To discriminate means to make choices based upon categories. If you like to eat small eggs but not large eggs, you discriminate in your egg consumption. That, of course, is a harmless example. If, however, you like to hire people of European descent and not people of African descent, that is a harmful form of discrimination, since it is unfair to qualified applicants who do not meet your ethnic criterion.
