## Caption

We like to imagine prejudice as something loud, obvious, theatrical.

Often it is quieter than that.
A reflex.
A habit of perception.
A need to resolve uncertainty before encounter has even begun.

After watching Enigma, I kept returning to one question: why does ambiguity still disturb people so much?

Not because the answer is simple. Because it isn’t.
