Prejudice

Since Martin Luther King Day is Monday this seems like an appropriate topic.

To pre judge is to make a conclusion with having all the facts. 

Long ago humans assumed that anyone who looked different was probably coming to invade and take over their territory. Although they may have been mistaken, they often weren’t, and that prejudice helped them prepare to defend and protect what they had.

But this is the twenty first century. Times have changed and it’s too bad that we are still dealing with prejudice against each other.

Of  course if I were walking down a city street and saw a group of men who were dressed like members of a gang it would be wise for me to avoid them. 

But, for the most part, we shouldn’t pass judgement on other people (Someone even more famous than Martin Luther King said that.)
