After watching both the TED talk “The Danger of the Single Story” and the film “God Grew Tired of Us” I definitely noticed the large nature of prejudice and stereotyping of African Americans in our society. Society has made massive improvements since the times of slavery and the stereotypes that have reinforced it. However‚ there still seems that several individuals go uninformed about the lingering stereotypes‚ negative positions‚ and subjugation to Africans and African Americans. It’s also crucial
