In all honesty, I was unaware that Oprah was a survivor of sexual assault before today. -Victoria Pereira ]]> 2022-11-01 19:45:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365528673 Yes, I was surprised about the person i was sitting next to but not in a physical aspect more so because it was a celebrity- Ines https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365528785 2022-11-01 19:45:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365528785 I was not surprised it was Cameron Diaz who openly has a mental health disorder. My group and I discussed that any person can have a mental health disorder, no matter their status or what they look like. - Madelyn C https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365528811 2022-11-01 19:45:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365528811 https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365528905 Yeah, I think I was surprised for sure. I think everyone has the same image in their mind when they think of an ex convict. And I was very surprised that Nelson Mandela could be in the category of an ex convict. -Chloe ]]> 2022-11-01 19:45:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365528905 I was surprised that my person was Anne Frank. I imagined that I would be next to a male who is a tall teenager and had a bald head and tattoos. I feel this could be a common image and assumption. But in actuality it was a female who went through trauma. - Paige https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529046 2022-11-01 19:46:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529046 Was I surprised? https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529179 I wasn't really surprised. What I had pictured was a white man with a big build and shaved head but I also know that convicts can look like anyone. Honestly, I would have been more shocked if it was a woman. I also knew that because we were on a plane it couldn't be someone that was unsafe. - Bridgette]]> 2022-11-01 19:46:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529179 https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529183 Yes I was surprised, I did not know that Albert Einstein was a refugee. However, I was not disappointed because from that he probably had a lot of stories that I could benefit from hearing. - Megan H]]> 2022-11-01 19:46:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529183 Person with mental health diagnosis https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529257 I wasn't surprised by the person next me, as my group and I were talking about how anyone can have a mental health condition. We couldn't even describe what someone would look like because many people have mental conditions. However, we weren't expecting OCD, we were more discussing anxiety or depression. -Julia W]]> 2022-11-01 19:46:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529257 https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529374 I was not expecting for Albert Einstein to be the person next to me. My preconceived notions and unconscious bias influenced who I thought is considered "a refugee". As a result, it was a shock to see that even famous people, as much as we think we know them, also fall under these categories. It is important to reflect on our assumptions and see how they influence how we perceive people, and how it can be a negative thing. - Lauren]]> 2022-11-01 19:46:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529374 Fayth https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529695 I was definitely surprised by the person I was sitting beside because I assumed something totally different than who it was for all topics. This just showcases how we all have ingrained views and biases that shape how we view the world. We also don't know what someone has gone through in their life, which would make them be within some of those categories, which was surprising to see. ]]> 2022-11-01 19:46:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529695 Ex convict https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529806 He was different than I expected because I was expecting someone who did something bad to get into jail yet Nelson Mandela went to jail for standing up for something good. -Ashtyn]]> 2022-11-01 19:46:39 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529806 I was expecting a basketball player who was tall, male, and played in the NBA-Cassandra https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529971 2022-11-01 19:46:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365529971 I was expecting Shaquille O'Neal to be sitting next to me on the plane because of the stereotypical world class basketball players that i was imagining. Thinking of someone who is a tall male that is well known yet it was the complete opposite. - Gabriella https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530057 2022-11-01 19:46:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530057 I didn't have very high expectations as to what this individual would look like. When discussing what this person would look like, my group agreed they would just look like a regular looking person. Mental health doesn't have a 'look' per say- Ines https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530571 2022-11-01 19:47:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530571 Ex-Convict https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530728 it was surprising to see Nelson Mandela, my first thought would have been a white male with a bigger build and shaved head. More seen as someone who would fit the stereotype and not someone who is seen as an important figure in society. - Zuzanna]]> 2022-11-01 19:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530728 https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530739 I was surprised to see Oprah as my seat neighbour because I wasn't aware of what she had gone through, but I was not shocked because sexual abuse is so common and so many people have gone through it. I don't think that there is a specific imagine of a survivor of sexual assault -Karma]]> 2022-11-01 19:47:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530739 BASKETBALL https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530798 I was expecting a tall, male basketball player and this individual was very different. There is a stereotype surrounding basketball players and that is what first came to my mind. It is important to look past stereotypes within my future as a teacher. -maddy]]> 2022-11-01 19:47:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530798 I was surprised at who the person next to me turned out to be, as we have biases towards people of which we are not aware. I had not considered that the basketball player would have been in a wheelchair, although I should not have looked past this. This activity allowed me to challenge my assumptions moving forward. -Caitlin Ireton https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530940 2022-11-01 19:47:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365530940 https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365531620 this was the first thing that came up when i looked up a photo of a shaved head with tattoos through padlets media library. the media provided to us shapes what we associate with certain characteristics
- rachel]]> 2022-11-01 19:48:16 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365531620 https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365531654 I was expecting potentially a family (i.e mother and her child) coming to a new country. I chose to sit next to a refugee because I really value learning about other people's lived experiences and life stories because I think learning from other's is so important for a more diverse and inclusive society. Sitting beside Albert Einstein would allow me the opportunity to learn about his lived experiences influenced the trajectory of his life. - Danielle]]> 2022-11-01 19:48:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365531654 I think that the influence of the media and how most people are drawn to watch male sports like the NHL or the NBA. Those presumptions of expecting myself to be sitting next to a male basketball player is effected by these norms of watching male sports. - Gabriella https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365532547 2022-11-01 19:49:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365532547 basketball player https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365532572 The world class basketball player that I ended up "sitting next to" was different from what I expected because I was imagining a tall, athletic, male. It was a very stereotypical view but I think that it because of my unconscious bias that I have surrounding that sport as well as what parts of that sport are broadcasted. ]]> 2022-11-01 19:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365532572 Kayley Thompson https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365532775 Basketball Player: The person was different from what I expected because I was expecting some very famous male basketball player that plays in the NBA - such as LeBron James - however, the person turned out to be a different basketball player that was female. Something that could have influenced this bias is that women in sports are less commonly "famous" than males in sports. Additionally, I was not expecting an individual who was in a wheelchair, because they are often underrepresented in the sports world along with females. ]]> 2022-11-01 19:49:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365532775 https://padlet.com/kelleymercuri/94xjkw3t2lg6zby5/wish/2365533407 I was surprised by the person next to me, because I stereotyped how they appeared, for example, wearing a hoodie, cool tracksuit, cool shoes. The reveal of the person i was actually sitting next to me indicated that we can't expect how someone will look, act, or behave. -Alexa Compare
