Do children still stereotype other ethnic groups? Hell yeah they still do. It is just not as bad as it was in the 1950's because in today's society it is more normal to see children hanging out with children of other ethnic backgrounds. But children still do learn stereotypes about minorities in many other ways including peers, parents, media, family, and other authorities.
For example when I was a kid I watched the movie White Man Can’t Jump and I automatically assumed that all white man couldn’t jump just because of the movie.
Children stereotyping other ethnic groups comes natural through influences just as well as it does in adults. Everybody has some type of stereotype about other ethnic groups or cultures. But it is up to us to teach the children the dangers of stereotyping and why it is wrong to be judgmental. For more info and steps on this blog read into my next blog called teaching the children racial tolerance.

One thing I think you'll want to do is break this entry down. Again, you're talking about a lot of things here. Maybe each idea can get its own entry.
ReplyDeleteYou'll also want to add some visual component to the blog.
I really like that you're revising the writing significantly. It feels "bloggy." But I wonder if sometimes you don't go a little too far. Who is your audience?
You definitely have the right idea, though.
