What are some examples of color discrimination?

Color discrimination is different from racial discrimination, even though many people confuse the two ideas.

When employees believe that there are consequences for their actions, they are less likely to commit acts of harassment. When they don't believe that there are consequences, they are more likely to commit them. In such cultures, those who engage in sexual harassment tend to be protected while accusers are the ones who are penalized.
