Analysis Of Stereotypes In The Selection, By American Singer

There are numerous individuals and places that are dedicated to the study of feminism, depicting both the bad and the good of the gender variations. The strong and the hardworking women can be appreciated because they have made massive impacts in history. Their impacts offered the women with the opportunities and the privileges that they enjoy today(Cole and Daniel p. 55). Nonetheless, at times, the stereotypes that are more subtle, which the pop culture assigns to the women is incredibly stupid as well as irritating.

During the summer break, I read The Selection by Kiera Cass. In this dystopian novel, America Singer enters to win every girl’s dream, the hand in marriage of Prince Maxon, but at first, all she wants is to be with her secret boyfriend Aspen; she soon realizes the pros and cons of becoming a princess.

Many people use first impressions as a base point to build their opinion of a person. For America Singer that is not the case. In The Selection written by Kiera Cass, thirty-five girls compete to win the heart of Illéa's beloved Prince Maxon Schreave. America Singer who is a five (in the caste system) has a short temper and a fiery attitude almost as fiery as her red hair. America has an undercover relationship with Aspen Leger, who is a six. Aspen forces America into The Selection and breaks up with her leaving her heart completely shattered. After the break-up America leaves to go to The Selection. Prince Maxon was there to pick up the pieces of America's broken heart. All is well until Aspen becomes a palace guard and then America needs to make a decision about who will win her heart in the end and who she will select. Through America, Kiera Cass displays what you may hear about a person and first impressions don’t always reflect a person's true personality.

RaStereotyping is a way of thinking about groups of people. It ignores the differences of the group, while emphasizing its similarity. One belief, that is a stereotype, is that red-haired people are hot tempered. Another belief is that Scottish people are stingy. Such thinking ignores many even-tempered redheads and generous Scottish people. Stereotyping emphasizes many differences between groups while ignoring their similarities to other people. It ignores that many blond and brown-haired people also lose their tempers. Stereotyping overlooks the fact that many American, Brazilians and French people are stingy.

Racial stereotypes more or less affect our perceptions toward race, and judge people in a certain frame unconsciously, as Omi set forth in In Living Color: Race and American Culture. It greatly impact the images of minorities on the visual media, which the most direct medium to reflect the popular beliefs.

"America is the greatest and most powerful country in the world, not just because of our army but because of the values of our people” Obama.

President Truman once said, “America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination, and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand”. These thoughts still hold true today. Being an American means so much more than reciting the pledge of allegiance every morning at school. It is more than just watching fireworks on the fourth of July. So what does being an American truly mean? Although there are many different definitions, it is defined by many people as believing in the idea that no matter your race, gender, religion, or background, everyone is created equal and given the opportunity to live their life without fear of discrimination or oppression.

As a photojournalistic image, this photo is aiming to portrait a kind and helpful African American woman, however, does this photo really “positively” portrait an African American woman?

The sky more ominous than it had ever been engulfed my custom home as I sat still on the caramel brown leather sofa. Each move I made seemed reluctant, because my ears were hungry to hear the adult's conversation. Growing up, I was taught to never listen to "grown folks" conversations, but this particular stone worded syntax couldn't help but be cemented to my ears. After hearing those words, they pierced my heart like Cupid's evil twin's arrow.
