This document discusses several examples that negatively portray black people through racial stereotypes: 1) A 50 Cent album cover shows him holding a gun, reinforcing the stereotype of black people as violent and dangerous. 2) A news article uses words like "murder" when discussing black people and mentions chicken and KFC, stereotyping black people as criminals and liking certain foods. 3) A movie poster depicts two black students cheating to get into an elite college, implying black people are not intelligent enough for such institutions and need to segregate, living only with each other. The students are also shown doing drugs and committing crimes.
