Prejudice can be regarded as the attitudes, feelings and thoughts held by a person for a group. The basis of prejudice is not experience. It happens to be a prejudgment which arises outside real experience (Schaefer, 2019). No prejudice was ever held by me against any races. I belong to a mixed family which consists of people from all kinds of races. Even during my childhood days, I became friends with children belonging to different races and grew up with them.
