I thought that the video that we watched in class was very interesting. It was more detailed than reading excerpts that we have been discussing in class. She told her story very clear and she also touched on a lot of topics that I actually talked about in my first short paper. During the video I was sort of comparing my first short paper and her story. In both of them stereotypes were talked about. In my short paper I talked about how after 9/11 a lot of people would start to associate middle eastern people with bombs or terrorist. Even a picture and they would assume things of this nature and this relates directly back to the video we say in class today. She was talking about how that even still happens today with the example of a book that had the title of American Psychopaths I believe. With this title she was talking about how this would actually make some people think that Americans are actually all psychopaths when they really are not. Another example that we discussed in class and that was in the video is the idea of how many TV commercial may portray Africa as a poor continent when in reality there is really a rich side to Africa that is almost never shown on TV or around social media. All of these examples can relate to each other and it is mostly what I was thinking about when I watched this video in class. The general idea of all these stereo types that are falsely created and in reality do not prove anything about any culture, countries, continents or anything like that. In the video she says that people even said that Africa was a country instead of a continent which is something I find very sad.This shows that the people that are creating the stereotypes in the first have no knowledge whatsoever about the continent of Africa. Overall, this was how I felt about the video we watched in class and how it connected to many other experiences in my life, and other ideas discussed in class.
