It's challenging to quantify the exact number of people in America who have experienced discrimination, as it can manifest in various forms—such as racial, gender, age, or disability discrimination—and often goes unreported. Surveys and studies indicate that millions of Americans face discrimination in various contexts, including employment, housing, and education. For example, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission receives hundreds of thousands of discrimination claims annually. Overall, while specific numbers may vary, discrimination remains a significant issue affecting a substantial portion of the population.
