Purpose: In your previous classes, you have explored the concepts of stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination and how they manifest in our daily lives. Given the importance of these concepts to the study of social psychology, this assignment will build upon previous knowledge and explore these concepts at a deeper level.

Part 1.
Overview on stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination.
1. Use scholarly and credible sources to differentiate the three concepts.
2. Find and describe 2 examples of scholarly research on the concepts and the results of the research.
3. Besides what was discussed in the research articles, give an example of how the results can be seen in everyday life.
4. Find and describe an example in popular media of each of the concepts: stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination.

2. As seen with the examples above, stereotypes are embedded in our society in a way that makes it normal. Identify and discuss at least 2 different examples not listed above.
3. Looking at social movements relative to marginalized groups (Suffrage, Civil Rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, BLM, etc.), find 2+ scholarly/credible sources and discuss how stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination are perpetuated by and/or perpetuate the continued marginalization of a group. For example, some of the stereotypes of women during the Suffrage Movement were that Suffragists were masculine or gender inappropriate. Those stereotypes both led to resistance to voting rights for women and were used to scare other people from joining the movement. There was both prejudice and discrimination against women during that time.
