Ethnicity is a person's cultural self-image: his preferred identification with a group that shares "cultural artifacts" such as food, music, native dress, rituals, and family roles. Black is not a ethnicity [worldwide, Blacks share zero cultural artifacts], Italian American is an ethnicity.
Mexican American is an ethnicity, so is Cuban American, but they share a racial class: Hispanic.
Japanese American and Chinese American culture are very different, although both are in the Asian racial class.
One need not BE associated with the nation or region to self-identify with the culture. Many US Blacks pretend to be culturally "African" - as though a continent had one culture - even if they have never been to an African nation nor met anyone who had.
So, ethnic discrimination is to treat persons differently based on the national / tribal culture they self-identify with. Some ethnic discrimination is illegal, some is mandatory.

The most common type of discrimination is often based on race or ethnicity, followed by discrimination based on gender, sexual orientation, and age. Discrimination can manifest in various forms such as unequal treatment, harassment, or exclusion based on these characteristics.
No, racism refers to prejudice or discrimination based on a person's race or ethnicity. Religion is a separate social identity that can also be the basis of discrimination or prejudice, known as religious discrimination. While both racism and religious discrimination are forms of bias, they are distinct concepts.
There may be some individuals who make the argument that racial and ethnic discrimination are more important than gender discrimination because the disparities between the minority classes and the "discriminator" class are more pronounced than the gender differences, but this strikes me as a silly argument. Racial and ethnic discrimination, although more disparate, is less entrenched than gender discrimination, especially as concerns men who join traditionally female gender positions. The idea that a Black person could become a successful lawyer or doctor does not seem as "ridiculous" as an educated WASP man choosing to be a house-husband.
The Mexican, unless you really meant "ethnicity" in that case it's very mixed.
Racism is the act of discrimination against people of different ethnicity, race, religion, etc. but most commonly used for race.
It is harmful to stereotype people based on their race or ethnicity, as it perpetuates unfair and inaccurate generalizations that can lead to discrimination and prejudice.
Ethnic discrimination is racist. Ethnicity is just a more precise concept for what is sometimes called race. Strictly speaking, all human beings belong to the human race, and there is only one human race, but there are many ethnicities.
Avoiding inadvertent discrimination in the care setting means choosing your words carefully regarding the individual. Avoiding this type of discrimination requires careful attention to every patient interaction. One should never reference race, ethnicity, or religion with a client.
Unequal treatment among ethnic groups is called discrimination. This can manifest in various forms, such as unequal access to opportunities, resources, or services based on a person's ethnicity. Discrimination is often rooted in prejudice and can have harmful effects on individuals and communities.
In the poem "A Stone's Throw," discrimination is expressed through the depiction of racial segregation and prejudice. The act of throwing stones at the protagonist symbolizes the hatred and ostracization that individuals face due to their race or ethnicity. The poem highlights the destructive impact of discrimination on individuals and communities.
Race refers to physical characteristics such as skin color, while ethnicity refers to cultural factors like language and traditions. Both race and ethnicity can influence a person's identity by shaping their sense of belonging, cultural practices, and experiences of discrimination or privilege.
