Prejudice is often rooted in stereotypes, fear of the unfamiliar, lack of exposure to different viewpoints, and societal influences. It can also stem from feelings of superiority or insecurity. Overcoming prejudice requires education, empathy, open-mindedness, and a willingness to challenge one's own beliefs.
