In the previse week we have talk about several thing such as stereotype, prejudice and privilege and how that will effect the people behavior. A stereotype could define as a thought that may be adopted about specific types of individuals or certain ways of doing things. When prejudice mean making a decision before becoming aware of the relevant facts of a case. Privilege granted as a peculiar benefit, advantage, or favor. The first two thing (stereotype and prejudice) have been use for a long time and continue through this generation. For instance, some people had to change their last name so they could get a job. Anther one from the book when a black women where talking about her experience at the mall when the seller allowed her whit friend to try the dress but they did not allowed her using her skin color as an excise.
