Analysis Of Prejudice: Still The Number One Barrier By Ann M. Morrison

I do agree with Ann M. Morrison assumptions. Many times people of different races are pre-judged because of their skin color. On page 235 Morrison's chapter was named prejudice: Still the Number One Barrier. I can agree with this as well in the chapter she spoke of how more than 12 percent of managers' responses described how the perception of difference as weaknesses limited advancement opportunities for white women and people of color. I believe this to be true simply because some managers and people of status look down on others different from them. They think if someone looks different that they aren't able to work and do the job which is incorrect. On pg 238 Poor Working Environment stuck out to me and is something I have experience.
I used to work for a franchise. Everyone that was employed there was all the same race. I was the only person employed that was African American. I was singled out and I felt singled out, lonely, and felt as if I was attacked a majority of the time. I was outnumbered and I understood that. It was hard working somewhere knowing that I was different and singled out. I consider myself being able to be in all types of situations, and places when many different groups of people. Diversity is something I am a strong adovcate for. I agree, with Morrison when she said that diversity is necessary My own personal experiences and examples that she used in this chapter are why I believe her assumptions to be true and I agree.
