"偏見は過去を混乱させ、未来を脅かし、現在をアクセス不能にする重荷です。"

Simplified Meaning:

When people have prejudices, they make assumptions about others based on things like race, gender, or religion without really knowing them. This can mess up how we understand history because we're not seeing the true picture. It can also create tensions and conflicts that put our future at risk by dividing us. Plus, holding these biases makes it hard to appreciate and connect with people right now because we're not giving them a fair chance. For example, if someone wrongly believes that a particular group of people is lazy or not smart, they might treat individuals from that group unfairly at work or school. This could mean missing out on valuable contributions those people could make. Over time, these attitudes can create a hostile environment that isn't good for anyone. To avoid this, we should make an effort to get to know people as individuals rather than judging them based on stereotypes. This way, we can better understand each other's histories, work together towards a better future, and build positive relationships in the present. In everyday life, this means giving everyone a chance and not letting preconceived ideas cloud our judgment.
