Stereotype, Prejudice & Discrimation

This word has been in my mind for quite sometime, and it is a harsh word. The word itself doesn't really carry the meaning but maybe it is how the community molds it into the word itself.Stereotype and prejudice, it is. I somehow think that discrimination is where individuals would hate or even commits suicide for being a part of their community.

For example, the black community is seen as violent and aggressive. This is to an extent that the parents of an interracial marriage begs the higher authority to treat their child nicely so that the son will turn out to be a good person. ( as I was told by one of my lecturers). It crossed my mind of how hard the life of a stereotyped community must be. The word that kills , the judgement and stereotype people seem to utter that kills. Taking account to Muslims in a U.S community,due to the mass media that portrays Muslims as terrorists , some Muslims are treated badly for being who they are. Isn't it sad ?

To avoid confusion , Stereotype is our thoughts towards a certain label of a community. Kelantanese is abbasiyah for instance. Prejudice is our feelings towards the community , hating  or dislike a community for being in a community they're in. And discrimination, our actions towards a certain community or race. Somehow these words is related to racism. Discrimination especially, for example you push a Muslim for being a Muslim or as they so-called Muslims as terrorists.

Here's something to relate to about discrimination and prejudice.

My grandma's story

   This is in the case of stereotype and discrimination. My grand mother used to work in a Chinese company in her 30's. That's like 30 years ago. Chinese used to label Malaysians as lazy. There was one time that my to'ma was late for being late for work. The boss got really angry with her but he didn't scold the employees whom are Chinese of being late. See, the unfairness there? I think people should be treated equally regardless. Discrimination is clearly injustice.

Everyone is born equal
