YouTube - NAS HIP HOP IS DEAD IN STORES 12.19 - 0 views

  •  
    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.

      this video shows the black perspective of the black innercity. It almost gives their perspective to why they commit certain crimes or their mentality when doing certain things.

      Equality? Ask yourself? What happened to the fairness and equality? Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity!

YouTube - Offspring Pretty Fly for a White Guy - 0 views

    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.

    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.

    a lot of michael jackson's videos are pretty racially diverse. but then again, his ethnicity/race is questionable too so i don't know if he counts.

    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.

      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.

    I hate mojiti.

    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!
