The Message: Prejudice
Manage episode 433923534 series 3592768
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces" (Matthew 7:1-6).
Three facts about implicit bias or implicit prejudice are listed below.
- Implicit bias is a harmful misconception about a specific race.
- Stereotyping is a social cognition process that enables people to make sense of what their world looks like. It involves the categorization of individuals into social groups based on certain characteristics. This process can lead to the assumption that all group members share the same traits and behaviors, resulting in unfair and inaccurate generalizations.
- Implicit bias expressions are actions, words, or behaviors that stem from unconscious prejudices and lead to unfair treatment, degrading actions, unequal treatment, and the abuse of power through verbal aggression or vulgarity directed at individuals of a specific race.
Understanding that implicit bias can cause individuals to link certain groups with specific traits or characteristics automatically and can be dangerous when action is applied. For example, it can lead to assuming that people from a particular racial or ethnic group are more likely to be criminals, to believe that women are less competent in certain professions unfairly, or that a particular race, because of their skin color, is inferior.
It's crucial to be aware of these biases, work towards creating a more inclusive and fair society for everyone, and associate yourself with the right people. The problem is that you might walk into the wrong person who is prejudice and has ulterior motives when looking for the right person.
Many people desire to have kind-hearted individuals in their lives, but this season, there are prejudice people with intentions to cause harm. Make sure you're not one of them. Listen to the episode "The Message: Prejudice."
