Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Non-prejudiced people may still have emotional responses to members of other ethnic groups, but they are typically not based on stereotypes or discriminatory attitudes. Giving up prejudice involves ongoing efforts to recognize and challenge biases and stereotypes that may still be present, and actively choosing to treat all individuals with respect and fairness. It is not a quick or easy process, and requires ongoing self-reflection and learning. The other options are not true, as giving up prejudice does not guarantee the immediate elimination of prejudiced thoughts and feelings, nor does it necessarily lead to the loss of early learned stereotypes, and breaking the habit of prejudice requires significant effort and commitment.
