Answer:

1. In the context of the text, prejudice leads to feelings of inferiority, inability to communicate effectively, and difficulty adjusting to new environments.

2. America's marginalization of minorities has brought about the development of different values in children raised in different communities/cultures. Different styles of communication learned by children classified as minorities, may be regarded as foreign or derogatory by the White people.

The rejection Eric Deggans faced from White parents who did not want their children associating with him because of his background is an example of how America's marginalization of minorities has caused a need for code-switching. Eric became more conscious of his environment and began adapting his language and speech accordingly.

Explanation:

Code-switching is the act of switching between languages in communication. In the American setting, this act is even much needed especially among the minorities because their style of communication differs from the predominantly white community.

While those who do not use this skill may view it as putting up an act, skilled users know that it is an important means of communication.
