| Tartalmi kivonat: | Americans are said to be very open to anything and anyone. However, this is not entirely true in reality. Discrimination and prejudice have been there in the American society every since the United States was born and even before that. The different minorities were treated and regarded differently by the Americans. The main difference emerged from racial and religious prejudice. Blacks were in an inferior position as whites looked down on them because of the color of their skin, culture and language. It was racial prejudice that made the situation of blacks worse besides the fact that they were. struggling for gaining freedom. In contrast with racial prejudice Americans were more .open in religious questions. Though religious groups, like Jews, also had to face distinction, this was not as harsh as it was in the case of black people. |
