Racial Stereotyping Discussion

Over the course of this semester, you will be engaging in four critical reflections. Each of these allows you to reflect on the content you have read and apply it. All critical reflections must use sophisticated, academic arguments. You can incorporate personal experience or examples but it must be related back to key concepts or topics we have discussed and must be supported with ideas from our class. These reflections aim to give you a chance to think critically about this class, how your readings challenge your understandings of the world, what you have learned, and how each week’s content builds or contrasts other weeks.

For your first critical reflection please choose one of the following options:

1) Identify and describe an issue that you believe to be personal in nature. Using your readings and the module notes, please explain what social factors contribute to that issue and describe how this personal issue can, in fact, be seen as a social issue. Feel free to create a chart or diagram to demonstrate your thinking. It is required that you use at least three social factors and thoroughly explain how they contribute to the personal problem you have identified.

2) Review the different ways to measure equality. Construct a response to the following question: Should we focus on equality of opportunity, condition, or outcome? Justify your response and incorporate ideas from the module to support your answer. You must use three specific concepts to support your answer.

3) Provide an example of stereotyping that you see in everyday life. In your explanation, please explain why this is considered stereotyping, what theories that we discussed help support it as a problem in our society, and make recommendation for what would need to happen for this to be eliminated.

All concepts used in your reflection must be clearly defined and incorporated into your analysis.
