    What I liked about the film, Ethnic Notions is that it gave me more knowledge on my history with some of the terms that white men used to call people of color. I have heard of some of the terms from previous history courses, but not the word “brute”. I did not know what that word meant until I read the first chapter in Davis, which gave an explanation of what the term meant and where it has come from, along with the film explanations. One thing that I took away from the film was when Barbara said something like, “we demean ourselves as Blacks because now it is imbedded in our psyche. When she brought this up in the documentary I found this to be true because as an African American. I do have conversations and jokes to my friends who might have…

    In America, privileged is something we see every day whether it is gender, sexuality, age, socioeconomics, or religion. Tim Wise documentary on White Privilege discuss inequality of race between blacks and whites. In this paper I will discuss other privilege beside raced that are enjoyed by a preferred category. People of a particular category are in denial of privilege, such as rich people feel people of poverty put themselves in that predicament. Rich people feel there should be no government assistance that includes: public housing, food stamps, federal grants, and Medicare. In America women are paid 79 percent of what men make. I notice that women are chosen more for teaching and secretarial jobs while men get chosen for manual labor jobs.…

    The documentary, "The Divide", was very informative and enlightening. It focused on a specific area in America (Siler City) and the many effects that race has on it. The video focused on Siler City, North Carolina because it has been a hotspot of racial controversy over the years. Many issues have risen in Siler City that are prime examples if not better examples of problems involving race throughout the country. The Mexicans that are immigrating to Siler City are doing so mainly to work and provide a better life for themselves or their families. In Mexico they are not able to work throughout the year because their crops are in seasons. If the Mexicans…

    "The Color Purple" is a very powerful film that tells the story of Celie, a poor black woman living in the old south. The film begins at her childhood and follows her up to old age. She was raped and abused by her father as a young woman and was sent to marry and equally abusive man, Albert. The various people in Celie's household may seem strange in their actions to an outsider. However, if one examines the actions of the characters, their behabiors can be explained, and sometimes justified, by the systems theory, symbolic interactionism and finally, developmental theory.…

    There is a difference between race as socially constructed and race as biologically constructed. Understanding race as a social construct is critical to understanding the capacity of a given race to affect and intersect other domains and aspect of life and the society (Omi & Winant, 2014). A social construct is ontologically subjective in that the continued existence and construction of social constructs depends on social groups as well as their imposition, collective agreement, and acceptance of such constructions (Rutherford, 2017). Race is that regarded as socially constructed since it is ontologically subjective in that it is real in the society and shapes the way individuals see themselves and…

    From the start, there have always seem to been a contrast in differences between the upper white class and the upper black class. Beginning from centuries ago and still to this day, black and white upper class has been through many transformations and been placed into various status groups. These lifestyles that each group were living, were determined by their wealth, education, their occupation, and families background. Past decades there has always been a difference in status between how the upper white class and upper black class stood together. As these parents also wanted to make sure their children were understanding about their past and having many standards to fulfill. Between the black and white upper classes, there have been many assessments about how each group obtained and maintained their living standards.…

    My first argument is, White supremacy indirectly influences social hierarchy. If we revert back to the United State’s presidential history, it is evident as to why white people feel that they are “at the top of the food chain”. “Bonilla-Silva 34” White males make up a vast amount of our government, and as we take this into consideration, we realize that this only fuels a seemingly inextinguishable fire.…

    The film, “White Like me” is presented by author Tim Wise. I believe Tim’s main purpose for this film is to explain how white privilege damages people of color more than society is lead to believe. Also how damaging it can be to white people as well and how racial privilege shapes the lives and outcome of most colored Americans when it comes to institutions such as education, employment, housing, criminal justice, and healthcare.…

    Racial distinctions are –at times –hidden in different forms of media. They may be used to brainwash the audience in a discreet way, enlighten the concept of stereotypes, or even display a situation in which the racial distinction is unintended, yet utilized due to precedence. Racial distinctions are very present and, at times, reasonable. Disney employs these barriers so that the audience recognizes the unfavorable aspects of them. it One instance in which we find racial distinctions are in Disney’s The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride. Given to misadventures and mischief, Kiara, Simba’s young cub, wanders into the forbidden Outlands, the haunt of Scar 's exiled minions, and there she encounters another mischievous cub, Kovu, son of lioness Zira, once a close friend of the late Scar and now the leader of the exiles. Zira plots against Kiara, drawing her son into her scheme. Kovu has divided loyalties as his love for Kiara deepens. Conveyed in the environments, the identities and the physical appearances, these differentiations possess evidence of racial distinctions.…
