ABSTRACT

This seminar will explore the experiences of discrimination as reported by Brisbane-based LGBTIQ and Muslim participants during semi-structured interviews. Data was classified in order to develop a taxonomy of discrimination that foregrounded two types: verbal and behavioural. In this seminar the speakers will exemplify these types and offer a comparative analysis of the main active and passive coping strategies used in the construction of the experiences from a discourse analytical perspective.

The results show that discrimination is an overt phenomenon and that participants are stressed by the ever-present possibility of facing it. FIndings of this study will also be discussed in the light of social identity theory and in particular the rejection-identification model (Branscombe et al, 1999), which explains an often-employed strategy whereby the stigmatised individual strengthens their ties with their minority group as a psychological strategy to improve their self-esteem.
