Have you ever wondered why people discriminate against each other? Whether it&#8217;s occasional or regular, intentional or unintentional, spoken aloud or merely in our thoughts, people from different cultures have a tendency to single out others. Whether it&#8217;s a social bias or a so-called \u201charmless\u201dstereotypes, those who experience discrimination may easily feel hurt and marginalized. In this episode, we aim to discuss the topic of discrimination openly. We will hear personal stories from individuals with diverse cultures, backgrounds, native languages, skin colors, genders, and so on. Together, we will explore the reasons behind discrimination, and understand how people feel when they experience it, and most importantly, learn from the experiences of our interview partners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely sugar free<br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In our first story, \u201cabsolutely sugar free\u201d, we will hear from Jana, a German guest who has lived with her genetic diabetes since her childhood and has often faced discrimination because people think she got it because of eating too much sugar as a child<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely confronting<br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In our second story, \u201cabsolutely confronting\u201d,we will hear from Sandie, a lecturer from Australia.
