STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAY!X>RD 1 by JOSEPH COOLS staf f psychologist from th« Family Service and Mental Health Clinic of McHenry County (Editor's note: This is another in a series of especially written articles for McHenry county readers. Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family Service and Community Mental Health center staff. This article is "Coping - Discrimination ") If you happen to be black, Spanish, female, Catholic, Jewish, Oriental, or any number of other "minority" groups, you have undoubtedly experienced some form of discrimination or prejudice. In spite of civil rights movements and recent legislation designed to eliminate discrimination, at­ titudes cannot be legislated, and rights movements may even serve to further irritate those whose attitudes are causing the problem. Instead of alleviating the cause of the discriminatory practice, legislation and civil rights may serve to entrench prejudicial attitudes even more firmly. Sources of bigotry and prejudice are strikingly evident in even small children. One has only to witness a group of children teasing or hitting another child siipply because there is an obvious difference in size, physical ability .or"color. Most children have a rather basic need to have a group identity, to be the same as* the other children at any cost, for to be different is to be excluded from the group. The effects of prejudice can readily be seen in the victim of the group rejection. The child feels completely worthless and tends to become isolated, hostile and depressed. Also striking is the fact that group prejudice by children to the "different" child can be eradicated immediately and completely if the entire group is confronted with their actions and the effect they have on the ostracized child. It would seem that the same principles hold in adult bigotry. The best way of dealing with discrimination is education. The education method that works best is to get the person to look at what it feels like when he is being discriminated against: to imagine what it would be like to be excluded from a neighborhood; to be given a second rate job; to be made the butt of a joke; to be beaten up on a playground.
