Types of Discrimination:

 Global economies falter when issues such as gender based violence, sexual violence, forced labor, war crimes, child marriage,FGM, discrimination against race,  religion, ethnicity, culture, disability, sexual orientation, lifestyles, status, age, etc  -What will be done to address these public harms?

In reference to ChatGPT: “Discrimination can manifest in many forms, and individuals can face unfair treatment based on a variety of factors, including age, race, lifestyle, disability, culture, and social or economic status. Here's a breakdown of how discrimination can occur in these areas:

   1. Age Discrimination:

Older Adults: They may be stereotyped as "out of touch," resistant to change, or less capable of learning new skills, which can lead to job discrimination, being passed over for promotions, or being excluded from social opportunities.

Younger People: On the other end, younger individuals may be dismissed as inexperienced, immature, or not taken seriously, especially in professional or leadership contexts.

   2. Racial Discrimination:

Racial Profiling: People may be unfairly treated based on their race, facing harsher scrutiny by law enforcement or being overlooked in hiring processes.

 3.Cultural Stereotyping: Members of certain racial or ethnic groups may be subjected to biases, where they are assumed to have certain behaviors, attitudes, or skills based solely on their race.

Inequality in Opportunities: Systemic racism often results in unequal access to education, healthcare, and housing, perpetuating disadvantages for people of color.

    4. Lifestyle Discrimination:

Sexual Orientation: LGBTQ+ individuals often face discrimination in both personal and professional settings, such as job rejections, workplace harassment, or being denied access to healthcare.

Gender Identity: Transgender individuals might experience harassment, misgendering, or exclusion from certain spaces or services, as well as barriers in accessing medical care and legal recognition.

    5. Disability Discrimination:

Physical or Mental Disabilities: People with disabilities may face physical and societal barriers that make it harder to access public spaces, jobs, or education.They might be assumed to be less competent, regardless of their actual abilities.

Stigma and Misunderstanding: There are often misconceptions about people with disabilities, where they are seen as "inspirational" in a way that may feel patronizing, or where their needs are overlooked in society.

    6. Cultural Discrimination:

Language Barriers: People from different cultural backgrounds may face exclusion or bias because they speak a different language or have an accent. This can affect job opportunities, social integration, and even access to services.

Religious Discrimination: People may be discriminated against for practicing a particular religion, whether through exclusion, ridicule, or restrictions placed on their religious practices.

Cultural Norms: Discrimination can also stem from cultural differences in dress, behavior, or social practices, where individuals are judged negatively for not adhering to dominant cultural standards.

    7. Social or Economic Status Discrimination:

Classism: Individuals from lower socio-economic backgrounds may face prejudice based on their perceived "social class." They may be stereotyped as lazy, uneducated, or incapable, regardless of their circumstances.

Homelessness: People who are homeless may face significant discrimination, such as being refused service in businesses, stigmatized by society, or overlooked for employment opportunities.

Income Inequality: Those with lower income may face barriers to accessing healthcare, education, or even social acceptance, reinforcing a cycle of disadvantage.

    8. Discrimination Based on Immigration Status:

Undocumented Immigrants: These individuals often face the threat of deportation, limited access to services, and societal exclusion. They may also be subject to prejudice, stereotypes, and exploitation due to their vulnerable legal status.

     9.Status Discrimination in Professional Environments:

Employment Discrimination: People may be judged or treated unfairly based on their job status, such as being a temporary worker, part-time employee, or holding a lower-ranking position.

Education: Students from underprivileged backgrounds or those with less prestigious academic qualifications may face bias from their peers or teachers, limiting their educational opportunities and future prospects.

       

How Discrimination Affects People:

        Discrimination can have profound psychological, social, and economic effects on individuals. It can lead to feelings of isolation, lowered self-esteem, and stress, as well          

        as limit access to opportunities and resources, reinforcing cycles of inequality. Legal protections exist in many countries to combat discrimination (e.g., through anti-               

        discrimination laws, affirmative action policies), but challenges remain in addressing deeply ingrained societal biases.”

Testimony statements regarding libel, slander, perjury & Defamation


I remember when I was at schools and in some schools the kids would

bully with senseless stereotypes and name-calling  such as:

"Carrie, Damien,skinny,fat,slut,virgin,lesbian,gay,saint,robot,dumb,

and others" and when I went to the dean, director(s) they said it was

nonsense of jealous kids and they reprimanded them and called them

to the office. Even a girl who was interrupting class was taken out of

school for bullying. 

I helped teachers at the cafeteria by walking in cafeteria and making

sure the students were safe and organized. In another school I

saved the whole school when children were trying to make a

fire with matches in a room and closed the door. I ran and told the 

secretary how dangerous it can be and the secretary and I ran 

cautiously towards them -she tip-toed and caught them and scolded

them. Likewise, on 911 my father was on site to ensure safety of 

civilians & more.  

At schools I wore daily clippings adhered to my clothing of 

motivational sayings as part of my religious mission to

help people cope with all aspects of life conditions and I saw

so much cultural discrimination, harassment going around that

I also used diverse outfits from countries from 

Africa,Europe,Asia,Latin America, Middle East,etc. 

Persons in stores and on the street asked me if I was German,

Jewish,Irish,French, and many more countries which I replied

"I come from a wide cultural family and ancestry spanning from

every continent. We are all mixed!"

I received the Martin Luther King Jr. Award for helping races cope

with one another. The teachers and directors said I was so mature

for my age that they would kindly permit me to stay at the school

offices, help with office work, speak to parents, make speeches and

so forth.

The psychiatrist and psychologist found 100% credibility when they 

tested me of what I had done or passed through. They knew how bad 

people come with lies, witch-hunting, gas-lighting, suppression of 

women, gender bias and more. They knew that when they were 

uttering "McCarthyism"it was a falsehood to cover up their crimes. 

They told me to continue my studies and career in the performing arts, 

religion, politics. The prescription by the doctor due to 

not risking or putting in danger and safety my mother and I health was 

not to use t-shirts,shorts,hoodies,etc but our

choice of clothing, colors,designs,makeup,boots,accesories,etc

whether it be cultural, traditionally, hereditary status. 

School letters made me exempt from: participating in gym for health 

prevention since the broken systems were making me ill purposely, not 

using stairs, and other necessary accommodations. I went to the doctor 

and he said I had a healthy BMI for my normal height, age and weight.

Proper clothing of my choices prevented

me from staying ill at home and putting at risk my overall health.

While in school I was referred to as a "student teacher" and was

respectfully dressed and persons would greet me in the hallways

respectfully and call me miss and in public others would address

me as Madam and lady. 

The psychiatrist didn't believe their lies, broken systems, framework, 

she believed in my mission of doing good for humanity. 

Online clothing marketplaces are discounted for all types of

persons wear all types of styles. However, while purchasing

clothing, wigs,accesories,etc products might vary from actual product

featured because of "color variations, lighting, computer or phone 

screen monitor, the diverse personal perspectives of naming colors, 

etc." Even elderly retired church goers dress elegantly. Lifestyle

clothing vary from "Punk,Goth,emo,classic,country,vintage,

burlesque, cultural, religious and so forth."

Stay at home moms, influencers, persons that are unemployed or self-

employed since they are preventing health conditions, 

countless are well dressed regardless of their job or status in their 

communities. Even cancer victims and persons with other illnesses or

conditions dress nicely and wear makeup and wigs.

The pandemic rose the prices of food and crimes and made plenty

of businesses to close and persons called security to protect

their businesses, companies,restaurants,stores,nightclubs,

even kids to be escorted to school & on & on.

The pre-meditated broken systems of making us ill purposely caused a 

gap in our food purchases to take life away and interrupt the family

proper conduct with framing through internet eavesdropping. 

I am a law-abiding person with a clean record. 

I am a gun owner and the agents we hired ranged from active NYPD,

retired NYPD, undercover detectives, former military, Sergeants, and

so forth. My mother and I do not use public transportation due to

health and safety. 

Despite stereotypes I do not have any disabilities nor mental problems.

I believe in our American freedoms and values.

 I was born at birth a female and still am. I am a grown woman both

physically, emotionally and mentally. I advocate for human, animal,

cosmic worlds' causes and among these others. Cultural norms vary

such as what is considered illegal, offensive, bizarre in other countries,

regions is normal for others. Example: polygamy, polyandry,

child marriage, adultery, having multitudes of children because

not using contraceptives, machismo, women and human rights, 

etc. 

There exists competition to excel such as Guinness World 

Records, superhumans,Miss World,Miss USA, bodybuilding 

competition for both men and women, academic and sports

competition, and many more. I am grateful that because of

good professors and teachers I could also excel with honors

and I was a fast, responsible and efficient student. 

My family background varies and we are not poor and never

have gone bankrupt. My great grandfather was wealthy

since he was a land  owner with a lot of businesses, he dressed

well and distributed his land to his children, grandchildren

and our family. 

An attorney told me that if something is not directly written or

notified in writing -then, rumors of a made-up case are void.

It is spreading false information, libel, slander, 

perjury,misinformation.

My mother and I cannot participate in any supposed programs,

services, camping that would put at risk our safety and health.

There will not be false medical psychiatric misdiagnosis

with the intention to injure, disable, put at risk, extract organs

dna,& so on from a person illegally. All these years my family, 

ancestors, and I have participated in performing arts 

- art and color, music therapy have existed from the earliest 

beginning of humanity. Online freedom is the freedom to post 

and share online without concern of retribution when no crimes 

were committed. I post in tandem for collaboration but that does

not mean that I can never share links that have certain colors

on them such as UN Global Goals or share my own links

or  public relations. All these years my family have lived

in peace and we are not a threat to no one. 

Associating an innocent person or persons with

a false crime is false accusations. We cannot wear

only "black & white" since it endangers our health and well-

being while in nature all colors are visible. There are no fashion

police in America. 

Human rights organizations, Citizens Commission on Human 

Rights CCHR, criminal, international,civil rights attorneys,

investigative journalists, the Department of Health,

investigative watchdogs, anti-corruption organizations,

anti-defamation and cultural anti-discrimination organizations

our private medical forensic and much more will be involved

in the investigation of these matters. 

Hate crime is a crime and resistance is a human right when

resisting injustices of the oppressors who want to

suppress American freedoms and values.

Taking the power of the office when it is personal is illegal and

targeting  and harassing individuals is discrimination.


Update:

American government is defined as a Federal Democratic Republic. USA is renowned for its freedoms and advocacy towards human rights. Its Bill of Rights protects for instance First Amendment. Similarly, The Universal Human Rights Article 19, freedom of expression. "Federal laws prohibit discrimination based on a person's national originracecolorreligiondisabilitysex, and familial status."

Part of being a "Creative" of the creatives is artistic expression and branding. Performing arts can be as a hobby, career and ongoing project. 

As stated in general media: Persons who want to falsely accuse citizens or others with false medical misdiagnosis and false accusations in order to put them into false imprisonment, camps, housing for them to work for them as forced laborers and those who cannot work are extracted of their organs, used for experiments such as for DNA, cloning, inventing hybrids, monsters, birthing novelties that go against ethical practice -all these are crimes against humanity  and robbing people of their human dignity and bodily autonomy. Then those who want to restrict freedoms for example illegally putting a price for living for life itself. For posting in social media: "website links, retweeting, liking, sharing, posting GIFS, emojis, for pictures,shapes, colors,life itself -it is illogical and not based on reality and it is with malicious intentions for persons to profit out of human suffering. When in partnership sharing on social media acknowledges collaboration and being a public figure - even informed citizens are up to date on news. Social media is being sociable in a local, national and global community from all walks of life. 

It is detrimental when foreign countries try to  influence badly our kind of US government: Federal Democratic Republic with evil fabricated lies, that is why true patriots even those that are naturalized or resident with no maliciousness are protecting our country not traitors. US history built on freedoms,Preamble,The Declaration of Independence,Bill of Rights,The Constitution of the USA.

Will update more on this testimony...

Polka Dot Day(s) (Testimony)

 

In order not to repeat myself in further writings in reference to fashion: colors, patterns,graphics are here,there and everywhere throughout the world and beyond that is made up of them. Cultural fusion and globalization has created greater affordable markets for the whole world to purchase items and benefit spiritually,physically,mentally and emotionally. There is globally a very long history of polka dot fashion and persons from all walks of life and cultures wear them. The dots represents countless of meanings depending  on interpretations such as dots are existence, infinity, holes, the Sun, Moon,the beginning of life and so forth. In Medieval Europe it is said that dots were associated with the plague and illness in view that sick persons had dots on their skin.Polka dots are all around and come in diverse colors and sizes -thus, here is a brief list where dots are found : cartoon characters, clowns, in kids’ and babies’ fashion and accessories,businessmen and businesswomen fashion, Polka Dance and songs suchas “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, Polka-dotted animals,insects,nature patterns,astronomy, polka dot party supplies, polka dot games,in vehicle wraps, countries’ flags with dots (circles), architecture, words with dots or polka dots in them, stores,shops and so on with name polka dot, furniture, home decor,sculptures,art,art therapy, 3D, in ancient history persons culturally painted themselves in dots and in several African male initiation rites they painted dots on their skin. 


Dots are used in Braille alphabet and are placed in locations for the disabled to know directions -similarly, tactile paving have usually raised dots to assist the disabled when crossing the streets.

In East Austin Texas colored dots were painted on the intersections to help relax traffic,visibility and for a joyously pleasing ambient. In Math dots are used in scatterplots to show value, in solving math patterns,number sequences, as part of the UN Global Sustainable Goals the source of the World Health Organization uses dots to “represent  air quality across the globe.” 


Apple and Microsoft have many dot games for adults or children available that help develop reasoning skills and other abilities.Apple’s Concentric Polka Dots generator in Motion shows repeating patterns. Both Microsoft and Apple have polka dot wallpapers design for products, iPhone has a black dot called A LiDar  Scanner and other little colored dots (generally orange,yellow,green,blue) for diverse functions to be aware of.Various articles mentioned dots in the sky or aliens but it was Starlink 

satellites sent by SpaceX (starlink dots). 


Therefore, dots achieve a kind of unity even though there might be varied misunderstandings as to their meanings. Records of peace can be encountered

in time because of dots and the most important thing is that everyone gets the

opportunity to discuss dots and how dots are finding solutions in Earth and yonder.

As populations speak about dots the truth circulates that dots are a piece of life’s

puzzles and reality.
