Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

94.5K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Area of Science:

  • Sociology
  • Criminology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Formerly incarcerated individuals experience substantial difficulties securing safe and stable housing.
  • Housing access is crucial for reintegration, economic self-sufficiency, and shedding stigmatized identities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the lived experiences of formerly incarcerated individuals searching for housing.
  • To understand the role of stigma in housing access and reintegration.

Main Methods:

  • Repeated qualitative interviews conducted every 6 months over 3 years.
  • Study involved 44 formerly incarcerated individuals.

Main Results:

  • The housing search is central to reintegration but fraught with barriers stemming from incarceration stigma.
  • Structural and interpersonal stigma associated with incarceration impedes access to housing.
  • Housing challenges paradoxically reinforce stigmatized identities, hindering the shedding of these labels.

Conclusions:

  • Stigma restricts access to housing, a vital resource, leading to ongoing stigmatization.
  • Stigma, enacted by individuals, the state, and internalized, reproduces inequality and the discrediting mark of incarceration.
