It can be difficult to deal with discriminatory behavior from a neighbor, particularly when it is directed at you because of your race and gender. Your first step should be to document the instances of discrimination by writing down dates, times, and evidence of the offensive comments or actions. Then, calmly confront your neighbor about their behavior. Be sure to clearly explain why their remarks are inappropriate and offensive to you. In some cases, a simple conversation may resolve the issue but if the discriminatory behavior persists you may need to contact authorities for further assistance.

It can be distressing to experience discrimination or biased remarks based on your race or gender. In this situation, it is best to remain calm, thank your neighbor for their opinion and then clarify that their comments are making you feel uncomfortable and that you would prefer not to discuss the matter further. It is also important to realize that your neighbor may not be aware of the impact of their words, so an open discussion might help them understand why such language is inappropriate.
