SECTION 5



Difference Between
Racism, Prejudice,
and Stereotyping




The terms “racism,” “stereotyping,” and “prejudice” are often used interchangeably.
However, each of these words have entirely different meanings although they are all
somewhat related. All three of these terms involve the poor treatment of specific
groups or types of people. The term “racism” originated in the 1930s, and it referred
to the idea that certain types of people are determined by their genetic makeup.
Specific types of genetic makeup allow people to be further categorized into separate
“races.” Racism demonstrates the principle that certain races are more superior than
others, allowing certain individuals to perceive some groups of people as inferior to
them. Race scholars have defined racism as something that “creates or reproduces
structures of domination based on essentialist categories of race.” Therefore, when
individuals portray racism by using derogatory language, for example, they are
reproducing unfair hierarchies of racial categories.

Prejudice is related to the specific attitudes that an individual may have regarding
different groups of people. For example, a person could be prejudiced toward others
in a negative manner or in a positive manner. The most common connotation of prejudice
is negative, such as how an individual may have an incorrect and unjustified attitude
about another person based solely on their membership in a certain social group. In
this discussion, it can be understood as a negative attitude toward someone based on
their race. Although prejudice involves biased thoughts about certain groups of people,
it does not require that an individual act on them. In contrast, if one is acting on
their prejudice, it would be categorized as discrimination. Specifically, discrimination
involves actions or behaviors towards an individual based solely on their race, sex,
social class etc.

Breaking it down even further, stereotyping involves making simplified assumptions about
how specific groups of people will be. In terms of race, an example would be if an
individual believes that all Asian people are good at math. Although this may be considered
a “positive” stereotype, it is still an oversimplified assumption about an extremely large
group of people. Stereotypes are not always true, and they are often portray certain types
of people in a negative manner.

Prejudice,
Discrimination,
Bigotry and Racism




Prejudice is prejudgment or forming an opinion before becoming aware of
the relevant facts of a case.

Discrimination is action that denies social participation or human rights
to categories of people based on prejudice.

Bigotry is a state of mind where a person views other groups with fear,
distrust, prejudice or hatred solely on the basis of ethnicity, race,
religion, national origin, gender, disability, sexual orientation,
socioeconomic status, or other group characteristics. Racism consists
of both prejudice and discrimination based in social perceptions of
biological differences between people.

It’s important we understand what we are and aren’t in order to give these
issues the proper context they deserve. If we aren’t honest with what we are,
how can we begin to go where we need to?
