| 'I feel prejudiced to groups in my community due to events that I have witnessed that have effected me |
|
1 |
| A lot of them don’t work and they spoil the look of a place, Ireland has been white for hundreds of years why should it change now |
|
1 |
| Abuse of the benefits system |
|
1 |
| As we are not taught enough about diversity in schools despite the idea that people think we are. |
|
1 |
| Because I am Polish, so there are many stereotypes about me. |
|
1 |
| Because I am white |
|
1 |
| Because I don’t know their type of background and don’t socialise with them |
|
1 |
| Because I don’t properly understand their background/beliefs |
|
1 |
| Because I feel that they come to NI to be educated and get jobs. Then they send money back to their family in their own country e.g.. Poland. |
|
1 |
| Because I think everyone, naturally, is at least a little bit prejudiced against groups they don’t know much about, even if it's unintentional. |
|
1 |
| Because family and friends opinions affect my opinions |
|
1 |
| Because not being from the country people think we are different but we aren't different we are all the same |
|
1 |
| Because of some of the things they do. |
|
1 |
| Because of stereotypes of our modern society |
|
1 |
| Because of the way the world is today e.g. bombing etc |
|
1 |
| Because of what I see on television - the news on Syria or people bombing places for no reason |
|
1 |
| Because society is very judgmental |
|
1 |
| Because the other communities are prejudiced to me so I retaliate. |
|
1 |
| Because there are sometimes where I receive racist comments in school |
|
1 |
| Because they are from different countries with different ways of life so we obviously judge differences in general |
|
1 |
| Being blonde as everyone thinks I'm stupid |
|
1 |
| Being brought up in a divided society |
|
1 |
| Being half Basque and not fully Irish |
|
1 |
| Brought up with the impression they are 'bad' and just bring trouble - influenced by media. |

| By watching the news about different ethnic communities and their crimes |

| Depends on what location, Personally I feel Northern Ireland is developing into a more culturally diverse 'country' although there are stull areas where I and many others feel 'prejudiced' when speaking to family and friends in the past. Personally I |

| Don’t know them |
|
1 |
| Don’t no what that means |
|
1 |
| Due to negative influence of the media that is portrayed of minority ethnic communities |
|
1 |
| Due to past experiences, or stories I've heard |
|
1 |
| Due to recent attacks all over Europe (not racist, just wary). Some refugees being offered houses before citizens all over Europe. |
|
1 |
| Due to religion or somebody's background |
|
1 |
| Due to social media the view of others can change your own |
|
1 |
| Due to stereotypes and events which are occurring more often e.g. terrorist attacks. Past events also contribute e.g. Catholic and Protestant tensions during the troubles. |
|
1 |
| Europe is not the natural habitat for non-Europeans. |
|
1 |
| Events that have happened in the past make me think this way. |
|
1 |
| Everyone feels prejudiced sometimes because it is hard to not be prejudge someone that is different from yourself or have been told about |
|
1 |
| Everyone is a little prejudiced whether malicious or not. |
|

| Everyone is a little prejudiced, I can think prejudiced things sometimes but would never act on them |

| From all the bombings/killings/gangs that are related to the Muslim religion I would have a guard up against them. I feel they go too far and I wouldn’t trust any Muslim. |

| Grown up with my own ethnic group, not surrounded by any other. |
|
1 |
| Half of my family being Catholic |
|
1 |
| Hanging about in big groups in public, can often make me develop an opinion on them. |
|
1 |
| Hearing things from the media. |
|
1 |
| How other religions seem to get stuff that I am not entitled to. |
|
1 |
| How would I feel if I was in the situation |
|
1 |
| I am not used to them so find it difficult to socialise with them. Their different culture means that they have different ways of socialising and interests, some of which are strange and a bit odd in my culture |
|
1 |
| I am slightly prejudiced against everyone but after getting to know someone who I have been prejudiced about, I normally change my opinion because they can be nice sometimes. |
|
1 |
| I an uneducated in the correct ways in how to look at people due to the society in which we live in. It is also because I rarely spend time or talk to people from an ethnic minority. |
|
1 |
| I believe no matter what background you come from you will be prejudiced towards by someone, no matter what background they come from either. |
|
1 |
| I believe that I feel slightly prejudiced due to how I have been brought up with such strong feeling towards different issues. |
|

| I don’t feel prejudiced because I love meet new people. |
|
1 |
| I don’t know who they are or what they want/need so I question why they are here. |
|
1 |
| I don’t trust them, because I don’t know what they're capable of. |
|
1 |
| I don’t want bombed by Syrians |
|
1 |
| I feel prejudiced because of the way the media sometimes present different people from minority groups |
|
1 |
| I feel that generally the minority ethnic communities in Northern Ireland have no care or respect for the traditional Northern Irish cultures or religious beliefs. I also feel that there is a fear of minority ethnic communities mainly the Muslim comm |
|
1 |
| I feel that socially I have an upper hand, and that is probably easier for me to get a job than someone from a minority ethnic community |
|
1 |
| I feel that they are a drain on society because they take more than what they give back to society. |
|
1 |
| I have experienced prejudice towards myself from other communities. It is made out that Protestants are the only prejudice people in Northern Ireland, however the Catholic community are just as bad, with some members targeting my school bus. It works both |
|
1 |
| I just feel that we as a country have our own traditions and cultures, that is ours. I feel that minority groups should not add their tradition and culture to ours. |
|
1 |
| I sometimes feel the govt cares/thinks more about ethnic communities rather than people from here and by accepting so many people in could/is putting us at risk |
|
1 |
| I suppose I don't really know them well enough |
|
1 |
| I suppose in the current events of terrorist attacks it has made me a little wary although I know it's not right to be prejudiced |
|
1 |
| I think because the media and the world around us tell us things we shouldn't think, feel, or say, instead of destroying prejudices… they often create them. For example, deeming a project cross-community implies there are barriers needing to be broke |
|
1 |
| I think it's because Northern Ireland is a mainly white country, I feel differently when I see someone from a minority ethnic group. |
|
1 |
| I think that I feel quite prejudiced because of how people of ethnic minorities are portrayed in the news and media. |
|
1 |
| I'm from South Africa and I'm white |
|
1 |
| I'm not prejudiced. |
|
1 |
| I'm really not sure why I am, probably just from hearing other people being against minority ethnic communities. |

| People are people. What or who they are should not matter. |
|
1 |
| People form countries like Romania or Bulgaria are known for stealing or working on the street. This just makes me think that they are all like this which is not true. |
|
1 |
| People from other countries think they go by their laws in their country and don’t follow our laws in this country. |
|

| People mock Christianity all the time. If it was another religion then they are fine and they are accepted such as Muslims. |

| Some of the foreign people in my school talk about how their parents claim unemployment and disability benefits when they don’t even have an honest disability which can make me cross that they abuse the benefit system of this country. |

1 |
| The don’t seem to adjust to our life in our country. It’s like they keep themselves to themselves and are creating mini countries inside our country for them. If they come to our country they should adjust and be a part of our lifestyle and country. |

1 |
| The media |
|
1 |
| The media often portrays other ethnic or religious groups in a damning way. There is a lack of education in schools to dispel prejudices that young people are exposed to. |
|

| The news has broadcasted the bad in these ethnic groups and never the good. |
|
1 |
| The perception and presentation of these groups in the media and the views of my family or friends |
|
1 |
| The society of Northern Ireland is still deeply divided mostly between protestants and catholics, so growing up hearing one sided stories of the Troubles or 'the other side' contributes to prejudice for all backgrounds. |
