Causes and Effects of Prejudice...

A prejudice is a prejudgment. It can an assumption made about someone or something before having adequate knowledge to be able to do so with guaranteed accuracy. The word prejudice is most commonly used to refer to a preconceived judgment toward a people or a person because of race, social class, gender, ethnicity, age, disability, political beliefs, religion, sexual orientation or other personal characteristics. It also means beliefs without knowledge of the facts and may include "any unreasonable attitude that is unusually resistant to rational influence." There are alot of people who are prejudice towards other. It is wrong to do this. They should never judge a book by its cover. If a person judges others they are just harming themselves. You cannot assume how a person is with out knowing them. Once you get to know a person fully you will have a different mind set. The best thing to do is to first get to know the person then you can see how they really are. You will not know until you give it a try.
