FAQ
Prejudices can exist without being shown in the form of discrimination. Similarly discrimination can be shown without prejudice. Wherever prejudice and discrimination exist conflicts are very likely to arise between groups within the same society.
Prejudice is the internalized attitude and bias against a group of people. A prejudiced person does not have to act on their biases, but when they do act on those biases, against a certain person or group, it becomes discrimination.
For example: If you hold an opinion that women do not like to travel in their jobs and, for this reason, you do not select a woman for a job requiring travel. You have committed a discriminatory act (based on your prejudice); this is unlawful.
Prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination often go hand-in-hand, but it is also possible to have one without the others. When an ethnic group is stereotyped with a neutral or positive attribute such as "family-oriented," prejudice and discrimination may not be involved.
While prejudice refers to biased thinking, discrimination consists of actions against a group of people. Discrimination can be based on race, ethnicity, age, religion, health, and other categories.
Negative prejudices that are common in a society can cause tension between groups. Or result in groups of people being discriminated against or treated unequally on the basis of, for example, their background, skin colour, or religion. This is called discrimination.
