Ageism and Age Discrimination

Ageism is no different from sexism or racism, except in terms of awareness and sensitivity. Also, unlike being a member of a particular race, gender, religion, or nationality, all of us (if we live long enough) will feel the effects of having assumptions made about us based on how old we appear. We all express ageist attitudes since we were raised with them. This lecture will present the issue of ageism and how it impacts all of us, both in the present and the future. Age discrimination needs to be dealt with by all.
