111: "Stop Seeking Certainty.." Minow's Response To Bork
... This is the reason that I hold the view that impartiality is a myth.

113: Candidate Profile Paper on Alan Keyes
... correspond to what the media believes black people ought to be. And I know that folks think that racism is just about hatred, but that was never true. It was always about prejudice, about applying stereotypes to people on the basis of their racial grouping and then excluding them from proper and fair treatment because of those stereotypes, and that’s exactly what’s happening here” (2). Keyes goes on to say that TV anchors have flat out lied about his standing in the polls saying that he was dead last, when in ...
114: Animal Farm 7
... Storytellers have used beast fables since the story was invented. Something that has remained popular for so long must be somewhat effective. The representation of people as animals reduces their characters to the most basic stereotypes. The reader doesn t have to waste time in trying to figure out the character s personalities. In short, their inside is represented on the outside by their own physical being. One of the first and most obvious of Orwell s stereotypes is exemplified by the pigs. They represent the government officials and political figures. A great number of people would find that a quite suitable representation. Politicians have always been reputable as dirty, dishonest, and simply ...
115: Multiculturalism In Music
Visualize in your head a rock band, and a rapper. What kind of clothes are they wearing. What lyric styles are they singing in? And what color are they? Ongoing stereotypes suggest that the rock band is a group of white musicians and the rapper would be black. However, examples from the past and present shows that these stereotypes are untrue. Music is defined as “The art of organizing tones to produce a coherent sequence of sounds to elicit an aesthetic response in a listener” (Morris, 864). This country’s youth is unlike any ...

117: Diversity Within English
... although the speaker may not be fully aware of why. Examples would be avoiding contractions, and phrases like gonna or didja. Social markers are much more prevalent in American English than social indicators. 3. Social stereotypes - even speakers who regularly use these types of dialects are fully aware of the stigma attached to them. Social stereotypes would include the copula deletion in Black English, and the loosing of sounds a la Joe Pesci that produce phrases such as doze tree guys. Closely related to these social class factors are education and ...
118: Synthesis On Race And Ethnicit
... build myths, legends that both guide us and constrain us; legends that include both fact and fiction (Kotlowitz, 411). This, in fact, is how each of our respective ethnic groups derives the reinforcement for our stereotypes and prejudices. Throughout the sixties and seventies, I watched one group after another - African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans - stand up and proudly reclaim their roots while I just sank back ever deeper into my seat ... revered student newspaper The Quad, explains it best when he says, "When others seek you out, don't look down on them with arrogance." As our society exists today we can not eliminate prejudice or stereotypes. We must change and adopt all cultures and ethnic backgrounds as our own.

119: How is Tension built up in “The Monkey’s Paw” and “The Red Room”?

Even after coming out as lesbians, women self-reported themselves as believing the homosexual stereotypes. In Eliason s study 100 women surveyed responded that they were: Sick but not sorry. The respondents felt they were born lesbians, and they accepted the dominant societal images and stereotypes about lesbians, with no regrets. Lesbians in this group were rarely political. When considering coming out in middle adulthood, these women looked at their careers, place of residence, and family and friend reactions (Eliason, p ...
