It could be argued that most of the characters in Of Mice and Men are discriminated against, but the three main characters are Candy, Crooks and Curley's Wife.
Candy is discriminated against because he is disabled, he is old and vulnerable. His vulnerability make him an easy target for the other men to pick on him.
Crooks is discriminated against due to his colour of his skin. This is shown through his segregation from the bunkhouse and having to sleep in the harness room. Further evidence of the men discriminating against him are the derogatory terms they label him with, such as 'Negro', 'Stable Buck'.
Curley's Wife is discriminated against due to her gender. She is the only woman on the ranch and her husband (Curley) does not show her affection, and the only time we ever see them together is upon her death. She dresses provocatively to engage the men in flirting with her, although it is clear she does not always appreciate the attention she is given. Like Crooks, she is referred to by the use of derogatory language, such as 'Jail bait', 'Tramp'.
Due to the discrimination they experience, it is probably no surprise that they are the lowest in the hierarchy on the ranch.
In "Of Mice and Men," discriminatory comments are made against the character Lennie due to his intellectual disabilities. He is often referred to as "dumb" and "crazy," reinforcing negative stereotypes about people with disabilities. Additionally, the character Crooks faces discrimination due to his race, being called derogatory names and being excluded from social activities.
Curley's wife says to Crooks 'Listen ni*ger.You know what i can do if you open your trap?'
'well keep your place then , ni*ger. I could get you strung up on a tree so easy it aint even funny'
meaning that she could hang Crooks if he tried to offend her suggesting that she is superior to Crooks because he is black. She discriminates him because of his skin colour
