The Danger of a Single Story

I have 2 topics here. I just need a short answer for each.
Thank you very Much. I will post the instructions.
This assignment asks you to reflect on your experience with a stereotypes, or what Adichie calls “Single Stories.”

Directions: After watching Adichie’s TED Talk, please write a bit about your experience(s) with a single story.  Complete all of the following:

Have you ever been stereotyped? Describe/explain.  (2 points)
Have you ever stereotyped someone else? Describe/explain. (2) points

Now for the second one, I will upload a doc, what is needed. This board gives you the chance to demonstrate your ability to think sociologically about the world by using your knowledge of the CW Mills article.

Do this by writing about how a problem could be caused either by an individual or by social forces.

Demonstrate your knowledge by posting the following three things:

(1) A problem that you may have encountered in your everyday life (anything except “getting a job,” which is the example in the lecture slides).

(2) An explanation of how the same problem you type above could be a trouble: An individual-level cause of the problem from (1) that would result in only one or a few people being affected by the problem.  Make sure to explain how your example results from an individual-level cause and therefore would only affect one or a few people.

(3) An explanation of how the same problem you type above could be an issue: A social/structural cause of the problem from (1) that would result in many people being affected by the problem. Make sure to explain how your example results from an structural cause and therefore would result in many people being affected.

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.
