    This document defines key vocabulary terms - discriminate, injustice, and oppression. It then provides two examples analyzing situations for the presence of these concepts. The first example describes a dark-skinned man in a store being treated with suspicion and unfairly by a sales clerk due to his appearance, demonstrating discrimination and injustice. The second example involves a customer complaining about a worker with Down syndrome being too slow, which constitutes discrimination but not oppression as no cruel actions were taken.
