Saho explains that she had prejudices against Chinese people before she had a chance to visit China and met the people face to face. After participating in an exchange program to China, she realized that she had many unfounded prejudices. She learned to appreciate Chinese culture and made many good friends. She now highly recommends that everyone try to end their “Just Because” prejudices by visiting other countries, making friends with people from other ethnic backgrounds and studying international history.
Saho is a second-year high school student in Nagano, Japan. She is passionate about encouraging us to open our minds to learn about other cultures and end our “Just Because” Prejudices.
