Mexican Stereotypes
When people say or think of a distorted image or idea by a person’s race, sex, or religion; we will think that whatever the person said is wrong.

    What Are Stereotypes During Ww2

    During the 1940’s, after the Japanese bombing on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese were called traitors and Asians of all race were stereotyped because everyone seemed to think that they all look alike. Even if they were not in internment camps like the Japanese, they were still thought to be evil. Even now, they are still stereotyped, even for different reasons. It’s unfair that for all these years, Asians are stereotyped into smart people who eat rice and have extremely strict parents. However, it’s not just Asians that are stereotypes.…

    What Are The Usa-Mexico Border Stereotypes

    The United States-Mexico border has always been viewed as a location or space of immense chaos, often a place for criminal stories, where families are separated, where social imaginaries and representations can be constructed. This is the image often portrayed through social media, reinforcing and creating such border stereotypes (Iglesias-Prieto, “Border Representations” 186–87). In spaces like these, individuals, more specifically, children, create perceptions and social representations, as they experience the impact of the border settings. Social representations are ways of viewing the world and because social representations function as powerful interpretations of reality and guide actions, it is important to understand the extent to which the U.S.-Mexico border is significant in children’s social representations of themselves and others (Moscovici).…

    Is wanting a suitable future a crime? Doesn’t everyone deserve to constantly improve themselves? Further, wouldn’t it be more civilized if we could try to comprehend the reason of an immigrant's for leaving their hometown, rather than chastise and belittle them? Moreover, throughout the decades of American History, not only did US Citizens were tried to tie up the immigrants from migrating in the nation.
