The White Anglo-Saxon Protestants (WASPs) have been at the top of the social hierarchy ever since they arrived to America in the 1600s. The first wave of immigration consisted of the Germans, Irish and Chinese. The WASPs created a way to measure the success of each immigrant group. They acknowledged four factors of success that would show them whether an immigrant group was successful or not. The first factor of success was how much money an immigrant had when they came to America. The more money they came to America with, the more successful they were. Another factor of an immigrant’s success was how large the group they came with was. The larger the group, the less respect and successful they were. Furthermore, it worried the WASPs because they did not want to lose their power and high-end jobs. A third factor that measured an immigrants’ success was where they located. The further away the immigrants settled from the WASP’s, the more the WASPs respected them. The last factor that determined to the WASPs how successful an immigrant group was, was the stereotypes. Stereotypes were given to immigrant groups who looked different or acted different then the WASPs. The immigrant groups that received harsh stereotypes were not deemed successful. Using these four factors, the WASPs analyzed each immigrant group and determined whether the group was successful or not.…

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.

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.…

If you are Hispanic, you may have heard comments such as, “Wow, you speak so well… You are not like them… You are really smart… OR You are different and they will really like you.” You might even be asked repeatedly where you are from if your first answer is a city or state in the U.S. The take away messages from these simple statements are clear for many of us. You are not acting like those Hispanics who don’t quite behave like the “norm” – which essentially is referring to White Anglo-American. After experiencing a microaggression, you might wonder, “Were are they giving me a compliment or telling me that people from my culture are less than” or “Were they really curious about where I live or were they telling me that I don’t belong – that…

The United States saw massive industrialization, paradigm changing inventions such as electricity, the telephone, and automobile, but also extensive activism in social change and political reform. Walter Lippmann wrote Public Opinion in the twilight of the Progressive Era.

He delves deep into the multifaceted relationship of moral codes with how they relate to stereotypes and the facts.…

Consequently for the Irish, this segregation and general abandonment lead to a stereotype that was published in the newspaper cartoons everyday. The Irish were designated by many in America as a stupid servant race that was angry and alcoholic, bred like rabbits, greedy, and entirely too clannish. Another reason the Irish were ostracized from most of America was for being Catholic. Most Americans at that time viewed Catholics not fit for citizenship because they feared that the Irish would be loyal to the Pope and not their adopted country. (Irish in…
Since my childhood, numerous ignominies were heaped on me because of my religious background. Being a Muslim, I have been given different crockery to eat and drink in few of the Hindu households.They considered me as polluting; I have been rendered as a beef-eater, constantly stereotyped as belonging to a religion of terrorism. Today religion is valued more than human life. The vicious blame game politics is intensified today where even expressing dissent is rendered as anti-national by those who claim to be nationalists and carry out their bloodshed politics in the name of God. They are the ones who have the least knowledge about religion. They fail to comprehend that humanity is the religion one should follow. I ponder over the question that…
