Prejudice is pre-judging someone, based on some attribute.
Example: young adults males with pants hanging low and backwards ball caps are homies, gangbangers, or banger wannabes.
I'd say that's also a stereotype. But there's the possibility that someone who looks like that might be an upstanding citizen.
But I say; you wear the uniform, people are gonna pre-judge you to be that stereotype. Hopefully the person doing the judging will hold open the possibility that this is the exception to the rule.
But if you've got the low pants thing going on, I'm going approach you with extreme caution.
And, if you're in a suit and tie, I'll give more trust by default, also knowing that you could be the exception to that stereotype, and be a thug that beats and robs me.

That's predicating that racism and prejudice are the same thing though. Are they not different?
So did she get fired or not?
I believe you're correct. Racism is one group mistreating another on the basis of a perceived superiority. Prejudices are natural. Now the modern (re)definition of racism is pretty much anything pertaining to race - especially if used, said, or implied by a Caucasian.
