Answer:

1. Discrimination affects people's opportunities

2. If we don't what our identity is, then we cannot start living a life that is consistent with our true nature and values

Explaination:

1. Discrimination affects people's opportunities, their well-being, and their sense of agency. Persistent exposure to discrimination can lead individuals to internalize the prejudice or stigma that is directed against them, manifesting in shame, low self-esteem, fear and stress, as well as poor health.

2. If we don't what our identity is, then we cannot start living a life that is consistent with our true nature and values and we will only frustrate ourselves rather than be able to live in harmony with our identity and be able to live up to our true potential.
