Stereotypes Against Arabs/Middle Easterners
There are many stereotypes that target Arabs and Middle Easterners. A major misconception people carry is that all Arabs and Middle Easterners come with an anti-semitic ideology, however that is not the case. In fact, there is a number of Middle Easterners who do not hate on the religion and culture of Jews, but accept the other kind of people as well. In addition, people believe that all Middle Easterners either take the action themselves, or support the cause of committing terrorism, especially towards white people. this statement is not accurate because although there is a small number of Middle Easterners who have committed terrorism, that definitely does not mean that the whole Arab community supports or commits the terrifying act. Just because someone does something terrible, does not mean that others who are a part of their country also believe in the violence. There are good and bad people everywhere, and it just depends on the person themselves, but it is not based off of where they originally came from.
