Discrimination by association refers to a form of discrimination where an individual faces prejudice or unfair treatment not because of their own characteristics, but due to their association with someone who possesses certain characteristics, such as race, gender, sexual orientation, or disability. This can occur in various contexts, including employment, housing, and social situations. For instance, a person may be discriminated against because they are friends or family members with someone from a marginalized group. Such discrimination highlights the broader societal implications of prejudice and the impact of social relationships on individual experiences.
