UCSD Stereotypes and Prejudices Discussion

 

1.   In reflecting on your own stereotypes/prejudices, where do you think you acquired those beliefs and feelings (i.e., family members, peers, media, personal experiences, etc)?  Briefly discuss what you think are the main sources of your stereotypes/prejudices.  

1.  There has been so much attention/discussion in recent months on social injustice/inequity, especially towards the Black community in our country and more recently, towards the Asian community as well.  Have you been keeping up with this discussion?  Are there things that you’ve done personally to educate yourself on this topic or have you witnessed or been a target of these types of injustices/prejudice yourself?
