A lot of people are denied opportunities juat because of where they come from or because they belong to a certain ethnic group or tribe. Worse still, they are treated badly just because of their ethnicity.
I want to find out if anyone has experience tribalism or bad treatment because of their ethnic and how they handled it
Have you ever suffered any form of discrimination because of your ethnic group? What was it and how did you handle it?

I’ve not experienced it but I know of a person who did.
Personally I think politicians use tribalism to gain a competitive edge over their competitors. Especially people who belong to large tribes. Because when we go to school we don’t care about the tribe of the person seated next to us. Same to when we enter a bus or when we go searching for a house. We don’t care about organizing ourselves into groups.
It’s only when we want to vote that people start thinking of this thing. And maybe during that period some people suffer because of the same. I feel like we can do better when it comes to this and also embrace modern practices such as intermarriages & living in different places of the country. To some extent it might help.

I haven’t experienced such and id also like to know peoples experiences….I think people who practice this sort of discrimination are more of led to it by ignorance.
