Discrimination refers to unfair or unjust behaviors toward members of that group.
Stereotypes are widely shared beliefs about the behaviors, traits, and relative worth of a group of people. Prejudice, discrimination, and stereotypical beliefs have a long history of fomenting hatred in our social relations.

Survey researchers have discovered a large reduction in prejudice against blacks and members of other ethnic groups. Bias based on age, appearance, disability, and sexual orientation is also prevalent in our culture.
