There are many types of stereotypes and some are funny and some are mean. Stereotypes are not always valid because they are based off of certain habits people have. The saying, "Genocide can never be eliminated because it is deeply rooted in human nature" is not valid. Genocide is not rooted in human nature because it is something that takes place due to certain people wanting it that way. It does not take place without people wanting it to and people can prevent it if they try. Committing murder is not something that should be accepted as a part of nature. If people believe that genocide and murder cannot be eliminated then it never will be. 
     In my opinion, in order to overcome habits of stereotyping I need to accept people for who they are. Stereotyping is a form of habit and by teaching myself how to overlook one's ethnicity and different habits, I will overcome my habits of stereotyping.
