    This video is good, it's kind of antithetical to my video, which is a good thing. The ironic part is (at least in my opinion) the beat is not as catchy as the one in my song, but they lyrics are way better. They seem to acknowledge the values of my song as expose the negativity of them, especially in the one part where one of the guys says "whatever happened to the values of humanity", i.e. suggesting that they have been pushed to the wayside in favor of money and materialism.

      Here is a video that talks about racism for the jewish people. some interesting lyrics are: "We've been traveling from state to state... ...3,000 years with no place to be And they want me to give up my milk and honey Don't you see, it's not about the land or the sea Not the country but the dwelling of his majesty" He is saying that the land is important to the jewish people for more reasons than just the land or the water. "Burn in the oven in this century And the gas tried to choke, but it couldn't choke me... ...Erase the demons out of our memory Change your name and your identity Afraid of the truth and our dark history Why is everybody always chasing we Cut off the roots of your family tree Don't you know that's not the way to be" Here he is saying that it takes more to be strong than just erasing the horrible past of the jewish people in israel, and also the present.

6 american disturbing group hate jena national party socialist workers

    I gathered from google search that this is a website for the American National Socialist Workers Party.
    Soon after news of the Jena 6 broke they had numerous racist and grotesque articles in support of the action and charges the youths face. The later went on to talk about hatred toward Jews, "kidnap famous Jews".
    Just another reminder that racism and racial conflict is very much alive and organized, even if it doesn't rare its ugly head frequently.
    The site is currently "down" and as such their ellaborative website has been degraded to predominantly a body of text.

    lol yea mojiti is kind of difficult to use. I like the selection. It raises several questions about race. The biggest thing for me was trying o decipher the different messges the group was trying to send. Should people feel bad for the individuals in situations similar to the girl in the video? Is her socioeconomic status being presented as a hindrance or a crutch? As te song progresses, the emphasis shifts towards the latter.

    This is a really good video full of racial stereotypes, mainly negative ones about Blacks. I like how the song presents the problem/situation, provides possible ways to improve the situation, and makes it a little more hopeful. You might also want to consider how the attire, attitude, and location of the singers contribute to the message being sent. Are they examples of people who have successfully escaped that lifestyle? Are they examples of how other people can help those in this type of horrible situation? Good job though!

    -rebutts Sullivan's article by pretty much telling the situation as it is -- how there still is prejudice in the world and how race is completely tied into it.

    There is so much to work with in this video! I think you really got most of it though. I wonder if you could even work in colorblind theory since this guy is oblivious to what everyone else (particularly minorities) think of him. That would be a rather interesting spin...

    The White guy is on a quest to act like the stereotypical Black male. His clothes and accessories are very stereotypical of Blacks, including bling, baggy clothes, and a backwards hat. He throws up gang signs and has hydraulics on his convertible. The girls in the video are represented in a sexual manner and most are either Black or Latina. Blacks are suggested to be great at break dancing while Whites can't dance. Overall, it is conveyed that Whites are just not as cool as Blacks.

  • In other words, the less diverse your community, the more likely you are to trust the people in it who are different from you. The flip side is also true: The more ethnically diverse the people you live around, the less you trust them
  • . It turns out that in the most diverse places in the country, Americans tend to distrust everyone, those who do look like them and those who don't.
  • it does suggest that simply celebrating it and promoting it is not going to help us get along.

    This article reveals the negative consequences of diversity. Areas that are more diverse tend to distruss other races more than the areas that are less diverse. Furthermore, areas with numerous different races tend to distruss everybody including there own race. Thus, celebrating diversity only increases segregation and helps widen racial gaps.

    In this music video both the homeless people are black. Also, the police are all white. Moreover, the black rappers portray themselves in a "ghetto" and as the originators/leaders of hip hop. The hip hop wanted pictures are all of black men.

    I just this video because I assume most people will try to find a rap video that has an interesting representation of African Americans. When thinking about other races I could try finding videos about, I remember a video my friend had shown my a long time ago, and thus, chose to post this. As the title would suggst, this video is very pro Asian, and pretty much says White people will never be as good as them and/or accept their culture.

    This video portrays blacks negatively.  The males are portrayed as misogynists, and the females don't seem to mind.  Also, bandanas are carried around or held at the waist, which is reflective of gang violence.  This video may also be seen as reaffirming blacks as oversexed.

    Danity kane is a group that was PUT TOGETHER and it has a bunch of racially diverse girls. same with the spice girls. i don't think there are many other groups that are diverse if they put themselves together.
