History
For the next discussion assignment, find at least three examples of race in advertising. This can be print, billboards, social media television, etc. – think about the following – as well as other questions – how is race depicted in the ads? Do they overcome stereotypes or reinforce them? What are the meanings associated with the advertisements?
The key is to think about how different forms of media can both reinforce and possibly challenge existing stereotypes and/or create new ones.
Describe the advertisements, what caused you to choose them, and whether you found them to challenge or confirm stereotypes. If possible, provide links for other students to view the advertisement.
