So today in class the clip from MSNBC was shown. I'm sure we could have debated and discussed this all class long. Was it racist?? In class I said I thought it was and I stand by that fact. Some thought that just seein one frame of the cartoon was missleading and the whole truth could not be told. BUT if you looked closer with the "historical eye" Dr. Stevos was taking about you could see in this one clip had blantant racism.

• The woman was dark in color.
• The had a forrowed brow.
• She was heavy set.
• She was making demands.

Now, let us think how black woman are potrayed and sterotyped..........
hmmmmm Are they not thought of as heavyset and overbearing, even mean. Some may say no that is not that case. But come on! That is the sterotype! It was there just look.... just think back to how we've seen black woman potrayed.
Just a little something to think about.
