Discrimination is one of the barriers when it comes to implementing justice measures for human rights. It has various effects that it comes along with. The bad thing with these effects that arise from discrimination is that discrimination becomes a violation to human rights.
All the things that associate with discrimination are by themselves inhuman. Some come from individuals and some are from organizations. It is also possible to find a whole institution working against a specific group of people. Discrimination has more effects than good.
The effects of discrimination are adverse and affect even the justice system. the human rights organizations become less effective when there is too much discrimination.
Discrimination brings about fear
Discrimination is the source of fear especially for people who have undergone it. The chances are that they will have fear to seek the justice even when they have undergone so much injustice. Most people will also fear the incidences that brought about the cases of injustice.
Protecting personal and other people rights becomes a challenge that may also be very tough to observe. The reason is that people will fear to undergo the kind of discrimination that comes along with the manipulation of their rights.
There are forms of human violence that also bring about fear. One possible thing that most people are likely to have tough times with is the inhuman acts that result to shame. People who get sodomized or raped tend to have fear especially when the people discriminate them.
Poor service delivery
Service delivery becomes poor in areas that have discrimination. A good example is when the people operating in a specific office have a view against the people who have undergone inhuman acts. Such include the LGBTQ and the other less fortunate people in our societies.
As they try to seek for justice, they end up losing it because the system they have to manage through is discriminative. It is also very challenging for the people to deliver services in a situation that they know the end result will not be fair.
Organizations that defend human rights may have staff who at times undergo discrimination. Such people are likely to deliver poor services to the people they serve. They get afraid when other people regard them as supporters of people who don’t deserve to be in those communities.
Barriers to communication
Discrimination has a direct contribution to the barriers of communication. This happens especially when people have an attitude to a specific group of people. You can imagine someone going to seek justice in a place that his group of association undergoes discrimination.
When these people try to express themselves, the persons who are supposed to listen to them choose to ignore them. The chances of unfairness also increase with the process of seeking justice. Some do not get understood even at the courts hence making the process less effective because of the communication barrier.
Feeling of inferiority
A discriminated person feels inferior. They tend to feel less which also makes them less effective. Having such a feeling makes them live below their standards. You will also notice that people who feel less have a weaker system to stand for what is rightly theirs.
There are also very high chances that the discriminated persons will undergo violation of their rights even more. The violators have an idea that even when these people try to seek for justice, they will not make it.
They therefore end up causing more harm to the affected persons. They become victim of circumstances. This is the reason why we hear one person has undergone gang raping several times.
Lack of balance in resources
Discrimination brings about imbalance in the allocation of resources. People who live inn specific areas are termed as those that do not deserve and do not get the services they need. Their rights end up getting more violated in all areas are very high. Most people will get a chance to manipulate them hence lowering their allocation.
In some instances, the organizations that are responsible for the disbursement of the funds choose to leave some areas out. The areas that are left behind are those that they feel do not deserve the allocations.
As a result, you will have the specific areas having problems with observing human rights. Others will perform so well but these areas have no adequate allocation. The efforts to have solutions and justice end becoming useless.
Oppression of the less fortunate
Part of discrimination is oppression of the less fortunate. The major challenge is that the persons affected end up getting challenging moments. The surprising thing is that they end up becoming the victims of other challenges.
Moreover, there are people who get discriminated from the justice system because they do not have adequate money to push their cases through. Some of the justice staff need some bribes to have the cases working.
In case they do not get anything from the people who cannot afford, they end up discriminating them. In the fight of their rights, they lose even before the cases get to the hearing stages.
Increased violation of human rights
In places that have a lot of discrimination, there are also increased rate of human rights violation. What happens is that people ignore the rights of other people because they know there is no one who will old them accountable.
They also know that whoever tries to hold them accountable must lose because there is discrimination that will work. Violation of rights especially in areas that experience war becomes a norm. carelessness becomes a routine as people know that they will discriminate whoever they are manipulating for their own good.
Delayed or no justice
Justice never comes when there is discrimination especially from those that are supposed to execute justice. One thing you are likely to encounter is that the delayed justice because of the slow process. Some people will deliberately delay the process so that they make some money from it.
One thing that turns out to be the biggest challenge is when the person who has violated the rights of another pers. On influences the system. it ends up becoming double tragedy because discrimination becomes injustice by itself. In fact, it is a violation against the human rights.
It is also possible that when the time people get justice under system of discrimination. By the time the system gets to a point or rewarding the person undergoing discrimination it is too late.
Conclusion
Discrimination has a lot of effects when it comes to fulfilment of human rights. Most discrimination issues never get justice. The effects are extreme because they compromise the justice system and the whole aspect of implementation of the observance of huma rights.
