The word prejudice refers to a prejudgmental statement of ill doing, or an evaluation or decision made before the facts of a case could be properly determined and weighed. However, i do not agree that it is something that can never be eliminated. Although it is a notion deeply etched on the back of one's mind, it can slowly be eliminated due to cultural changes and changes in one's mindset. this may be due to personal experiences that may change the perception of someone towards the bias party. In most cases prejudism happens when there is social stereotypes whereby the affected ones would be minorty group. Judgements based on experience may, however, be coloured by prejudice. one example to talk about would be cases in america whereby the whites are prejudiced against the blacks. this is merely due to the differences in skin colour. It is often stereotyped that the blacks are the ones commiting most of the crimes in america wheres in reality, the whites are actually responsible for 97% of the crimes in america. the prejudism existing in america is actully slowly deteriorating now as compared to the past. this is mainly due to the literacy in people. education has made people more liberal and more willing to look things at a different angle. This slowly eliminates prejudism.
