The human race. Really, everybody is discriminated against for some reason or another. I think really it has little to do with race, and more to do with the perpetrator scapegoating negative emotions onto someone who is obviously different in some way. I think if people learn to love themselves, flaws and all, then they will love others.

Asians are discriminated against here in the U.S. I know this from personal experience, I have an adopted daughter that is Laotian. But I would say that the race that is the most discriminated against right now is anyone of Middle Eastern descent, Iraq, Iran, etc. Anywhere from any of the "hot" spots around the world.
Personally I think discrimination exists against all races of people. Some groups are just targeted more often or more severely than others. Either way, it's a horrible and sad thing! Those that do the discriminating must lead sad, horrid lives to be filled with so much hatred toward some one that they don't even know.

My wife is Asian and she is fine here. Asians are treated like dirt in Saudi Arabia and those other Mid East countries. Her aunt worked over there and feared for her life, they tried to make a slave out of her.
In our country I have to think that Euro White people are discriminated against the most. Racist hiring quotas keep many qualified whites from getting jobs despite having higher scores. There are also more black on white hate crimes as opposed to white on black hate crimes, the major media doesn't talk about that, another discrimination against whites, the media.

I don't know if you have traveled much, but go anywhere in the world and someone is being discriminated against. I lived in the Asian-Pacific rim and I saw pacific islanders discriminate against Filipinos. I have seen whites discriminated against in parts of Asia as well. So like I said, it all depends on where you go.

Right now? as we speak?
Muslims.
Why? 'cuz of what's going on lately. If you need to ask why muslims - my q. to you is where have you been? Living under the rock or somethin'?
Discrimination is bad - but the future is very bleak indeed for muslims. Many of those who can do business with them or give them jobs, so on and so forth - are very very angry at them. There will be a backlash. Too bad, the entire group of muslims are going to suffer because of the actions of a few.
I do not see this getting better for them in the immediate future.
Other than that, discrimination against others such as blacks, hispanics and jews will continue. But not nearly as much as for muslims.

i am asian and i think the races that are most discriminated are asians, blacks, and mexicans. in my opinion, blacks because they have a negative image in public. mexicans because there are too many and they are poor. asians because they are short and small......and smart. no it is not true, i never heard of any countries that discriminates only asians.

Islamic peoples.
Also, the natives of any country tend to be discriminated. Native Americans in the US, the Inuit in Canada, the Maoris in New Zealand, Australian aborigines, Igorots in the Philippines...

I think Middle Eastern and Hispanic people.
Why? Because many Middle Easterns are viewed as being Terrorists and many Hispanics are viewed as being illegal immigrants or criminals.
Whenever I go to Europe I'm always insanely jealous because Asians seemed to be really loved over there, especially by Italian guys.

One way to deal with discrimination would be non-validation of the perpetrator. Dismiss them and concentrate on being a productive member of society. Negativity has a way of cancelling itself out.
