Stereotypes Are Too Loud And Talk Fast

Decent Essays
There is no way to avoid stereotypes. Every race has their own opinion about another race and sometimes it is a negative one. Growing up I had always heard that Hispanics are super loud and talk fast. The older I get the more I find this to be true. Like all stereotypes, not every single Hispanics is loud and talks fast. There are some that are quiet and talk at a normal speed. Being loud and talking fast is not a bad thing. At least I do not see it as a negative characteristic. In fact, I have been told I talk too loud and I am not Hispanics. Which bring up another good point, not all stereotypes are subjected to just one race. We always look at stereotypes are as a negative attitude towards are a certain race. In reality, there are positive

    Some students might assume that the Latino and the African American are teacher's pets, and start a fight with them. Other students might assume that the Latino and African American must be slow learners because they get so much attention, and start a fight with them. If they continue to see the same or similar messages acted out, that teacher's behavior could impact students behavior later in life, when working with people who are ethnically different than they are. It is impossible to get rid of stereotypes entirely. The best we can do is become more aware of our own stereotypes.…

My vision for America is to come together as a nation and put an end to discrimination amongst women, differences of religion and how races are stereotyped in our society today.…

    There is nothing wrong with people looking differently and you just can’t judge a person by the way they look.

Wilber ignored these comments knowing that El-Salvador was much more than a “gang turf”.…
