need answer

According to the text, prejudice can cause very serious injustices. That's because prejudice led to pre-established opinions, which promoted actions that were very harmful to the Scottsboro Boys from boarding the train to the final judgment.

We can arrive at this answer because:

The Scottsboro Boys were a group of black boys who were accused of abusing two white women when they boarded a train.
They were soon arrested and everyone believed they were guilty even before the trial was held.
This happened because, from the moment they boarded the train, people were sure that they would commit a crime. This certainty was justified by the fact that they were black.

Even during the trial, everyone already had an opinion about the boys' guilt, because of the color of their skin, even though there was no evidence that they were guilty and there was plenty of evidence that they were innocent. This showed how prejudice and racism are capable of causing very serious injustice.
