I was just thinking...Real or Manufactured...Why do we mistrust one another?

Why do people mistrust one another?

Do black people mistrust each other more than other people?

Herman Melville wrote in his book the Whale or Moby Dick:

“Ignorance is the parent of fear.” 

But... is mistrust the child of fear?

Mistrust used as a noun means: lack of trust or confidence; distrust.

Mistrust used as a verb to regard with mistrust, suspicion, or doubt; distrust.

But, where does the initial mistrust come from?

“Knowing only a portion of a person, nation, state or world, misinterpretation of a person, or a situation or circumstance.”

                                    Or

             Can mistrust be manufactured?
