Jesus Colon
After making his decision, Jesus Colon wrote with regret,
“This is what racism and prejudice … and official artificial divisions can do to people and to a nation!”
What did he mean? How do beliefs about differences in our society shape the way we see ourselves and others?
How do they shape the way others see us?

An Important Word: Prejudice
CORNELL NOTES
Left Column: Prejudice
Right Column: comes from the word pre-judge.
We pre-judge when we have an opinion about a person solely because of a group to which that individual belongs. A prejudice has the following characteristics:
Prejudice: is based on real or imagined differences between groups.
Prejudice: attaches value to those differences in ways that falsely assume that one’s own group is superior to others.
Prejudice is generalized to include all members of a target group.
Not all prejudices result in discrimination. Discrimination occurs when prejudices are translated into action.

Who is Jane Elliott?
CORNELL NOTES
