The Existence Of Prejudice During The Holocaust

Prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience. Prejudice has existed for as long as mankind can remember, and sadly it's not going to subside. In the past, people have either witnessed or experienced prejudice. It can be traced back to when women were not granted the right to vote, based on the fact that they were women. On the other hand, prejudice occurred during the Holocaust, where prejudice was directed mainly towards Jews. Not only did prejudice take place in the past, but it still transpires today. Today, people assume someone is gay, based on the way they act. Prejudice is directed towards them. On the other hand, people assume that all tall people or all blacks are superior at basketball.
