This document discusses stereotypes and how Americans perceive different ethnic groups. It notes common stereotypes about Irish, Japanese, Asians, Jewish, Mexicans, British, and Middle Easterners. It then examines why people stereotype, defining stereotypes as commonly held beliefs about social groups. It discusses the fundamental attribution error and how stereotypes are reinforced. It outlines five dimensions of stereotypes: direction (positive or negative), intensity, specificity, consensus, and accuracy. The document concludes that everyone stereotypes as a way to make sense of the world, but we need to remain open to individual differences and refine stereotypes to be more accurate.
Understanding Identity, Intersectionality, Privileges, and Our Role in Commun...Bonner Foundation
This session is intended for participants to critically reflect on different aspects of their identity (race, class, gender, sexual orientation, religious/spiritual affiliation etc.) and the ways in which these aspects intersect with one another. It provides a safe space to recognize areas of vulnerability as well as privileges, and engage in collective meaning-making of these experiences. The session also includes a discussion around historical policies and social contexts, which reflect structural forms of prejudice. At the end, participants share their perspectives on being cognizant of one’s power and privileges and structural forms of prejudice, while working with communities (especially marginalized populations).

AdAge reports that Anheuser-Busch InBev is in talks with agencies about creative for its faux-craft Shock Top brand. The brand clarifies that it is not launching a creative review, as it has not had an agency of record in recent years, and is looking to continue to work outside the AOR model. “What we’re doing right now is simply having a few conversations with leading creative agencies,” Shock Top vice president Jake Kirsch told AdAge in a statement today. “This isn’t a review, as we haven’t had a creative AOR for some time. As we plan for 2017, and beyond, we’re having these conversations as part of our normal course of business. Shock Top is always open to new ideas and discussions with the best and brightest creative minds in the industry.”

Teachers of color are positive role models for all students in breaking down negative stereotypes and preparing students to live and work in a multiracial society. A more diverse teacher workforce can also supplement training in the culturally sensitive
teaching practices most effective with today’s student populations.
In addition to providing social advantages for all students, the racial diversity of the teaching workforce can help to close the
achievement gap, emerging research suggests. Both quantitative and qualitative studies find that teachers of color can improve the school experiences of all students; further, teachers of color contribute to improved academic outcomes while serving as strong role models for students.
One report suggests that, compared with their peers, teachers of color are more likely to (1) have higher expectations of
students of color (as measured by higher numbers of referrals to gifted programs); (2) confront issues of racism; (3) serve as
advocates and cultural brokers; and (4) develop more trusting relationships with students, particularly those with whom they
share a cultural background.
A recent report shows that, despite the critical role that teachers of color can play in helping students of color succeed, every
state has a higher percentage of students of color than teachers of color and the workforce is still overwhelmingly homogenous.
While the focus of this report is on racial diversity, the Department acknowledges that other forms of diversity such as socioeconomic background, gender, sexual orientation, disability status, religion, and multilingualism are also important and should be examined. For example, when considering gender in addition to race, we know that black males make up only 2 percent of the teaching workforce nationwide.
Presentation I prepared for DiversifiED, the inaugural educators of color leadership conference, co-hosted by the Tennessee Educators of Color Alliance and Tennessee State University.
DiversifiED was open to all public school educators, pre-service educators, teacher educators and education advocates with an interest in celebrating the importance of a diverse teacher workforce.
2. How do Americans perceive
other Ethnic Groups?
● Irish are drunks and
have red hair.
● Japanese tourist wear
white tennis shoes
and carry cameras.
● Asians are terrible
drivers.
3. How do Americans perceive
other Ethnic Groups?
● Jewish are misers
and greedy.
● Mexicans are lazy
and illegal
● British are dull and
boring.
4. How do Americans perceive
other Ethnic Groups?
● Middle Easterners
are muslims and
violent.
5. Why do we stereotype?
● We must first
understand the
definition of stereotype.
● Wikipedia states: It is a
commonly held belief
about specific social
groups or types of
individuals.
6. ● But if it's a common belief, why is it primarily
a bad thing?
7. How are Americans Perceived?
● Let's turn the tables for a moment and think
about how Americans are perceived?
● Americans are rich, have no family values nor
morals. Americans are hypocritical and all
their women are promiscuous.
8. Perception of Americans
●

●

●

9. ● We as humans have a need to
categorize things. It helps us to
understand our world.
● To help us understand people,
whether from our own society
or different ethnic or cultural
groups, we focus on similarities
whether it's real or imagined.
This provides an explanation
whether accurate or inaccurate
for behavior.
10. Fundamental Attribution Error
Fundamental Attribution
Error is a form of reasoning
that is common around the
world
● Can possibly occur when either
we or someone else has done
something that needs to be
explained.
● Particularly strong when an
action is seen as negative or
strange.
● We expect and look for
certain things when
something is reinforced in
our minds causing us to
stereotype.
● Stereotypes are not learned
just from personal
experience but also from
family, friends, mass media
and co-workers.
11. Points of Variance
● When speaking of
stereotypes there are
five major
dimensions:
● Direction
● Intensity
● Specificity
● Consensus
● Accuracy
13. Intensity
● The intensity of a stereotype is
based on how strong the belief
and the strength of various
experiences.
One person wrote:
● 99.9% of Americans assume every
Arkansan looks like this
● I don't know how many times I've been
asked by people online if I wear shoes, or
wanted to marry my cousin, and I wasn't
even born in this state. The stereotype
gets so old.
14. Specificity
● Relates to the nature of the
stereotype, whether vague or
specific.
● An example might be a very
loud group.
● Or policeman who visit donut
shops.
15. Consensus
● Within a community,
consensus is how
well a stereotype is
known or accepted.
16. Accuracy
● How accurate the stereotype is when describing the other group.
● There are always exceptions to the rules and can be open to
inaccuracies and misunderstandings.
● From a statistical standpoint, sociotype, which is a specific type of
stereotyping is quite accurate.
17. Stereotyping-The American Way
● Everyone stereotypes, it's the way we make sense of our world.
We tend to group things together and categorize them, and those
turn into stereotypes.
● What we need to remember then is that we need to remain open,
manage stereotypes in productive ways by:
● Making them more accurate
● Keeping them open to refinement
● Allowing for individual differences.
● Stereotyping is our way of understanding and making sense of
differences that are perceived in others.
