Prejudice

This is just a little funny cartoon that shows something serious; prejudice is never really eliminated. When one group has reached some sort of equality, there's always another that has not. However, it can also be said that no group will ever be free of stereotype. Prejudice could be called a part of human nature, yes-but it's a part that we need to reject in order to keep a more peaceful and civilized society.
It's true as well that being categorized has its benefits. Imagine how scary it would be to not belong to any sort of group. You could call it "freedom from judgment", but you are also missing a huge part of your identity. As human beings, we are comfortable fitting in with a group. If that group is insulted or threatened, all of its members unite against the outside force; whereas if an individual is threatened who does not belong to a group, he would have no one to back him up. In minimizing stereotypes, we shouldn't try to disregard the part of a person's identity that is defined by a group. Rather, we should learn to see the person both as a member of a group-without negative judgment based on it- and as an individual.
