Help with context study! :/

I really need some help my english context study.
The prompt is " a person should not be judged by his skin colour"

I wondering if anyone could maybe give me some main points ... or write an intro so i know where to head.

Also, every time a new topic is started in English, I struggle to get going. Any ideas on how to just get started when it comes to context study?
Everything in English just seems to be thrown at you. Maybe some of you language gurus can give me some advice on how to tackle context study prompts :)

Help would be much appreciated  :)

As an example you could write an imaginative piece portraying a character, or an imaginative personal piece written from the perspective of a character, who experiences crises of identity as a result of being discriminated against according to their skin colour, and the sense of social alienation which arises from this. Presumably you can use your set text to help you in writing this.

Look at prompts and brainstorm about the meaning and the ideas or assumptions you can get from that. I find that helps.
