[INTRO MUSIC]
>> FARA: Oh, hi, Daniel. You don't look very happy. We've got a game to play, haven't we?
>> DANIEL: I'm not so sure. I'm worried I won't be asked to join in. Jessop just posted a message, they only ever pick players whoever has the trainers that he likes to play in his team. I mean, I don't dress anything like him. This was supposed to be a friendly match in a park. It doesn't feel like this anymore.
>> FARA: But you're the best forward I've seen in ages, Daniel. Of course, you should be included on the team. That's discrimination. Jessop is pre judging with no good reason.
>> DANIEL: I've heard of discrimination. It's when someone is treated differently or unfairly, isn't it? Maybe because where they come from or the age,
maybe disability.
>> FARA: Yeah. It can happen to anyone. Some people might try and stop me from doing certain things
just because I'm a girl. How silly is that? Anyone could experience discrimination, you know, and in lots of different ways.
>> DANIEL: In what ways have you experienced or noticed discrimination?
>> GIRL 2: I have seen examples of discrimination and it makes me angry because everybody deserves a chance to be included in what they love and they deserve to have a chance to go as far as possible.
>> BOY 1: Actually I have seen people be left out and, you know, it made me quite upset for them and curious why they're left out and, you know, I just... It makes me worry about how it's hurting them.
>> BOY 2: I feel very sad because no matter what if you're disabled, or you have a different skin type... or you're different to someone else, everyone should be treated the same.
>> DANIEL: You're right. Discrimination happens to all sorts of people. But it's always wrong because it always hurts. Let's hear what these people from the world of Premier League Football have to say.
>> ISMAEL: Discrimination upsets me when I see in any of its form. I think discrimination comes from ignorance, misunderstanding. When you see young people discriminate, it's usually lack of education, or sometimes peer pressure, or it maybe even the family members that cause them to be, to act in that particular way.
>> TIM: I would say discrimination is being prejudice against a certain group. So if someone's leaving someone out in the playground at school maybe something like that.
>> SIAN: Discrimination can be a real broad thing. It could be because they're not in a friendship group, or they're not wearing the right trainers, or they're not from the right estates.
>> MICHAEL: Sometimes it's about not necessarily having the best equipment or not necessarily having the most money. And that doesn't make you a lesser person or a better person. It's all about how you act as yourself, and how your family act, and how you're friends act, and you are true to yourself and to your family.
>> DANIEL: In my old school, I used to get left out a lot, just because I'm not from around here. It made me feel really awful. But I feel much more included in our school now.
>> FARA: Wow, that's really bad. People shouldn't behave like that. We should all get along regardless of what we look like, where we're from, or anything else. That's called inclusion and it's really important.
>> GIRL 2: Inclusion is important to me 'cause we need different types of people in the world in order to make things work. Everybody's got an unique quality to add, so we need everybody.
>> SIAN: Asking others for support is a real big strategy to help deal with any confrontation or any discrimination.
>> ROB: Sometimes people discriminate, without necessarily knowing they are discriminating. So I think to understand the other person's history and background in their perspective as well because it might not be intentional.
>> ANTHONY: The most important message to think about discrimination is that everybody should be treated exactly the same. So it doesn't matter where they come from, who they are, what they do, it's important that everybody is treated exactly the same.
>> FARA: So there's no reason why we shouldn't be invited to play in today's friendly in the park if we want to. Come on, let's go and join in together. Jessop is the one who wouldn't look smart if he doesn't choose a player like you.
>> DANIEL: Thanks. You've really cheered me up. Let's go and enjoy ourselves.
