Story | A man enters a cantina and is being discriminated against. The man experiences the discrimination against him as a blow to the face. |

Problem | The key objectives for the campaign are to prevent people from being discriminated against in any way due to their racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation. |
