Prejudice is defined as a negative attitude toward people in a group based solely on their membership in that group. It has three components - cognitive, emotional, and behavioral. Stereotypes are generalizations about groups that assign traits to all members. Contact with outgroup members tends to reduce prejudice when it occurs in a context of mutual interdependence, common goals, equal status, and supportive social norms of equality. Discrimination refers to unjustified negative actions toward a group. Prejudice can be measured explicitly through surveys or implicitly through reaction time tests. The cognitive and implicit emotional components of prejudice can operate automatically through stereotypes while the behavioral component involves conscious discrimination.
This document discusses stereotypes and labeling. It begins by explaining that people often make generalizations and comparisons based on their experiences, which can lead to stereotypes. Stereotypes are untrue assumptions about groups that overgeneralize their characteristics. While some generalizations may be necessary, stereotypes are dangerous as they can lead to wrongly judging individuals. The document advocates considering each person as an individual to avoid missing opportunities due to labels. It provides examples of common stereotypes and suggests reflecting more before judging people based on superficial attributes alone. Labeling can negatively impact people's self-perception and segregate society.

Slut Shaming, Victim Blaming and Sexual Harassment on Social Media
This session will discuss the forms of violence against women, and projects that seek to combat such violence that take place in the online world. The talk will discuss rape culture and the forms of harassment that women and youth experience online, from threatening trolls to discourses that blame victims of sexual assault to women in the gaming industry.
We will also look at feminist projects and trends that use social media to educate, rally and combat the harassment experienced both online and offline, including groups like SlutWalk, the Everyday Sexism Project and trends like #YesAllWomen and #BeenRapedNeverReported. Join us as we discuss rape culture’s presence on social media and contemplate methods to change the cultural consciousness.

Social psychology is the scientific study of how people's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are influenced by real or imagined social contexts and other people. It focuses on how people construe or interpret their social environments. Three key aspects of social psychology are discussed:
1) Social influence goes beyond direct persuasion to include more subtle ways people are impacted by social contexts and carry influences of important people with them.
2) Understanding people's construals of situations is more important than the objective situation itself when predicting behaviors. Construals are shaped by motives like self-esteem and accuracy.
3) Social psychology uses experimental methods to systematically test ideas, rather than relying on common sense. It aims to objectively
The document discusses stereotypes, providing definitions and examples. It notes that stereotypes are oversimplified ideas or images about groups that are widely accepted. Examples given include stereotypes about different ethnicities, social classes, religions, and sexes. The document suggests stereotypes arise from a lack of exposure to other groups and from media portrayals. Specific stereotypes listed about Americans, Chinese, and Chinese and American stereotypes of each other are provided to illustrate. Partners are prompted to discuss how stereotypes affect relationships between countries and the importance of looking past stereotypes.
The document discusses the documentary Bowling for Columbine and its examination of the causes of gun violence in America. It explores how the media drives fear and discrimination in American culture. The film questions who is responsible for gun violence and concludes it is not due to gun ownership but the exploitation of violence through the media and government. Fear is intensified by the media and controlled by the government to manipulate society. While gun ownership is a constitutional right, gun control policy remains controversial as it debates this right versus preventing crime.
This document is a speech in support of a bill relating to equal rights for the LGBT community. It discusses the speaker's experience growing up with anti-gay views but having his perspective changed by witnessing anti-gay violence. The speaker argues that being gay is not a choice and that denying equal rights is a civil rights issue, citing several examples of discrimination faced by LGBT individuals. The speaker rejects arguments that legalizing gay marriage will undermine families or influence children, saying diversity and inclusion have always been values in Hawaii. The speech concludes by urging support for the bill so that the people can decide these issues of love and acceptance.

This document provides an overview of social learning theory as it applies to serial killers. It discusses how serial killers often experienced severe childhood abuse, neglect, or trauma which shaped their distorted view that violence is acceptable. This view is then reinforced when serial killers enjoy the fame and attention from extensive media coverage of their crimes, which validates their identity. While nature and nurture both play a role, social learning theory suggests serial killers learn that violence is socially acceptable through these traumatic childhood experiences and seeing their crimes glorified in the media.
Neutralizing bias in your classroom practice: futures conferenceCharles Gordon
The session is about exposing and helping you to neutralize passive, unintended discriminatory practice.
Discriminatory practice should not be seen as the act of individuals who are hostile to a group, or would like to do harm.
-introduce vocabulary
-actions for neutralizing bias
-create a group action plan
A sub-goal of mine is to help you rid yourself of the container myth: There are not two types of personalities…racist and nonracist. What I’m asking you to do is to remove the villain from the story in order for all of us to focus on meaningful social change.
This document summarizes Robert Cialdini's six principles of persuasion: reciprocity, consistency, social validation, liking, authority, and scarcity. It provides background on Cialdini and examples of how each principle can influence human behavior and be used strategically for persuasion.
This document analyzes whether education leads to greater sympathy towards income inequality using data from the General Social Survey. The author finds that college-educated respondents were more likely to disagree with the statement that income differences reflect opportunities, indicating they were more sympathetic to inequality. While controlling for gender, race, and age, college education remained positively associated with sympathy. The author concludes that education may foster values like equality that increase concern for less fortunate groups and their access to resources. However, they note more research is needed due to limitations and the relationship between education and affluence.
The document summarizes a group project on bullying. It includes sections written by different group members on characteristics of bullies and victims, effects of bullying like depression and suicide, and cases of school shootings linked to bullying. It proposes an intervention plan bringing bullies and victims together with activities to build trust and self-esteem. Positive psychology approaches may open new solutions by addressing factors for both groups.
The document summarizes a group project on bullying. It includes sections written by different group members on characteristics of bullies and victims, effects of bullying like depression and suicide, and cases of school shootings linked to bullying. It proposes an intervention plan to build self-esteem in victims and bullies through activities and counseling. Bringing the groups together is intended to show their commonalities and how positive psychology approaches could open new solutions to prevention.
This document discusses stalking and provides information on defining stalking, types of stalkers and victims, laws around stalking, and safety planning for stalking victims. Stalking is defined as unwanted or repeated surveillance that may include following a victim or monitoring them. Types of stalkers include rejected, resentful, intimacy seekers, and predatory stalkers. Victims can be prior intimates, acquaintances, professionals contacted through their work, strangers, or famous individuals. Safety planning is important for stalking victims given the potential danger stalkers may pose.
This playlist includes 7 songs that deal with various social psychology concepts related to stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination such as explicit prejudice, hostile sexism, benevolent sexism, illusory correlation, modern racism, and ways to reduce prejudice. The chapter overview discusses stereotypes, prejudice, discrimination and how they differ, perspectives on intergroup bias including economic, motivational, and cognitive perspectives, the experience of being a member of a stigmatized group, and ways to reduce stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination.
Prejudice and discrimination can take many forms, from subtle to extreme. Prejudice involves unfavorable attitudes toward social groups, while discrimination involves harmful actions directed at those groups. Studies have found discrimination in areas like housing (LaPiere, 1934) and implicit biases in automatic cognition (IAT). Prejudice can be based on attributes such as sex, race, age, sexual orientation, and disability status. It may take overt forms like hate speech or physical attack, or more subtle forms like tokenism or reluctance to help. Discrimination has damaging effects and is illegal in many places, but implicit or unconscious biases still exist and can influence behavior.
This document discusses various topics related to social relations, including prejudice, aggression, attraction, conflict, altruism, and peacemaking. It addresses how prejudice forms and persists over time due to social inequalities and people's tendency to favor their own groups. Aggression is influenced by both biological and psychological factors like genetics, neural activity, biochemistry, and frustration. Attraction between people is shaped by proximity, exposure, reciprocal liking, similarity, association, and physical attractiveness. The document also examines conformity, obedience, and how groups can influence individual behavior and attitudes through social norms, pressure, and polarization.
The document summarizes a research study that examined whether the race of a speaker affects people's perceptions of and agreement with the political arguments being presented. The study hypothesized that a speaker's race would activate racial schemas in participants, causing racial conservatives to agree less with non-white speakers. A survey was conducted where participants read about a proposed motorcycle law attributed to speakers of different races and indicated their agreement. The findings showed little difference in agreement based on speaker race, though racial liberals showed less variation than conservatives. Racial conservatives were more likely to identify as Republican and be older than racial liberals.
Social Media and its Effects on Shaping Self-Esteem and Empowerment among Women of Color
The document discusses a study on the relationship between social media use and self-esteem in women of color. It finds that most women of color experience issues with colorism and body image but have high self-esteem. While social media is often linked to low self-esteem, the study found it can empower women of color by exposing them to stories and hashtags about racial and gender pride. Hashtags like #BlackLivesMatter and #BlackGirlMagic made women feel less alone and more confident in their identities.
1) The document discusses different approaches to ethics, including utilitarianism, rights, virtue, common good, justice, and moral pluralism. It focuses on the justice approach to analyze the ethics of racism.
2) Under the justice approach, racism is clearly unethical because it treats people unequally based solely on skin color. Slavery was an extreme historical example of injustice against people of color.
3) While some claim racism is no longer an issue, it persists in more subtle forms like unequal treatment and white privilege. It is everyone's responsibility to work towards complete equality and justice for all.
The document discusses different types of prejudices including those based on age, religion, ethnicity, appearance, disabilities, race, sex, and economic class. It notes that race is a social construct rather than a scientific one, as genetic variations between human populations are minor. The document asks readers to consider experiences they have had with assumptions, stereotypes, and how they felt they should have been treated in those situations.
This document defines and discusses types of multiple murders, including mass murder. It begins by defining terms like homicide, murder, and different types of multiple murders involving multiple victims over varying time periods and locations. Mass murder specifically involves 4 or more victims killed within a day in one or more related locations. The document then discusses how mass murders are typically portrayed in media versus how they usually occur. Most mass murderers are mentally ill males who kill family or acquaintances, not strangers in public places as often depicted. The document also summarizes biological, psychological, social, and environmental correlates associated with mass murderers and risk factors. It analyzes prevention strategies and discusses typologies that have been developed to categorize different types of mass murderers
This document defines and discusses stereotypes. It notes that stereotypes are oversimplified generalizations about groups of people. They often evolve from a lack of exposure or understanding of other groups. Stereotypes can be implicit or explicit. While stereotypes can help process information efficiently, they can also be unfair and persist despite changes to the groups. The document examines types of stereotypes like ethnic, gender, and positive/negative stereotypes. It explores the differences between stereotypes, attitudes, and prejudices.
Prejudice refers to negative attitudes towards members of social groups. It can be reflected in policies and is often a form of scapegoating. Research suggests prejudice is a personality trait where those prejudiced against one group are often prejudiced against others. Prejudice causes hurt, is unjust, and goes against principles of society. It leads to conflicts and issues between groups.
The document defines prejudice as a judgment formed before considering the facts that puts others at an unjust disadvantage. It discusses how prejudice arises from sources like socialization, competition over resources, and social learning of negative attitudes. Prejudice contains attitudes of favor/disfavor related to overgeneralized beliefs about social groups. The document also outlines steps that can be taken to reduce prejudice, such as direct intergroup contact, recategorization of groups, and cognitive interventions to reduce stereotyping.
This document contains notes from an introductory sociology course taught by Dr. Li-chin Huang. It includes an introduction to sociology concepts like critical thinking, social structures, and sociological perspectives. It also outlines the course topics like foundations of society, social institutions, and social change. Key sociological paradigms and theories are discussed as analytical tools to help students think critically about society. Bloom's taxonomy of learning and methods for developing critical thinking skills are presented.

Ic2s2 Tutorial on Modeling Human Values via Social Media DataISI Foundation
Understanding human values with an empirical approach, both from a qualitative and quantitative point of view, allows us to better model behaviours, actions, and attitudes towards social phenomena. It is invaluable in the design of, for instance, effective health interventions - such as encouraging vaccination- or even appropriate communication campaigns for policy making - such as sensibilization towards pro-environmental attitudes. This is important since public debate on human values often focuses on perceived threats to different values while rarely understanding or articulating how values are inferred from people’s behaviors and judgements. In this tutorial, we give an overview of how the basic human and moral values are interpreted according to the psychological literature, as a combination of individual, societal, and cultural forces. We discuss the latest research in assessing these through both traditional methods, as well as through quantitative methods applied to digital data. In the first part, we provide an overview of traditional survey methods, and discuss their applicability to the new forms of discourse, the validity of recruitment using the Internet and new opportunities this medium holds. In the second part, we consider several case studies of applying computational methods to large amounts of social media data for understanding values associated with specific domains, including politics, health, charitable giving, and privacy, and discuss how social media can capture the behavioral differences in large populations of different values. Here, we introduce methodologies for large scale data analysis including topic discovery, topic refinement, grounded theory labeling, network science, and regression modeling. We conclude with the discussion of ethical use of such modeling, including data and model bias, informed consent, intervention design, and the use of persuasive technology.

The document discusses radar and electronic support measures (ESM) systems. It describes how radar works by transmitting electromagnetic signals that bounce off objects and return, allowing detection and location of targets. ESM systems intercept, analyze, and identify radar signals, displaying parameters like frequency, pulse width, and direction of arrival. The main functions of ESM are accurate bearing measurement and identification of radar signals. It uses amplitude comparison techniques to calculate direction of arrival based on signal strength across receiver channels.

Community colleges and 4-year universities differ in their approach to teaching and learning. Community colleges typically serve a more diverse student population and emphasize open access, with a focus on teaching basic skills and providing affordable paths to career training or bachelor's degree programs. Four-year colleges tend to have more traditional undergraduate populations and place greater emphasis on research in addition to teaching at the upper division level.

This document provides an outline for a course tour on designing e-books. It includes sections on the background, design research, results and assessment, conclusion and discussion, and learning activities. It also shares examples of student e-book projects from the previous semester and provides assessment guidelines including a mini-presentation, peer reviews, and instructor feedback. Useful links are also included for e-book making software.
The document discusses the differences between objective and subjective accounts of beauty and artistic beauty. Objectively, beautiful qualities are thought to be present in the things themselves. Subjectively, beauty exists in the mind of the individual perceiver. The document presents different lenses of aesthetics like formalism, expressionism, and pragmatism. It provides examples of how perceptions of beauty have changed from religion to capitalism and are influenced by socio-cultural and psychological factors.
The document describes an interdisciplinary collaborative project focused on examining the relationship between spirituality and ecological balance. The project involved artists, professors, and scholars from various fields including visual arts, religion, economics, geography, and technology. They worked together to produce a book called "The Wonder of the Tao" which explored these themes through field studies, interviews, and alternative economic models like the "Prairie Model." The collaboration integrated different perspectives to provide critical examination of contemporary issues and seek more sustainable alternatives to the status quo.

11. We can make wrong assumptions about almost anything in life. Sometimes we make mistakes from them, sometimes they misguide us and sometimes we can even use them as an excuse.
They can be misleading or sometimes even irrational. There are assumptions about anything from work ethics, mathematics and even relationships and happiness. Here are fifty of the most
common misassumptions. Perhaps you have heard these or even said some yourself.
Just ignore it the problem will go away.
he person next to me is better off!
I have enough time for exam, I will start studying tomorrow.
I am being perfectly logical and fair and everyone that disagrees with me is just plain stupid.
They have the right to be loved.
Quick to attribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance.
My moral system is the social norm, if you don’t agree with me, something is wrong with you.
Rational persuasions are persuasive.
Being in a relationship gives you the right of ownership of your partner.
Things will work out.
They have sufficient informational for a rational decision.
What is important to them is as important to others.
The grass is greener on the other side.
I can get a partner as long as I’m smart and attractive and friendly.
It will not happen to me. One day, they will be wrong.
There are no lessons to be learned from history.
We all believe to be a bit smarter than somebody else, specially when our ego is involved.
We are free and we can be completely free, in thinking, behavior and actions…
The reward comes later.
I am not appreciated because no one has told me recently.
The harder you chase, the closer you get.
You can balance things by taking revenge.
Having more money can make them happy forever.
Having fun costs money.
I am important and I am right.
Everything happens for a reason.
Finding your true self is an on-going and endless process.
Any assumption made is wrong.
Love is respite to every other problem in life.
If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all.
Society watches you closely on whatever you do.
Good times will eventually come.
If I do this, people will think I am wrong.
All eyes are on you.
We can own something out there.
We all are here to conquer something.
Everyone is having an affair or cheating on their partner.
We are making it up as we go along, some better than others.
People are always completely to blame for their own actions regardless of the situation.
You can fake it to make it, when there is someone else who will readily do it with more talent.
My girlfriend splits up with me. ‘Ah, good thing I didn’t marry her and end up in a divorce.
My wife splits up with me. ‘Ah, good thing we don’t have children yet. Could have been far more stickier.
My wife who I have children with splits up with me. ‘Ah, good thing I’m not too old to remain single for the rest of my life.
Everyone else is paying close attention to everything you do and judging you for it.
They have been perfectly clear, so the onus of understanding is on the listener.

Ideology is a set of shared beliefs within a group, such as a nation or social
class. This body of beliefs influence the way individuals think, act, and view
the world.
Common Ideology Examples
Political Ideologies
Here are some examples:
•Political parties embody a range of ideals covering government, economics, education, healthcare, foreign policy, and more. Some examples
are Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, and the Green Party.
•Classical liberalism is a capitalistic ideology which stands for a limited government with political freedom, civil liberties and laissez-faire
economic policies.
•Social or modern liberalism is liberalism which focuses on social and economic issues while ensuring individual freedom.
•Social democracy advocates a peaceful change from capitalism to socialism with a representative democracy including collective bargaining
and public services.
•Neo-liberalism embodies free trade, privatization, deregulation and laissez-faire economic policies.
•Bolshevism was primarily workers that wanted to establish a dictatorship of the proletariat, the working class.
•Marxism is socialism with the goal of a classless society. Principles include the class struggle, a labor theory of value and a proletariat
dictatorship.
•Leninism focused on a proletariat dictatorship based on Lenin’s theories of government.
•Communism promotes collective ownership of property with one political party controlling social and economic policy.
•Trotskyism advocated a revolution of the working class bringing freedom and democracy.
•Stalinism is an authoritarian ideology with one person having all the power. In Stalinism, political and ideological dissidents are strongly
suppressed.
•Maoism emphasizes the revolutionary power of the peasants and was the interpretation of Marxist and Lenin theories by Mao Zedong.
Cultural and Social Ideologies
Here are some examples:
•Concentration on the environment and green practices has led to an ecological ideology including green economics.
•Racism places the blame for certain social conditions on one or more races of people. This can lead to division among races and racial
prejudice and discrimination.
•Feminism advocates equality for women economically, socially and politically. It also deals with the rights of women, including reproductive
rights.
•Gender ideology is concerned with the attitudes of men and women on their place in society, their rights and responsibilities.
•Individualism deals with inherent worth of each individual and focuses on self-sufficiency and freedom.
•Anti-intellectualism includes the attitudes of people who let the government tell them how to view the world rather than become informed
themselves of the government’s policies. This gives the government more control since the people believe its propaganda.
23. list of ideologies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_political_ideologies
This is a list of political ideologies.
Many political parties base their political action and election program on an ideology.
In social studies, a political ideology is a certain set of ethical ideals,
principles, doctrines, myths or symbols of a social movement, institution, class,
and/or large group that explains how society should work, and offers some political
and cultural blueprint for a certain social order. A political ideology largely concerns
itself with how to allocate power and to what ends it should be used. Some parties
follow a certain ideology very closely, while others may take broad inspiration from a
group of related ideologies without specifically embracing any one of them. The
popularity of an ideology is in part due to the influence of moral entrepreneurs, who
sometimes act in their own interests.
Political ideologies have two dimensions:
Goals: How society should be organized.
Methods: The most appropriate way to achieve this goal.
An ideology is a collection of ideas. Typically, each ideology contains certain ideas
on what it considers to be the best form of government (e.g. democracy, autocracy,
etc.), and the best economic system (e.g. capitalism, socialism, etc.). Sometimes
the same word is used to identify both an ideology and one of its main ideas. For
instance, "socialism" may refer to an economic system, or it may refer to an
ideology which supports that economic system.
Political ideology is a term fraught with problems, having been called "the most
elusive concept in the whole of social science";[1] however, ideologies tend to

25. A real life story for pondering:
God Makes Me a Slave
In class activity
Fatima Mint Mamadou is a young woman living in North Africa’s Republic of
Mauritania.
She has no idea what she was born. All she knows is tending camels, herding
sheep, hauling bags of water, sweeping, and serving tea to her owners.
This young woman is one of perhaps 90,000 slaves in Mauritania. In the
central region of this country, having dark brown skin almost means being
a slave to an Arab owner. She always accepted her situation. She has
known nothing else.
She explains in a matter-of-fact voice that she is a slave, as was her mother
before and her grandmother before that. “Just as God created a camel to
be a camel, “ she shrugs, “he created me to be a slave.”
In this region, slavery began 500 years ago, abut the time Columbus sailed to
the new World. As Arab and Berber tribes moved across the continent,
they raided local villages and made slaves of the people. In 1905 the
French colonial rulers of Mauritania banned slavery. After the nation
gained independence in 1961, the strong traditions still exist. People like
Fatima have no idea what freedom to choose means.
The next question is more personal:” Are you and other girls ever raped?”
Again Fatima hesitates. With no hint of emotion, she responds," of course,
in the night the men come to breed us. Is that what you mean by rape?”
27. Review the concept of Ideology
The concept of ideology originated with
the work of Marx and Engels, particularly
in The German Ideology (1846).
Ideology can be defined as a widely
shared belief or idea that has been
constructed and disseminated by the
powerful, reflects their experiences, and
functions for their benefit.
Ideologies are anchored in the
experiences of their creators, thus
offering a partial view of the world. They
are presented as being universally valid
and are “produced by specifiable,
complex social conditions.”
Karl Marx
Friedrich Engels
28. Terms- Hegemonic or ruling ideology
- An ideology that so dominates
a culture as to become the
prevailing and unquestioned
belief is described in the 1920s
by Antonio Gramsci as
hegemonic or ruling ideology.
As Gramsci pointed out,
hegemonic ideologies often take
the form of commonsense beliefs
and are especially embodied in
stereotypes and natural law
language.

30. Hegemony: When socially powerful people use their
influence to convince less powerful people it is in their best
interest to do what is actually in the most powerful people's
best interest, that's hegemony.
Ideological hegemony (false consciousness) arises in a situation
where a particular ideology is pervasively reflected
throughout a society in all principal social institutions and
permeates cultural ideas and social relationships.
IT is a system of thought control. Ideology is a linked set of
ideas and beliefs that act to uphold and justify an existing
or desired arrangement of power, authority, wealth and
status in a society.

32. Terms - Natural Law Language
The word “natural” usually implies that something is
inevitable, predetermined, or outside human control; and is
often used in the same way as human nature and instinct.
Consequences of using natural law language are
threefolds:
(1) in its equation of natural with inevitable, it ends
discussion;
(2) it treats behavior as predetermined, and thereby
overlooks the actual cultural and historical variation of
human societies;
(3)and it treats individuals as passive, lacking an interest
in or control over social life.
Natural-law language, which is used to convey hegemonic
ideas, tells us not to question the world around us. In this
sense it creates and maintains ideas about difference.

Stereotype
A stereotype is a prediction that “members of a
group will behave in a certain way.”
Stereotypes explain life outcomes by attributing
some essential, shared quality to all those in the
same category.
Stereotypes persist despite evidence to the
contrary because they are not formulated in a
way that is testable or falsifiable.
Stereotypes differ from descriptions because
descriptions offer no prediction.
Stereotypes deny the reality of historical and
cultural variation.

43. Cases of Stereotyping
Stereotyping and Asian-Americans
Asian-Americans are often depicted as the
“model minority” in comparison to African-
Americans.
Stereotypes about model minorities mask
economic, educational, and occupational
heterogeneity among Asian-Americans.
In American culture, stereotypes are often
driven by the necessity to explain why some
categories of people succeed more than
others.
44. Stereotyping and Asian-Americans
American immigration policy explains the misguided
nature of the comparison between African and Asian
minorities.
In 1965, Congress replaced the national-origin
quotas, which had been in place since 1921, with an
annual 20,000-person limit per nation regardless of
its size. Preference went to those with relatives in
the U.S. and then to those with occupational
skills needed in America. Those immigrating to the
U.S. since 1965, therefore, have had high
educational and occupational profiles.
45. Cases of Stereotyping
Stereotyping and Asian-Americans
The high Asian-American educational and
occupational profile has yielded the country’s
highest median household income, but not its
highest individual income.
Despite a higher educational profile, Asian-
Americans per capita income lags behind that
of non-Hispanic whites (Census Bureau 2000).
The circumstances of arrival and resettlement for
Asians who have fled their home countries make
the refugee population exceedingly
heterogeneous and quite different from those
others who have immigrated to the U.S.
46. Cases of Stereotyping
Stereotyping and African-Americans
African-Americans (and other people of color)
are likely to understand discrimination as
institutionally based, while whites attribute it
to isolated events or individuals.
Although whites recognize that discrimination
plays some part in higher rates of
unemployment and poverty, etc., the central
cause is usually understood to be the level of
effort and cultural patterns of the minority
groups themselves.
47. Cases of Stereotyping
Stereotyping and African-Americans
Alongside an increased commitment to
equality and integration, research reveals a
persistence in negative stereotypes about
blacks among whites, which effect
everything from support of social policies
to interpersonal interactions.
Whites continue to be more fearful of a
black stranger than a white stranger.
Whites and blacks disagree about the
extent of discrimination.

50. Social Institutions and
the Support of Ideologies
During the late 19th and early 20th
centuries, social institutions (i.e. the
established mechanisms by which
societies meet their predictable needs,
such as economy, government, family,
religion, education, health care, and mass
media etc.) offered explanations of what
differences in race, class, sex, and sexual
orientation meant.
Ideology supported by social institutions,
in this book focusing on Science and
Popular Culture.
51. A real life story for pondering:
God Makes Me a Slave
In class activity
Fatima Mint Mamadou is a young woman living in North Africa’s Republic of
Mauritania.
She has no idea what she was born. All she knows is tending camels, herding
sheep, hauling bags of water, sweeping, and serving tea to her owners.
This young woman is one of perhaps 90,000 slaves in Mauritania. In the
central region of this country, having dark brown skin almost means being
a slave to an Arab owner. She always accepted her situation. She has
known nothing else.
She explains in a matter-of-fact voice that she is a slave, as was her mother
before and her grandmother before that. “Just as God created a camel to
be a camel, “ she shrugs, “he created me to be a slave.”
In this region, slavery began 500 years ago, abut the time Columbus sailed to
the new World. As Arab and Berber tribes moved across the continent,
they raided local villages and made slaves of the people. In 1905 the
French colonial rulers of Mauritania banned slavery. After the nation
gained independence in 1961, the strong traditions still exist. People like
Fatima have no idea what freedom to choose means.
The next question is more personal:” Are you and other girls ever raped?”
Again Fatima hesitates. With no hint of emotion, she responds," of course,
in the night the men come to breed us. Is that what you mean by rape?”
52. Terms - Original Darwinism
The “nature vs. nurture” debate
offered 2 ways to explain human
variation.
Explanations from the
nature side were biologically driven.
Explanations from the
nurture side argued that human
diversity resulted from historical,
environmental and cultural
difference.
The discussion of the meaning of
human difference always assumed
that people could be ranked as to
their worth.
The need to explain the
meaning of human
difference emerged
when 15th century
Europeans
encountered previously
unknown regions and
peoples.
53. Terms:
Social Darwinism continued
In its broadest terms, Darwin’s
conclusions regarding:
(1) Evolutionary change challenged
“traditional, Christian belief in a single
episode of creation of a static, perfect
and unchanging world,”
(2) and implied that all humans share a
common ancestry.
Darwin’s work coincided with the rise of
social thinker Herbert Spencer’s concept of
“survival of the fittest.”
Charles Darwin shifted the weight
of popular and scholarly opinions
toward the nature side of the
equation with the publication of
The Origin of the Species (1859)
and The Descent of Man (1871).
54. Classroom activities:

55. Terms: Social Darwinism
Through Social Darwinism the prevailing social hierarchies could
be attributed to natural processes and justified as inherent
differences among categories of people. Thus, the ideology of
Social Darwinism was used to justify slavery, colonialism,
Capitalism, immigration quotas, the criminalization of
homosexuality, the forced relocation of Native Americans, and the
legal subordination of women
Spencer’s position, called social Darwinism, argued
that those who were superior naturally rose to the top
of the stratification ladder. He argued that the
specialization of tasks (the division of labor) was the
outcome of biologically mandated evolution; and the
sexual division of labor “was a product of the organic
law of progress.”
56. Terms - Social Darwinism-continued
When the question of human difference was being
posed during the 1800s, it was in the context of many
historical changes, including:
the Indian Removal Act of 1830
the 1848 signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
ending the Mexican-American War
the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act
the debates over slavery and women’s suffrage
the influx of poor and working-class immigrants
from Southern and Eastern Europe
the much publicized trial of Oscar Wilde,
who was sentenced 2 years in prison for
homosexuality (Kinsey report)
57. How Social Darwinism was used to
justify social inequality
Thus, the ideology of Social Darwinism was used to
justify slavery, colonialism, immigration quotas, the
criminalization of homosexuality, the forced
relocation of Native Americans, and the legal
subordination of women.
Homosexuality was seen as the product of
“hereditary weakness.”
The concept of the survival of the fittest supported
the belief that whites were superior to all people of
color.
In 1873 biologist Edward Clarke argued that the
physical energy education required would
endanger women’s reproductive ability (an idea
first put forth by Spencer)
58. How Social Darwinism was used to
justify social inequality
In the 1840s, scientists Louis Agassiz and
Samuel Morton theorized that there were
biological differences among different races.
Eventually, Social Darwinism,
lacking a socially or historically grounded
explanation for social stratification,
was discredited.
The scientific defense of immutable hierarchy was
eroded by the steady accumulation of contradictory
evidence, much of which was produced by scholars of
color who had formerly been denied access to higher
education.
In the 1920s, the meaning of race was challenged by
increased interracial contact as a result of events such
as the Great Migration and the Harlem Renaissance.
59. How Popular Culture
convey and support ideology
3 primary characters of the minstrel show
were the happy slave, Zip Coon, and the
mammy.
The “happy slave” gave the impression that
blacks held in slavery were contented and cared
for.
“Zip Coon” was a free black man characterized
by laughable attempts to emulate whites.
“Mammy” was depicted as large, unattractive,
unthreatening, and contented, fulfilled by her work
with her white family.
These characters hid the reality of slavery.
60. How Popular Culture
convey and support ideology
Minstrel shows offered an ideology about
slavery constructed by and in the interests of
those with power.
Minstrel shows legitimized the status quo.
Within popular culture, the publication of
numerous slave narratives countered the
ideology conveyed through minstrel shows.
Countering the images of the minstrel show,
slave narratives provided whites with the first
opportunity to see a shared humanity between
themselves and the enslaved.

Popular culture (the forms of entertainment
available for mass consumption) conveys
ideologies about difference and social
stratification.
At the same time social Darwinism gained
popularity, minstrel shows, which offered a
defense of slavery, were first organized in the
United States.
Minstrel shows wiki were musical variety shows in
which white males in “blackface” ridiculed
blacks, abolitionism, and women’s suffrage.
3 primary characters of the minstrel show were
the happy slave, Zip Coon, and the mammy.

Jim Crow Laws: The Jim Crow laws were state and local laws in the
United States enacted between 1876 and 1965. They mandated de jure
racial segregation in all public facilities, with a supposedly "separate but
equal" status for black Americans. In reality, this led to treatment and
accommodations that were usually inferior to those provided for white
Americans, systematizing a number of economic, educational and social
disadvantages. De jure segregation mainly applied to the Southern
United States. Northern segregation was generally de facto, from blacks
predominately living in urban ghettos.

69. The phrase "Jim Crow Law" first appeared in 1904
according to the Dictionary of American English, although
there is some evidence of earlier usage.The origin of the
phrase "Jim Crow" has often been attributed to "Jump
Jim Crow", a song-and-dance caricature of negroes
performed by white actor Thomas D. Rice in blackface,
which first surfaced in 1832 and was used to satirize
Andrew Jackson's populist policies. As a result of Rice's
fame, "Jim Crow" had become a pejorative expression
meaning "Negro" by 1838 and when the laws of racial
segregation – directed against blacks – were enacted at
the end of the nineteenth century they became known as
Jim Crow laws
70. I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings
The free bird leaps on the back of the wind
and floats downstream
till the current ends and dips his wings
in the orange sun rays and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage
can seldom see through his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied, so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings
with fearful trill of the things unknown
but longed for still and his tune is heard
on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom
The free bird thinks of another breeze
an the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn
and he names the sky his own.
But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown
but longed for still and his tune is heard
on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom.
