Sometimes people make prejudiced comments in our presence. We are often not in a position to do anything about this because it is difficult to say something right then and there. Divide the class into groups and each group discuss what they could do in one of the following situations:
a. A friend begins to tease a classmate because he is poor.
b. You are watching TV with your family and one of them makes a prejudicial comment about a particular religious community.
c. Children in your class refuse to share their food with a particular person because they think she is dirty.
d. Someone tells you a joke that makes fun of a community because of their accent.
e. Some boys make remarks about girls not being able to play games as well as them. Discuss in class what the different groups have suggested for the above situations, and also talk about the problems that can come up when raising the issue.
(a) When a friend begin to tease a classmate because of his poorty then I will ask him/ her not to tease him. And, I will try to make my friend understand that every person is equal and we should not discriminate anyone or create any type of issue about their poorty. Instead of teasing him, we should help him and treat him equally like others. I will support the classmate and try to explain my friend that he/ she should support him, help him in studies and to encourage him. If he/she will tease him in any way then he will feel lack of confidence. I will make sure that from my words, no one get hurts neither my friend or nor my classmates. I would just try to make them understand that every person should be treated equally.
(b) If my family members make prejudicial comment about a particular religious community then I will stop them and will tell them that creating prejudice against any religion is insult of that religious community. Every religious community will only respect our religion when we will respect and support their religious community.
(c) If children of my class refuse to share their food with a particular person because of her dirtiness then, firstly I will share my food to her. And, then I will make them to say sorry to her and I will tell my classmates that no one is dirty. If someone is dirty, so that is you and your thinking.
(d) If someone makes fun of any community on the basis of their accent then, I will stop him/ her and tell them that every region has their own language and making fun of their language is equal to making fun of them and their region too. We should not make fun of any language and should always respect every language.
(e) If someone makes remarks that girls do not have capability to play with boys then I will make them understand that girls are not weak and can play with boys as well. And, I will ask them not to discriminate anyone on the basis of their gender. Everyone should have given equal rights and opportunities and the girls have equal rights to play with boys.
