Simple: Freedom and equal rights.

Since some portion of humans in planet RWBY are essentially anti-Faunus, they don't get the respect they deserve. From that, comes rebellion. The first step was the Faunus War, which gave the Faunus the right to live anywhere they want. But they're still opressed. So came White Fang.

You can chalk up the human's hate for the Faunus as the fear of the different. It's just plain weird to those who live in Remnant when a human has animal ears or tails. So from fear stems hate. And thus, Faunus opression.

Dark already gave an example with the Native Americans and African-Americans as real life examples of such.
