This is an image I took of a building with art on it in San Francisco, Love on Haight. I chose stereotypes, assumptions of characteristics, as the concept that relates to this picture. The reason stereotypes connect to this is that within society we tend to equate the the rainbow with the LGBTQ+ community. Although I do believe this plays a part in this art, I think that it can also have other meanings. Many artists love the use of vibrant colors as it play well into the interpreter's emotions. Connecting with stereotypes, these colors can represent many different things for different cultures; which is why this stereotype can be harmful to some.

This is an image of a display I took (some time ago) at San Francisco MOMA, by the artist Pacita Abad from Basco, Philippines. Pacita Abad's artwork consists of vibrantly colored paintings, along with hand-stitched textiles, sequins, and beads she found during her travels in Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America. Culture shock, the disorientation that people experience when they come into contact with a different culture, relates to my experience at this display. The reason was that I felt overwhelmed with the interpretations I felt from her art combined with the vibrant colors. I could see that there was so much culture and history behind her artwork that I didn't understand but wished to.

Quest 1: Chicago Avenue and 38th Street, Minneapolis MN

# data[].attributes.body
This quest was intended to find the significance of this address; the murder of George Floyd occurred at this location. The brutal murder of George Floyd demonstrates institutional racism, the policies and structures in society, and organizational systems that result in inequality, as his death was caused by excessive force by a police officer; which disproportionately affects African Americans. The institution of policing has lacked accountability for misconduct within its officers allowing racial biases and abuse of power to remain in authority; adding to the systematic inequality African American communities face. 8: It is important to note that this brutal murder consisted of a police officer, Derek Chauvin, kneeling on George Floyd's neck for 9 minutes and 29 seconds; asphyxiating him until he died. 10: People's interactions with this murder range as there was controversy online when this murder occurred in 2020, with people displaying racist remarks towards Floyd or spreading misinformation in regards to Floyd's cause of death. This further displays the institutional racism demonstrated in the murder of George Floyd.

Quest 2: Human Rights, Environmental Justice, and Climate Change: Flint, Michigan

# data[].attributes.body
This quest was intended to research these topics in regard to Flint, Michigan. The research I conducted on the Flint, Michigan water crisis relates to our course as it connects to the diffusion of responsibility when individuals are less likely to take action or feel responsible for an act when others are present. Countless government officials failed to prioritize the health of the people in acting on the clear signs of lead contamination in their water. The delayed responses from government officials turned into nobody taking responsibility for the water crisis. 5: The community of Flint, Michigan does not benefit in any way from the water crisis. 9: Another aspect of this quest is the fact that the contaminated water harmed the community by exposing them to the toxic lead-contaminated water which led to many health issues and also impacted the economy. These factors display the role of diffusion of responsibility, as nobody stepped up to take accountability for the contamination; nor creating a solution to the issue.

Quest 3: Waitress berates Latino couple for speaking Spanish | What Would You Do?

# data[].attributes.body
This quest was looking to see how we can analyze the waitress' behavior. This clip from WWYD relates to our course as it depicts interactionism, the concept that society is created through the interactions between individuals. The waiter is berating the couple for speaking Spanish as she does not. This reflects interactionism as the waiter's social interactions shape her behavior as an individual and demonstrate the waiter's lack of social experience, showing how social dynamics influence personal identity. 2. This WWYD was created to show people the way people hold prejudice and discriminate against Latinos and show the reactions of others in society. 10. The interactions in this video vary, as one man confronted the waitress along with translating for the couple and offering to pay the bill; while another couple agreed with the waitress that the couple needs to speak English. These actions display interactionism as some people believe these discriminatory actions to be okay as their interactions between individuals serve as a confirmation bias.

This quest was asking us to find who these six women were. This photo depicts the only female Supreme Court Justices to ever serve, four being active. This connects to our course as it demonstrates the minority, a group within a larger group or society that differs from the majority (in terms of race, ethnicity, religion, or gender). Out of 115 justices that have served on the Supreme Court only 6 have been women. They are under-represented as women in comparison to the 109 men who have served. 9. Another way to think about this quest is being underrepresented in such an influential institution can cause harm; the overruling of Roe v. Wade. 10. Societies interactions vary but many see this as a reflection of systematic barriers to gender equality in high legal and governmental positions. As seeing the large disparity in the male-to-female ratio of Supreme Court Justices we see how women are underrepresented and have fought through barriers to get to their position.

This quest is intended to have us find the significance of this location. Balmy Alley in San Francisco, California connects to our course as it demonstrates culture, shared beliefs, values, and behaviors that characterize a group or society. As it showcases murals that reflect the community's history, values, and political issues. 2. This was created for the community to serve as a visual representation of the expression of heritage and identity. 7. The meaning of these murals can change depending on who is interpreting the murals, as someone who comes from a culture that is being displayed through the mural will personally resonate with it more than someone who does not. Balmy Alley's expression of human rights and political issues through art demonstrates culture for the community to interpret.

Quest 7: Elektra Reading A Transphobe For Filth

# data[].attributes.body
This quest was asking us to analyze this scene. This scene of Elektra reacting to the lady's transphobia connects with our course as it relates to the idea of gender polarization, the idea of viewing gender as a binary concept (masculinity and femininity acting as opposite exclusive traits). The transphobia displayed reinforces gender as a binary concept, marginalizing them as they don't conform to traditional gender roles. 2. This was created to inform people about the transphobia that their community faces, even when not bothering anybody they are attacked based on the way they identify. 5. The transgender community does not benefit from transphobia as it is an act of discrimination and hate. Further supporting the fact that this scene displays gender polarization.

This quest was asking to identify what the photo is depicting. Henna connects with our course as it relates to the idea of symbolic culture, which consists of aspects like values, norms, and symbols, that shape how people communicate. As Henna represents traditional practices and values within various cultures. Henna embodies significance across cultures and communities through intricate, symbolic designs. 4. The communities that have deep cultural roots with Henna benefit from its medicinal uses; cooling the skin, reducing inflammation, and calming headaches. 8. It is important to note that Henna has deep cultural significance in South Asia, Middle Eastern, and North African communities. This supports how Henna is related to symbolic culture due to its deep roots within its communities.

Quest 8: Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization (2022)

# data[].attributes.body
This quest was asking to identify the significance of this case in society. The Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization was the US Supreme Court overruling Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. This connects to our course as it relates to the concept of inequality, the unequal distribution of resources, opportunities, and rights within a society, as this created it so the states have the power to decide the regulations regarding abortions. This is an unequal distribution of resources as some states offer access to abortions and are legal, while other states have ruled them illegal and will prosecute those who find this procedure elsewhere if they reside in a state that has abortions banned. 5. Women do not benefit from the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization case as it was the turning point in the overruling of Roe v. Wade which took away the choice of getting an abortion for women in many states. 9. Another aspect of this is the fact that many women have already had major health complications, and have died since the overruling of Roe v. Wade due to being denied care, even when their health is at risk, in states where abortions are illegal, with no exceptions. These ideas support the fact that abortions being illegal in many states displays inequality among the women of the United States.
