Discrimination may sound like this:
“Installing a ramp is expensive and would ruin the appearance of the building.”
“I don’t accept vouchers.”
“I don’t have to make that repair; undocumented tenants don’t have the same rights as other tenants.”
“They told me the apartment was available, but then when they saw I was black, they changed their mind.”
