I could relate to the black kid that said when him and friends woulds go to the store he was treated differently then other customers I can relate with that because when me and a group of friends for in a store it upsets me to see the workers following us around watching what were doing when we go in the storei feel very disrespected so we and my friennds always end up leaving even if what we wanted was in the store for half the original price.
ReplyDeleteThe young mong girl was called chinese jap and a slew of racist slurs but i feel that was very wrong even the fact she is mong she isnt what they called her.Their emotions were strong very strong no it didnt touch my heart because i hear this stuff alot.People call me mexican beaner but in all actuallity im white so thats why i can relate to that young woman.
ReplyDeleteA racism is a person that is racist to other people. For example disliking and being mean to someone because of their color. One of the things I remember was when me and my 2 friends when off to buy shoes at the store and the lady was following us around the store and I felt disrespected.
ReplyDeleteI relate to the black kid to i told my store about when i walk in the store and one of the store owners stood at the door until i purcshes my idea, I know that that person was mad because i know i was mad in my situation but i was glad because it tought me somthing that i didnt really think happen because im black i was spy on in a local store in my neightbor hood

ReplyDeleteI could relate to the black kid that that said the incident of whenhe walked in the store ,because when i walked into a 99cent store some chinnese people work there and whenever im walk in there always like on me like if im gonna steal something.
ReplyDeleteThe african american kid was humiliated. it wasnt fair that even after he bought the shirt he got searched. it was embarrising for him because he was the only person in the store that was being watched very closely then gets searched. i can related to this because one time i went into a store and was being watched very closely. And i noticed i was the only one being watched. i felt just the same way , embarrased!
ReplyDeleteI can relatet ot he african american boy that was talking about the siuation he goes through when going into the store. It relates to me because I have noticed whenever African American people going into stores the security and store people tend to have a habit to watch them closely. I think the emotion is like singled out because other races can walk in instead of having to know they are being watched as if they are going to steal something. And i remeber a time when i walked into a store with friends and like the store employees were following us but, trying to act as if they were doing something in our area. But, i think African Americans give themselves a reason to be watched based on the others actions. But, I think they should not be stereotyped because they are not all the same. And personally I think it should be ignored there are more things in life and people have all their own problems to me it is very irrevelant.

ReplyDelete.1!).The Emotions That Thier Experince Evoke Was Sad, Angery,& Embaraced. Beacuse He Was Geting Harrased For Being Black In That Place.

it gave a lil more knolege than i already new.
ReplyDeletei dont have nothing to compare so i wouldnt know what to say
A young girl raise mong was called chinise in a discriminating way and made her feet striped of her calture. i can realate to that beacause i got in to a fight one time beacause some made a raises coment to me and that realy fired me up beacause he made me feel like he was trying to strip my calture.
ReplyDeletelike the nazi think that the white race are supperior than other religions or culture
ReplyDeleteThe mong girl was called a jap and other rasist slurrs and i think that its wrong to sterotype people by the way they look. My expirience was similar because i am a latin american and i was told by a white man if i was illegal or from mexico.
ReplyDeletei could relate to the african american because when i go in a store they are always following me because they think im going to steal something .
ReplyDeletewell they felt like supprise but also humiliate and embarassed well i would of to felt mad and embarassed about something like that! I can related well when i went in to a store at the mall called "CLAIRES" an it was just me an a friend we were just looking around seeing what they got an then i was graving a neckles an then they said u need a baske. i was like no but then they kept just staring at me an her .like if we were goin to come up on that stuff but it was nothing like that! so after that we just left.
ReplyDeletesome of the students or people that have been abused by racism they seem to experience stress and low self esteam and less desire to acomplish their goal's...I have also seen that people that get sterio typed in school they often stop going to school....
ReplyDeletethat every body discriminate there own rase making some one fell bad no marer if him or she is the same rase then you.
ReplyDelete"A Salute to Hispanic Excellence" was about racism towards hispanic students, they were sharing their experiences, for example people calling them taco, burrito, and many other names. The emotions that they experience was that some student felt uncomfortable by people calling them names and sometimes it was their own culture. other students stated that they were hispanics, but not mexicans like others said. A releted event in my life is when i go to any store for example CVS they always look at me or come and check me just because of how I look, mexican and have tatoos.
ReplyDeletespeeking for myself i have not eperienced racism .
ReplyDeleteI feel that some people who do experience this dont pay any attention to what others say about them.
one of the students was talking about how there is a lot of name calling. the emotions they may feel from this is uncompertable, upset, hurt, annoyed, or irritatede. when folkks are racist towards me it usually doesnt effect me but occasionally i do get annoyed.

ReplyDelete1) What type of emotions did their experience evoke? sadness madnest angry agresive hurting Why or Why not? because pepole was hurt becausethey called them names like the black boy they watched him in the store and the pepole wathcghed him and the security guard checked him but didnt check the other pepole.and then wityh the mexican they called the names like taco burrito padro and all that mean stuff. i can relate because i herd pepole bein races special to mexicas sayin stop jumping over the border and go back to mexico
ReplyDeleteThe type of emotions that their experience evoke were when the young girl was called chinese jap it wasnt that nice to a person to be called. An experience that is related to me with them was when they make fun of me but i didnt really pay attention to them i just ignored them.
ReplyDeleteIn the clip What is Racism there was a African American boy who talked about a insident at a store when he got searched by security after buying a shirt. I felt bad for the kid because he got searched even thoe he bought some thing at the store. I can relate to this boy because some times when i step into a store i get looked at like if im going to steal some thing. When I am going to buy some thing there but it doesnt even bother me because I no that im not a thief.
ReplyDeletei guess to me as my perspective one they evoke sadness and sarrow and descrimination and two i guess u say im asian and you make fun of me and that doesnt bother me at all because i dont get mad i get even
ReplyDeletei can relate to the black kid that talks about the store. because evrytime i walk in a liqoure store i got people watching me. that really bothers me because they do that because the way i dress and they dont even know me. i know that alot of people rob those kind of stores, but that doesn't mean they can judge me. also everytime i walk my grandmother to the bank i got security's looking at me like if i was going to do something and i really hate that.
ReplyDeleteI relatee with the black kid because its true just because your hispanic and you go to the store owned by another race besides your own they fallow you around the store and dont get their eye of you they think your going to jack something, with the mong girl shes not even chinese and they call her chinese girl if they want to call her names atleast know her race instead of judging her for what shes not people call me the mexican girl when really they dont know if i aint mexican or mixed or i can be another race get to know what their real race is then judge.
ReplyDeleteI know how that mexican girl feel likes cause in middel school there was this one guy that us to call me name that i didnt like at all
ReplyDeleteI chose a story i can relate to, which would be the african american's experience when he went into a store. He bought a shirt and while walking out a security officer searched him. My expirience didnt quite happen like this but it was some what familiar. When i went to a store with a bunch of my friends i noticed this one person being around us in different locations. Once we got what we had to buy and payed for it at the door that same guy stopped us and asked if he can see our backpacks. Once he was done searching he let us go. I guess he thought we were going to steal something. This guys experience made him feel down. This made him feel like this because he was thought of a thief only because he was black.
ReplyDeleteRacims to me is jugeing someone on how they look or dress or how they act.like for an exmaple how they were saying look at the little chinese girl we should beat her up. she was mad and she was scared and she not even chinese she look like it but she not.I can relate to them by me and my friend were touring the high school and we were on the football felid and we seen a bunch of mexcain and she yelled out look at them bean burrito,and i felt bad cause they were mad
ReplyDeleteI could relate to the black guy who was speaking on how everytime he walks into a store of some sort they think he's up to no good
ReplyDeleteI think that racism is very dumb because you never know how you make someone feel after you bully them because im pretty sure you never think about how it makes them feel. I also think that people should always treat others the way they want to be treated. I personally read the book bullied and it made me start thinking like how would I feel if I bullied someone and they killed their self. Many kids kill their self because others are bullying them. I can relate to those people stories because I got talked about at school because I brought some kool aid to school and they talked about me and they started to crack jokes about it and I didnt think that it was funny at all.
ReplyDeletemy feelings that i feel are bad when i here someone was put down while they were little and they had to listen everyday to bad kids talking about them. the way i was growing up in elementary school i was teased of being chinese becuase of my eyes being slanted but they are normal now and noone really says anything but when they found out that i was mexican and guamanian they weren't trippen
ReplyDeleteI think that that the kids in the video are saynig their emotions to try to show how they feel and to show people that racial should stop because everyone is the were all humans we all have everything thing the same. People shouldent be raciast to other people just because how they look their skin color, wat they and stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteThe Asian girl that first showed up in the video, I understand where she's coming from, because people judge anyone by the way they look. Like I to have been judged just because my skin is brown. For that girl to suffer because she looks Chineese or Japaneese. Or by the way her eyes are. I think that she was really mad but also sad, because she felt really hurt for the way people judged her.
ReplyDeletewhen the black kid walked in the store is a good example of how theres still racism and ive seen it many times before and its crooked but thats the world we live in
ReplyDeleteI guess i can relate to them cause im black and mexica, and white people look at me stupid cause the way i look. I got a little mad for a minute cause they were fucking ignorant. Like when i walk into a store and the follow me everywhere.
ReplyDeleteI was'nt here
ReplyDeleteI can relate to the guy that went to the store and they thought he was gonna steal.
ReplyDeletewhenever i go to the store by my house the owner always looks at the mirrors he has to make sure i dont take anything.
I can totally agree with Tito
ReplyDeleteThe Kids in the video were saying there feelings because there trying to show people how racial can occurred around and it can reflect to anyone. We all humans, well all are the same but in a different way. Just cause we all got different color skin doesnt mean you can treat someone differently. We should all be respected the same way.

ReplyDeleteMyra i agree with you
ReplyDeletethe emotions i got wene they were talking about raisism was sad becouse they were talking about how some people dont like other skin colors. i felt like back in there days there use to be alot of rasism.but now not alot of people are rasist so that pretty awsome.there was one day were this guy calld me the taco girl becouse i work in a taco shop and i calld him a dushbag and seens then he didnt call me taco girl again but i felt preety bad wene he call me the taco girl.
ReplyDeleteWatching the video made me choose on the black guy that had gone inside a store and had employees looking at him like he was no good there. I had something relatec to that when i went to the mall i had pretty much all the employees behind me like body gaurds making me feel like i wasnt welcome there.
ReplyDeleteI liked mayra janets and titos.I liked mayra and janets beacause of course i was their when it happened.But I also lik beacause it took alot for us just to walk out of the store without what we wanted even after we busted a big mission to get to that store. I also liked Titos because when i first met him me and other students thought he was mexican.When i finally met him and got to know i ended up finding out he wasnt mexican and i felt kinda bad. It made me think of the saying "Never judge a book by its cover".
ReplyDeletei could relate to almost all the stotries like everyone says when you go to a store they think that you are gonna come up on something just because the way that you look or the people that you hang around with.
ReplyDeletei can relate to the african american kid, tha reason i say i can relate to him is because i was doin a little christmas shopping recently and i didnt know who i wanted to get a gift for yet. A store worker comes and ask me can i help you with anything i say no im looking right now so i guess she figures i dont have any money so
ReplyDeleteshe tells another worker watch me and the worker she told to watch me was my friend and he told me what she said about me
I could relate to the black kid that that said the incident of whenhe walked in the store ,because when i go to a clothing store the people that work there think im going to runn out with something because there always staring.
ReplyDeleteracism is wrong...nuff said

ReplyDeletei can relate to the african american kid, because that had happen to me. I know how it feels and it doesnt feel good, it sometimes can put people down. I also think racism is not good, because its like you are judging someone without knowing them.
ReplyDeleteracism is wrong and people shouldn't judge people on how they look are because of the color of their skin
ReplyDeleteSalvador C. What type of emotions did their experience evoke? sadness madnest angry agresive hurting ot? because pepole where hurt they where called them names like the black boy they watched him in the store and the pepole wathcghed him and the security guard checked him but didnt check the other pepole.and then wityh the mexican they called the names like taco burrito padro and all that mean stuff. i can relate because i herd pepole bein races special to mexicas sayin stop jumping over the border and go back to mexico
ReplyDeleteRacism to me is when a person try's to judge who you are or what he don't like about you and if he dont or does like the color of your skin or thinks your a gangbanger just because the way you look.
ReplyDeleteashley was very right what they did to that poor kid was messed up and myras its the samething that happened to them happened to the young african american man.its wrong to just assume that someone is stealing because of there race.i feel offended from everything that happened to the kid and even my friends stereotypical stuff like this happens everywhere it just WRONG.
ReplyDeleteTito that was good1
