We talked about lord farquad and the fairies and everything.

In station 5 our new direction was us trying to figure out where our personal news outlets stand on the chart.

In station 3, we discussed how the image can reinforce discrimination for people that already had a racist view on gun violence. 
A new direction we took in station 6 was when we discussed how inaccurately stereotypes are portrayed in movies or film. ]]> 2021-09-15 20:34:51 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743939645 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743939698 I don't remember who said it, but some one said, "Everyone is their own person". I think that something we should keep in mind when we're exposing the single story is that it is down to individuals. We don't really know a person unless you've truly gotten to know them.]]> 2021-09-15 20:34:53 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743939698 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743939774 One good moment from today’s activity was talking about stereotypes and how they have affected us. I had a good discussion in station 4 about how the stereotype that people who are Asian are smart is very harmful. One thing that could change about this activity is station 5, the words were a bit hard to read.]]> 2021-09-15 20:34:56 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743939774 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743940204 Station 4 - We talked about the different stereotypes throughout the world, and how people are affected by them. The cause of the stereotypes, and the end result.]]> 2021-09-15 20:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743940204 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743940537 We had a good conversation about single stories in the Asian community. We talked about how “positive” stereotypes are put onto Asians, but how they are still harmful. They create narrow perspectives, and when they are placed onto Asians others can only view them in that way. This conversation could lead in another direction by talking about how it could benefit Asians.]]> 2021-09-15 20:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743940537 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743940784 We discussed that the more popular news outlets have more power to create bias opinion over people. The news outlets can manipulate people into think certain things they want you to think. Later we discussed possible solutions to the problem and how we can make the news less biased and more factual.]]> 2021-09-15 20:35:34 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743940784 20manysrir https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743941255 we talked about how stereotypes create a narrow perspective about a community, so its important to be open minded about everyone. One example of a stereotype that may seem positive but has negative is the stereotype that all asians are smart.

In one of the stations we talked about how women are not mainly recognized in journalism and appearance is prioritized in a journalism career.]]> 2021-09-15 20:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743941384 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743942106 Our conversation at Station 5 about news sources was interesting because we talked about other news sources and where they would fall on the graph. ]]> 2021-09-15 20:36:23 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743942106 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743942662 Something we talked about in my group was how stereotypes can be good or bad depending on the person, and how stereotypes can help people meet other people that they look like they would get along with and make new friends. Although this can potentially prevent people who would actually be good friends meeting or on the other end, get someone mixed up with the wrong group of people.]]> 2021-09-15 20:36:44 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743942662 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743943132 One good moment that stood out from today's discussion was when we all had different ideas about an oppressed community in the media. One person said how Lord Farquaad made the creatures in Shrek an oppressed community. Another person shared how in Star Wars the light side and the dark side marginalize each other as communities. The last person in our group shared how the socs target the greasers and make them a targeted community in the Outsiders. One new direction this activity could have taken was if I got to be with more people; most people stayed with similar people the entire time and I wish there was a way we could mix up the groups more.]]> 2021-09-15 20:37:03 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743943132 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743943693 We had a good conversation about different examples of marginalized communities in fiction. We came up with Star Wars, when the light are dark side are fighting each other, and Shrek, where Lord Farquaad targeted the creatures. We also thought of The Outsiders, which included the conflict between the greasers and Socs. The greasers were those with lower income, while the Socs were those with higher income. Since they lived next to each other, fights would break out. We could have also expanded the conversation by talking about how popular news sources have divided the nation in a way.]]> 2021-09-15 20:37:23 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743943693 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743944453 A good moment was in station 5 we talked about different news stations and how accurate they are. I thought it was a good moment when the news that I usually watch was one of the most accurate ones.
In station 6 we took the discussion into a new direction of talking about bad examples of marginilized communities in fiction and how it effects the reader.]]> 2021-09-15 20:37:51 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743944453 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743944575 My group went in-depth about political bias and the skew in reporting that leads to biased narratives. I enjoyed when my group switched gears slightly and talked about how people could go about avoiding single stories. Our solution was reading multiple sources wether they be skewed right or left to create an artificial middle ground.]]> 2021-09-15 20:37:56 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743944575 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743945626 One good moment that was discussed was in station 5. On the different news providers/channels, we discussed how different ones are more bias and how they can be more centered towards specific groups of people. We talked about how the different channels towards the bottom would be considered more bias and how the ones towards the middle would be more genuine about real world problems.]]> 2021-09-15 20:38:36 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743945626 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743947203 One good conversation was when we talked about how everyone in a group is penalized from stereotypes. We branched out on station 6 and talked about harmful stereotypes in common T.V. shows people grew up watching.

Also, at station 6, we talked about high school stereotypes, and how growing up we expected high school to have all these different groups, when in reality it's nothing like the movies portrayed. One new direction that this activity took was enlightening everyone on different views of each question. I learned so much more about each topic just by listening to other peoples takes on it. ]]> 2021-09-15 20:41:15 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743949915 5526922_1 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743949983 In station 4, we talked about dangerously narrow single stories and something that got brought up was the idea of people with mental illness being violent which will make people feel ashamed to talk about mental illness.]]> 2021-09-15 20:41:18 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743949983 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743954885 In station 6 we talked a lot about a lot of male authors including more traditional wants and wishes for their female character. A lot of the time young women in male written books are more boy obsessed and want more traditional ideals of life like big families and lots of kids. The single perspectives/ideas that a women's default wants for her future is marriage ignores the capability and chance of individuality.]]> 2021-09-15 20:44:31 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1743954885 https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1744158388 A good moment from the ConverStation activity was when my group and I discussed how a lot of racial stereotypes came from television shows that we watched as children. It was the first time we were introduced to these stereotypes, so we were not aware that they had the potential to become harmful in the future. A new direction that this activity could have taken is that we could have discussed the ways that single stories and stereotypes get passed down and why people accept the narratives to be complete/true. ]]> 2021-09-15 23:19:29 UTC https://padlet.com/hamanatullah/ev5as0huvn5/wish/1744158388
