Zarah,
Thank you for sharing your impressions and experiences from this class. You are very detailed in recapping what we covered how it benefited you and why it did.
I had some personal rough spots in some of what we covered in the class as well. Just like you did with ethical morality. I see your point when you say what is and what isn’t ethical cannot be depended on one person’s values and believes. It makes sense to think that way, but at the same time you really can’t make it up on one religion either. There are countless religions amongst humanity with several different gods.
It would be hard to pick on religion in particular to base morality for the rest of all people would you agree?
Melanie

    Reflection On Stereotypes

    Stereotypes are everywhere in the world. Our ridged expectations of a community are sometimes all we know about that certain group. The students had a preconceived idea about the Harvard students being snobby and the Law students thought the students would not take the task seriously. This chapter really hit on many stereotypes throughout the chapter and how powerful it can be when stereotypes are broken. I would never think to take my class on a field trip to a courthouse to participate in a mock trial.…

    Fairness And Negative Stereotypes

    For years now, people have tried to be more “politically correct” in everything they say or do. “Political correctness,” I have observed does not only pose problems for those in the majority but for the minorities as well. While on the surface this seems to be just a way of being considerate and kind to fellow human beings, I believe it is actually hurting society as a whole. When majority members cannot speak candidly, members of under-represented groups also suffer. What it results in is that no one, even the minorities it tries to protect, can discuss their concerns about fairness and fears without falling into the negative stereotypes.…

    Automatic Stereotypes

    Can you think of any real-world contexts in which automatic stereotypes might have a detrimental effect on how whites treats blacks? Some real-world contexts in which automatic stereotypes might have a detrimental effect on the way whites treats blacks would be the police shooting on black men. Stereotyping has lead to some police officers think that black men are all the same thieves and hoodlums. This leads to detrimental effects because a police officer that views back men in this way, changes his behavior to be more aggressive then he might have been with a white person.…

    Stereotypes Affecting Minority Groups

    It is evident that America is a melting pot and always has been a country with diverse groups of people. Due to the increasing racial and ethnic diversity, people are labeled and grouped into categories mainly for convenience and familiarity (Healey & O’Brien, 2015). Over the course of this semester, I have learned numerous terms, concepts, and theories concerning minority groups in the United States. Of those things, the most intriguing and eye opening information that struck a chord inside of me concerned the stereotypes that affect minority groups, in addition to the prejudice and discrimination these group members face. Before this course, I had heard many stereotypes, joked about and ran from them, but it never occurred to me how detrimental…

    Stereotypes: A Fictional Narrative

    A loud growl echoed through the hall of the courthouse, as Persephone stepped off the elevator. With a shake of her head, she sighed. Atleast she knew her client was here. Making her way through the crowd of mingling people in the hallway, she said her hellos. Shaking a few hands before she spotted Colton, leaning up against the far wall.…

I wanted to strut down the runway with the lights beaming in my face and the crowd cheering me on. I dreamed of being the rising starlet in the modeling industry that every agency wanted to sign and every photographer wanted to shoot with.…

    False Stereotypes

    Something else standing in the way from us living in a culture that not only says it abhors rape but that also takes action against it is an unrealistic view of false allegations. It is commonly brought up as a defense that for a variety of reasons and despite it being illegal, women lie about rape frequently. (Harding, 2015) A study at a North-Eastern university found that out of the one-hundred and thirty-six sexual assault cases reported in ten years, only 5.9% of them were recorded as false allegations (Lisak et al., 2010)). As well years of other research supports this claim and points to the prevalence of false allegations being between 2% and 8% the same as found in other crimes.…

    Is Morality Right Or Wrong Essay

    As we think of morality, many questions, such as “what is considered right ?” , and “what is considered wrong?”, come to mind. While many people believe that religion can help us answer these questions, others argue that morality is self- determining and should not relate to religion in any way. When morality and religion are put together, it causes conflicts because one person 's’ morals are not the same as another individuals. One person’s morals can be based off of one religion while others’ morals come from a separate religion, or in some cases, no religion at all.…
