Answer to Question 1

Prejudice is as diverse as the nation's population. It exists not only between dominantand subordinate people but also among specific subordinate groups. Unfortunately,until recently little research existed on this subject except for a few social distance scalesadministered to racial and ethnic minorities.

Often, low-income people compete daily with other low-income people and do not readily see the larger societal forces that contribute.Most troubling is when intergroup hostility becomes violent. Ethnic and racial tensions among African Americans, Latinos, and immigrants may become manifest in hate crimes. Violence can surface in neighborhoods where people compete for scarce resources such as jobs and housing. Gangs become organized along racial lines, much like private clubs downtown. In recent years, Los Angeles has been particularly concerned about rivalBlack and Hispanic gangs. Conflict theorists see this violence as resulting from larger structural forces, but for the average person in such areas, life itself becomes more of achallenge.
