You can just say something about it when you are discriminated against, because discrimination is not normal. But sometimes it’s hard to say something about it. They don’t understand you or think it’s not discrimination. Some people say discrimination is part of life and you have to accept it.

It may also be that you yourself prefer not to talk about it or ignore it. Or that you don’t do certain things because doing so risks discrimination.

If you are discriminated against, you can also file a complaint or report it to the police. There are organizations that can help you do this.
