Prejudice means to make a judgment before evidence, reflexively. Prejudice does not necessarily mean supporting segregation or racial subjugation, but can imply deep social feelings. Prejudice is usually negative, although I suppose we could have a prejudice towards assuming innocence in the absence of evidence. Pretend it is not so if you want, prejudice in some places, remains institutionalized.
Could this explain the whole sordid affair that took place in Standard one dreadful night when Trayvon Martin lost his life and one day when George Zimmerman won his freedom?
