Many prejudices are the result of ignorance. Learn as much as you can about the person or group and this may help in some cases to resolve this. It will also help you to converse intelligently with those against whom you wish to overcome prejudice. Trying to understand the reasons for prejudice generally and yours in particular may also help.
From a Christian perspective, we understand that people are all 'of one blood' which means, as modern genetics also reveals, that despite individual differences, we are all essentially the same genetically. This is perhaps an example of ignorance, based (for some people) on the unscientific theory of evolution (some would see this as a prejudice of mine) which taught that there were some races which were more highly evolved than others. So, in this case, whatever the reason for thinking this, a knowledge of either the Bible teaching, or modern genetics, or both, may help.

Discrimination involves treating individuals differently based on certain characteristics. For laws to result in discrimination, they need to target specific groups or individuals based on characteristics such as race, gender, religion, or nationality. Additionally, discrimination may occur if laws are not applied equally or fairly to all individuals.
To build defenses against discrimination, organizations can implement anti-discrimination policies, provide diversity and inclusion training, encourage open communication, establish reporting mechanisms for incidents of discrimination, and hold individuals accountable for discriminatory behavior. Creating a culture that values diversity and promotes respect for all individuals is key to preventing discrimination.
Individuals who are transgender may experience discrimination in various ways compared to those who are cisgender. Transgender individuals may face discrimination based on their gender identity, such as being misgendered, facing barriers to accessing healthcare or employment, and experiencing higher rates of violence and harassment. Cisgender individuals, on the other hand, may not face the same level of discrimination based on their gender identity.

Of course, it was discrimination and slavery. But, in the U.S., we have overcome that issue. But in other countries people still, sadly, discriminate blacks. Peace over the world! :]
