So for this question you need to discuss your own culture identity and mention any bias attitudes you may have. I have provided explanations below to help get you started...

Cultural identifiers may be the result of various conditions including: location, gender, race, history, nationality, language, sexuality, religious beliefs, ethnicity, aesthetics, and even food.

Bias in Behaviours

Avoidance of certain people
Stereotyping - good or bad
Telling jokes based on stereotypes
Calling people names
Posting negative comments in social media
Insults based on stereotypes
Vandalizing others' religious decorations
Imitating someone with a disability
Calling women names such as chicks or broads
Joining exclusive clubs where certain people are not allowed
Telling someone that women wear dresses and men wear pants
Not serving someone is a restaurant or retail store because of their race
Not hiring someone because of their age or gender
Not accepting a bid on a house because of race or religion
Drawing pictures or cartoons that belittle someone because of their beliefs, gender expression or political affiliation

Hope this helps,
