Prejudice(part 2)

This is the mind map me and my Language Arts group member did.
To summarize the above information:
1)Prejudice is a noun.
2)Prejudice is usually formed at first impression. Example:Lazy, Naughty, Cunning, and others.
3)Prejudice should not be encouraged because we are all part of the human race so everyone should be fairly treated because it causes unnecessary conflicts.
4)A person that is prejudiced gives the person he is prejudices against worse treatment than other people.
5)One of the first novel about prejudice which is also recommended by teacher to read is Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
6) It is extremely unfair to people who have done nothing wrong but gets worse treatment to those who actually have done wrong but gets off scot-free.
7) Similar words to prejudice: Bias, unfairness, and discrimination(prejudice is a type of discrimination).
8)Causes: Different behaviors
                Outer appearance
                Knowledge and actions
                Past experiences
                Rank/Autority
                Inability to accept difference
                Misunderstanding or rumours
                Pass down from elders
                Unwillingness to compromise
                Wrong judgement
                Influences from others

That's all for prejudice.Hope that this will help you to understand "prejudice" better. =D
