Answer:
The main form of discrimination in Of Mice and Men we see is discrimination against the mentally disabled. This is portrayed through Lennie's character as we see him getting treated different than others and misunderstood. We also see racial discrimination through Crooks, a black man. Sexism is also a prominent form of discrimination that we see through Candy's wife. We see discrimination against women even just through the way Candy's wife isn't given a name of her own, as if she's just an extension of her husband. Following back to the discrimination against mentally disabled, the outcome of the story is greatly impacted by this. In the end, George has to kill Lennie because Lennie doesn't understand his own strength, and accidentally kills Curley's wife.
