About This Quote

The stereotype that all drug dealers are black people is one of the most common prejudices of our time. It is a clear example of what happens when people aren't willing to listen to each other. It's hard to admit that you are wrong, but it's even harder to admit that you were wrong about something that you know nothing about. The problem is that some people are more willing to believe the stereotype about drug dealers than they are about racism.
