yes prejudie did play a major role in the Bahamas in the 1950's and s60's. i say this mainly because there was a lady by the name of doris Johnson who fought for the rights for women to vote back then only men had a say and to her it wasnt fair at all because we are all equal and all of us should be able to do the same thing she taught so she took it upon herself and she gathered a few ladies and they protested

Yes, prejudice and racial discrimination were prominent in the Bahamas in the 1950s, particularly in the context of the colonial rule and the social hierarchy that favored the white minority. People of color faced systemic barriers in education, employment, and other areas of society. Efforts towards equality and civil rights gained momentum during this period.
