Prejudice and Discrimination

Today in class I spoke to you all on the distinction between Prejudice and Discrimination. We went through some of the articles in your resource pack and discussed in depth how prejudice is formed, and how it may lead to acts of discrimination. I hope you guys caught it well.

Also, we had a little experiment on how people with glasses are smarter than people without glasses. How you guys protested and gave your supporting examples. I will like you to know, the experiment was based on the following series of videos that I got off youtube. If you have time, please do take a look at the videos. As you are watching, take note of the expressions, the stigma and the possible feelings of the people involved. Also, infer and comprehend, how it must be like to be like them. More importantly, take notice, how a remark from one person could spark off this chain of reactions and eventually form a "reality" among the people involved.

As a parting note, I will leave you with the videos and also a quote that I always like to use, "Your perception is not my reality."
