This is a presentation I made for Spanish primary students at a bilingual school, learning English. The goal of the presentation was to introduce what stereotypes are and why they are harmful, then connecting that information to the racially charged harm that is happening to people of Asian descent right now (2020) due to coronavirus. This was to get the primary students to question hateful comments and reduce their prejudice.
