Prejudice: Know & What

I know the definition of prejudice is the unfavorable opinion of a person. Prejudice has many causes and bring prejudiced against another person would mean that the victim will receive disadvantages and thus leading to severe consequences.

There are many reasons why one is prejudiced against another:
1.) Racism
2.) Family Backgrounds
3.) Status in Society
4.) Personality (Self-Centred)
5.) Disabilities
6.) IQ (Story: Flowers for Algernon)
7.) Gender
8.) Religion

Disadvantages Received by Victims:
1.) Bullied
2.) Looked Down At by Others
3.) Ostracism
4.) Removed Privileges
5.) Loss of Pride

I feel that prejudice is a form of disrespect to another person because people should be treated equally in this world and not be separated because of racism, being the largest cause. Not only do the victims lose their pride, but they are also ostracized by the society.

Prejudice, due to the fact that people are biased to a particular person, means it is a form of disrespect. However, there is more because most of the times, victims are wrongly accused of the reason why they are prejudiced. Many people do not confirm the facts first even before starting to be biased towards the victim.

This theme is seen in "To Kill a Mocking Bird", where people are differentiated by black and white. White people look down on blacks, and call them names, thus leading to many believing the white people but not the black people.

What I would like to know more about prejudice would actually be the steps taken by the victims after being ostracized, I would like to know how they try to prevent oneself from being a victim of prejudice and how he/she can reclaim her lost pride and confidence to be part of the society.

Also, I would like to know what steps they take to be prejudiced against others besides bullying and why they have a straightforward mindset instead of confirming the facts first. Lastly, I would like to find out real-life examples in the current modern world of prejudice, whether in politics or countries.
