Bias

In these stories, bias can be defined as thoughts leading to actions that discriminate against or disproportionately favor one person or group over another based on incorrect or superficial perceptions. (paraphrase from Bias: The Basics) Many of our biases have been passed down from our ancient ancestors. These stories contain examples or explanations of bias.
