For African-Americans, experiencing racism and prejudice on a regular basis adds to their everyday stress. There were several things against them, including: Of course, there is biased and violent policing, but there are also lingering effects of segregation on education, employment opportunities, and health; a multi-tiered wage system that favors white men more than others, especially black women.

<h3>What is prejudice ?</h3>

A person may have affective feelings of bias based on how they are regarded to fit into a particular group. The expression is frequently used to describe an initial judgment or categorization of another person based on that political leanings, perceived values, beliefs, sex, gender, gender identity, social class, age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, race, and ethnicity of a person, language, nationality, culture, complexion, beauty, height, profession, wealth, education, criminality, sport-team affiliation, music preferences, or other personal characteristics.

The term "prejudice" can also be used to refer to unfounded or categorical beliefs as well as irrational attitudes that are exceptionally resistant to rational influence. Gordon Allport defined prejudice as "feeling, favorable or unfavorable, toward a person or object, previous to, or not grounded on, actual experience."

A criminal justice system that is punitive for people of color but can find forgiveness, mercy, and understanding for people of color; and the perception that one's labor and even one's life are less valuable than those of other citizens.

In what ways did the French Revolution produce Freedom? what were the limits of this freedom?
Darina [25.2K]

In what ways did the French Revolution produce Freedom? Equality before the law and representative government have now their place in almost all the codes of Europe. In theory, at least, the law makes no distinctions between men and everyone has the right to participate, more or less, in the government. The new order was based on individual rights, representative institutions and loyalty to the nation rather than the monarch.

what were the limits of this freedom? It imposed that the right of the lord over the person of the peasant no longer exists in France. Royal authority based on divine right is no longer exercised. There would still be a king, but a Legislative assembly would make the laws.
