer in silence, and a teacher has a responsibility to help him.

(Паоло следует поговорить с учителем или кем-то, кому он доверяет. Он не должен страдать молча, а учитель обязан ему помочь.)

Meg should know her rights, as age discrimination in employment is illegal. She should also never give up and keep applying for jobs.

(Мэг следует знать свои права, поскольку дискриминация по возрасту при приеме на работу является незаконной. Ей также следует никогда не сдаваться и продолжать искать работу.)

Julie should talk to a friend, teacher or school counsellor. Sharing her problem can help, and she shouldn't have to deal with it alone.

(Джули следует поговорить с другом, учителем или школьным психологом. Если она поделится своей проблемой, это может помочь, и ей не придется справляться с этим в одиночку.)
