6. Prejudice<br />
1. What is prejudice?<br />
According to McLeod (2008), prejudice is an<br />
unjustified or incorrect attitude (usually negative)<br />
towards an individual based solely on the<br />
individual’s membership of a social group.<br />
Discrimination is prejudice in the form of action<br />
and behavior and it has caused some serious<br />
issues in the police department, especially racism<br />
in the U.S. An investigation done by U.S justice<br />
department in 2016 indicated that racism exists in<br />
different cities such as San Francisco. There are<br />
multiple reasons that U.S police are racist against<br />
black people.<br />
