Different skin colors, different languages, different religions, different abilities--these are all things that sometimes cause us to judge other people unfairly. In the case of the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) community, people are judged based on their sexual relationships. Today, people who identify as LGBT are some of the least understood members of our society. Learn more about what prejudice means for the LGBT community today. 'Gallup Guides for Youth Facing Persistent Prejudice: The LGBT Community" discusses the history of prejudice toward this group, the laws that protect people against discrimination--and what you can do to fight the prejudice you find in the world.
