Victimized groups also hold prejudice against weaker and other outgroups
Evidence
Although scarce, some research provides support for these speculations. For example, some studies found African Americans to be more prejudiced against women, and Asian Americans to be less comfortable interacting with members of other minority groups (compared to Latinos, African Americans, and Whites; e.g., Mack et al., 1997). Other studies, in contrast, found that compared to Whites and men, minorities and women are less prejudiced against other minorities, including homosexuals (e.g., Michalos & Zumbo, 2001). One reason for the neglect of this topic is researchers’ perception that the more important problem of prejudice is one of highstatus groups’ mistreatment of low-status groups, rather than the reverse ( Judd et al., 1995). We concur. Nonetheless, prejudice among members of lower-status groups, including aggression against dominant group members, is an issue worthy of attention. — , Rudman, Laurie A - On the Nature of…, 970 (
