Prejudice corrupts the foundation of fairness by distorting reality, leading to unfair judgments and actions. Recognizing that prejudice is fundamentally untruthful highlights how it undermines trust and perpetuates injustice in societies. Addressing prejudice requires confronting uncomfortable truths and promoting honest dialogue and understanding. In doing so, we can forge more equitable and compassionate communities, where fairness prevails over bias. Essentially, combating prejudice is essential for pursuing justice and integrity in human relations.

Pretending,' she looked at the garden, 'is not the truth.''But you said two true things, right ? One, you hate this girl. Two, you want her to feel better. If you decide that the wanting truth's more important than the hating truth, just tell her you've forgiven her, even if you haven't. At least she'd feel better. Maybe that'd make you feel better too. — David Mitchell

Since most law-abiding citizens had no contact with the parole system, it was not a priority with the state legislatures. And since most of the state's prisoners were either poor or black, and unable to use the system to their advantage, it was easy to hit them with harsh sentences and keep them locked up. But for an inmate with a few connections and some cash, the parole system was a marvelous labyrinth of contradictory laws that allowed the Parole Board to pass out favors. — John Grisham The Last Juror
