To sign 'discrimination,' start by holding your non-dominant hand flat in front of you with the palm facing up. Form your dominant hand into a 'D' handshape, extending your index finger while your thumb touches your other fingers. Point your dominant index finger down toward your non-dominant palm and slide it across the surface.
To sign this, point to yourself for 'I,' use the sign for 'experience,' then sign 'discrimination,' and finish with the sign for 'work.'
Start by pointing to yourself and others for 'we,' sign 'must,' use the sign for 'fight' or 'against,' and end with 'discrimination.'
Begin with the sign for 'discrimination,' followed by the sign for 'illegal' (striking your 'L' hand against your flat non-dominant palm).

They are very similar in movement, but 'discrimination' is an initialized sign. It specifically uses the 'D' handshape on the dominant hand, whereas 'cancel' typically uses an 'X' or an index finger.
Generally, you slide the dominant 'D' hand across the palm towards yourself or in a crossing motion. The key is the clear contact and movement across the flat base hand.
While related, 'prejudice' often has its own sign, frequently signed near the head or eyes to indicate a preconceived view. This sign is best used specifically for 'discrimination' or the act of excluding.
