Assignment:

Choose two popular television/streaming programs. Watch the programs with a view towards identifying cultural stereotypes. Some guiding questions could include:

What type of character did you see? (e.g., villain, mother, nerd, teacher)
What words or phrases best describe him or her? (e.g., tough-talking, quiet)
Did the character's actions tell you something about him or her?
How was the character dressed? Did the clothing help to suggest what kind of person this might be?
Is the character unrealistic or true to life?
Is the character a stereotype?

Discussion by comparing some of the cultural stereotypes that are portrayed in popular media with how they are explained in the text, and how they may affect people's perspectives about different cultures. Be sure to include both text support and your own experience/perspective in your response!
