Ignore

(of a grand jury) reject (a charge) as unproven.
Sure, here's an example sentence:
"The grand jury chose to ignore the charge of embezzlement, finding insufficient evidence to proceed with prosecution."

Ignorant

There's a lot of times people from a distant group of people, a group of people from another continent for example, think of all people from another continent as being the same because they look similar. For example treating all white people like they are British colonists or Nazis is as ignorant as treating all black people as Muslims, or treating all Asians as Chinese. In some African countries there are hundreds of ethnic groups, too many to count, so thinking that two people would be allies because their skin is darker is a lot like thinking that everyone with fair skin are allies because they both have fair skin in life, instead of going on an individual basis (since most people don't have time to process all this stuff on an individual basis on a daily basis).
Thinking that a group of people looking alike, or similar, means that they are alike or the same is ignorant. Not all groups of Europeans colonized foreign lands and owned/whipped slaves, for example, so calling someone a cracker because they have fair skin is ignorant. When was the last time you met a Russian family that owned black slaves hundreds of years ago. It's a lot like saying that all black people/Africans descended from slaves, or all Asians eat/like Chinese food and are kung fu masters, which is ignorant and irritating at the same time.

Ignorance

It means to not know so therefore you do not care. Ignorance is beautiful and keeps your innocence hence the phrase "innocence is bliss"
She was very ignorant.
She lacked the knowledge but was happy. Kind of SpongeBob, a dumb happy person.
She knew ignorance was bliss so she avoided knowing.

Do we really want to know what chicken nuggets are made of? No we want to stay ignorant.

ignorance

Willful lack of knowledge: An seemingly small nuisance that is secretly the greatest problem in modern civilization. It has been used to justify some of the greatest atrocities humanity has ever committed, stunt and void necessary advances and progress on all fronts, and suppress the rights and opinions of others by no reasonable fault on their part. It is an all-encompassing ideology that spans most if not all of society in one way or another, whether it be small ideas like "It's just a (insert item here)." or major global historic events like the Trail of Tears; and if left unchanged will eventually be the downfall of mankind.
"...Many people would argue that ignorance is worse than knowledge..."
