Answer:True

Explanation:This thing of being fed misinformation mostly start when we are still young from our families, communities, ethnic groups, provinces and countries.

For example when you grow up in a community dominated by a certain ethnic group your perspective of other ethnic group will be influenced by what you were told from a young age and it will keep playing in your mind even when you are an adult.

If you were told that particular ethnic group of people are stubborn and they don't like working when you start working with someone from that ethnic group this will be in your mind even if you don't want to be judgemental.
