Answer:

Here is an example of someone prejudging (prejudice) another. Let's say there is a homeless person who is trying to ask for money to feed their son or daughter tonight. A person may approach the homeless man, and the homeless will say "Excuse me sir, do you have any change to spare." The man may look at the sign that the homeless person to up and it says "Trying to feed my daughter tonight." The man laughs, and he says what the sign says. Then, he says "Yeah right you are trying to feed your daughter." "More like spending money on alcohol or drugs." This is practicing prejudice because you judging someone before even knowing them.

An example of discrimination would be if a woman for example doesn't get the same amount of money as a man does if they work the same job. A woman may get paid less because they are not meant for the job, or they say that women always get paid less. This is discrimination because you are not giving the woman the same treatment as the man if they worked the same hours. It may go to a point were a woman works more than a man, but she still gets paid less.

Prejudice- unfair opinions to a group or a individual

Discrimination- mistreatment to one or a group.

Hope this helps!
