Morphology
nonprejudiced = prejudiced (transparent) = non + prejudice + ed
The negation prefix 'non-' added to the adjective 'prejudiced' straightforwardly yields 'not prejudiced'.
Etymology
The word nonprejudiced begins with non- meaning 'not', and the rest comes from pre- 'before' plus judge, so it basically means 'not judge before'. That's why a nonprejudiced person does not have unfair ideas about others and treats people fairly.
