I think one of the main reasons people hold prejudice beliefs is because they have a irrational fear to the unknown. For example I fear mice and I know that they aren't dangerous but either way it makes me nervous. But that is on a personal level, how would it affect society. That is my query. Why people have a prejudice and what gives rise to it. Fear you said is one factor, though irrational we still have it. What other factors are affecting the society through prejudice.
