Discrimination

In this clip from the Office Michael Scott, starts to choose his team for a game of basketball. His first pick is Stanley, the only African-American working in the office. Michel clearly has a stereotype of African-Americans being good basketball players, by committing the overt behavior of choosing Stanley, Michael is demonstrating discrimination. Which by definition is the overt behavior that follows a prejudicial attitude.
