A Latino Reporting Discrimination?
So you, as a USA born Latino thinking yourself 100% a USA citizen for having been in the USA all your life and having been born as a USA citizen, go to a medical clinic, notice that you are being seriously discriminated, report it, and expect to be treated fairly? Of course you do! After all, why else would you so trustingly report the incident?
But what really are the chances that your report will actually change the situation? Well, unfortunately, yes it might change the situation. Reporting it might make it much worse. Why? Very simple, because very often, the people receiving the report do not always abide by organizational rules. Why exactly? There can be many reasons. Doing MAGA is one. They might perceive you as a wetback who recently swam the Rio Grande crossing the border illegally in order to get into their beloved country. Treating you fairly will encourage others to cross the border illegally. So they feel that they must discourage that by treating you in the nastiest way possible.
So as an invader, they might feel that you don't deserve the benefits of the policies that protect other patients. Furthermore, some might believe that you are depriving their own ethnic or racial group of benefits that really belong to them and that providing you with the assistance that they provide everyone else, is tantamount to cutting their own throats, and identifying themselves as being lousy Americans or traitors. So they proceed to treat you in a manner consistent with their notion of what a good American should be doing when dealing with any person of your ilk and will find many a creative way to make things even worse for you.
This phenomenon becomes especially devastating if the bigoted racist, person receiving the report is in a key supervisory position in which she can poison the mind of all her subordinates against you. This includes the Medical Assistants, clerks and even the doctors themselves who might hold her same view, or else tend to blindly trust that she is telling the truth, and will be extremely disinclined to treat you with the same respect that they feel everyone else deserves.
In view of this, does it really pay to proceed decently and report it when some emotionally unstable physician expresses, serious psychological hang-ups disrespects you in some serious way? To refrain from responding as the person really deserves? Apparently it doesn't.
In short, going to the medical clinic's higher authorities might might motivate the entire staff to descend on you as a consequence regardless of the noble officially-pronounced policies of the institution in question, policies which they very easily disregard when deemed convenient.
