Personal Reflection #3 - Stereotyping & Bias


Stereotyping, Prejudice & Discrimination

 

 

In this essay, I am going to write about stereotyping, prejudice and discrimination and give some example from my own experience. First, lets talk about stereotyping, It is usually start with the word all and actually it is based on few, like All Muslims are terrorist, which was an act of a few group, also we can say all white American are racists, the Mexican in the United State illegal and the young people are not irresponsible about the life or every thing in the life. The second is I ma going to write about the prejudice which is when people judging others before knowing them, example, when someone said to be dumb or lazy because of his overweight, while the fact might be something else like some medical issues, the 2nd example is when human when someone said to be dumb or lazy because of his overweight, while the fact might be something else like some medical issues, the 3rd example about prejudice we can say when the women are bad drivers is another prejudiced thought. So its important to avoid prejudiced ideas and know the fact before judging on someone or something. In my last paragraph I am going to write some example about discrimination is what was happening in the 1965s in the United Stated, the first example, segregation of white people and black people, also the job position and salary of men is more than women for the same job, because of the prejudiced idea that men work more than women, which is not right at all, the last example about the discrimination when two person applied for a job one is Kate and the other is Anita, most properly Kate will be picked because Anita is African. So usually discrimination is a wrong action that is based on a wrong prejudiced idea. My personal prejudice experience in my life, which is I am going to write it
