Prejudice, Discrimination, Stereotype, Biasness

Hi readers!

I will be explaning the differences between the four words mentioned above.
Stereotypes are formed when a person notices another person is a small group of people who has a quality ( positive/negative ) and assumes that the rest is like him.

This will lead to the person being bias. When a person has stereotypes of two different groups, one better than another, he will be bias against one group, and towards the other.

When the person is bias against a group, prejudice takes place. He would try to avoid them and spread rumours about them to other people.

Discrimination takes place when a person directly offends another whom he was prejudiced against.

Thats the differences between the four words.
