If we were to wake up some morning and find that everyone was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other causes for prejudice by noon.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Race prejudice is not only a shadow over the colored it is a shadow over all of us, and the shadow is darkest over those who feel it least and allow its evil effects to go on.
There are a lot of people who like to think they don't have prejudices and that they're open people, and yet, we all have that in ourselves, oftentimes against people of our own race or our own gender or whatever.
It is not that we have class prejudice, but only that we find comfort and ease in our own class. And normally there are plenty of people of our own class, or race, or religion to play, live, and eat with, and to marry.
Racism has been for everyone like a horrible, tragic car crash, and we've all been heavily sedated from it. If we don't come into consciousness of this tragedy, there's going to be a violent awakening we don't want. The question is, can we wake up?
Prejudices are what fools use for reason.
Prejudice is a great time saver. You can form opinions without having to get the facts.
Prejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future and renders the present inaccessible.
Any time I saw people treated unfairly because of race, creed, whatever - it struck a nerve.
When you open your heart to patriotism, there is no room for prejudice. The Bible tells us, 'How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity.'
Prejudices save time.
