Human Behavior
Discrimination
Discrimination is the unfair treatment of different groups of people. Race and ethnicity are major categories that are discussed in discrimination as well as religion and gender.
Nike Ad This new Ad made by Nike speaks volumes. It has some of the biggest sports stars in this age advocating for change. Black people, white people. woman, men, different religions, everything. It stands up to discrimination and reminds us that we are all equal and equality has no boundaries.
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character" - Martin Luther King Jr.---- This quote was said in Martin Luther King's famous "I have a dream" speech in 1963. This quote means that back then his kids would have been judged by the color of their sin instead of the content of their character but King advocated for it to be the other way around, with people disregarding and seeing past skin color, into what really matters in a person.

"If you believe that discrimination exists, it will." - Anthony J. D'Angelo--- This quote means that you can either stop discrimination or believe in it. You have the power to end it but if you think it exists, it will. Essentially, it is in our hands to determine the end of discrimination

Obedience
Obedience means to comply with commands. Many people are usually obedient to an authoritative figure in society or in their life situation. Obedience happens without much resistance or protest.
Unfortunately, Obedience has been displayed in past history in many poor ways. An example of this would be Nazi Germany and how the german people became obedient to nearly all of their orders. Many professionals believe that because the Nazi's had so much control and authority, the people would be obedient to them and follow their rules.
Obedience is present in our everyday lives. In school. at home, and at work. Saul Mcleod believes that in obedience, there is a higher power and a lesser power. If your teacher tells you to sit down, you sit down because you think if you do not sit down, something bad will happen to you. Here the teacher is the higher power and you the lower power. This proves that obedience ranging from Nazi Germany to a 2017 class at DHS is not very different, in the fact that there are both authoritative figures giving commands that are completed by the lesser power without any complaint.Pyschologists on obedience

Fear
Fear is an emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous and has the ability to cause pain
-
Fear is a major aspect of our life, especially for our nation. Any day could pose danger for our people and the good of our nation. Political mistakes, economic collapses, or terrorism. An event that scared the American people into fear was 9/11. After 9/11, our country changed drastically. We became much more aware and vigilant and took no chances with our national security. Although 9/11 was the worst terrorist attack in history and instilled a sense of fear throughout our nation, it made us stronger and helped us to prevent further attacks like that one.

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"- Franklin D. Roosevelt---This is one of the most famous quotes of all time which came in FDR's inaugural speech. This meant that the only thing that is making matters worse is fear. We must not fear because it does no good and only hurts us. Without fear, you can accomplish anything
Racism
-
A great example of racism would be the Jim Crow Laws in the 1900's America. Jim Crow Laws would segregate blacks from whites, mostly in the southern states. Whites would have more amenities and advantages over black people. Whites would be served first, have the right of way on roads, and sat in the front of the buses.
Unfortunately, Racism is still around today in our society. Some believe President Trump has said racist comments throughout his life. Some report that he called Mexicans "criminals" and "rapists" and he made comments about Mrs. Khan and how she did not speak next to her husband at the DNC. “If you look at his wife, she was standing there. She had nothing to say. She probably, maybe she wasn’t allowed to have anything to say. You tell me,”. It could be debated that these comments are racist and stereotypical, however the point is that even the highest ranking people in our society make these mistakes and comments.

Identity
Identity is the qualities, views, and beliefs that shape or define an individual or group.
Having a strong, well-respected Identity is essential to gaining trust from those around you. A good example of how having a good identity builds trust is Charles Manson. A man who had such a good identity to his followers that some even killed for him. He would set up the murders and have his followers do it for him. He was able to accomplish this by showing a certain identity to those that were attracted to the identity.

Stereotyping
A stereotype is a prejudged belief, about a certain group of people. Most stereotypes are extremely negative.
The most common stereotype is arguably gender profiling. Women cook, clean, and are neat while men do the dirty work, make the money, and are messy. This is a stereotype because it is an uneducated judgement made on a common group in society.
This picture displays the gender stereotype because it shows the man on the left in the color blue (also a generalized judgment people make... boys like blue girls like pink) doing things like making money, lifting weights, and playing video games. Then you have your women who has the fancy jewelry, high heels, and the first aid symbol.
A study conducted by The University of Toronto showed that the victims of stereotyping are negatively affected in various ways. They have less self-control, eat unhealthier foods, and can not make rational decisions. Stereotyping does not only make you feel bad in the moment, but also after you have been stereotyped.
