What is occurring with stereotypes during adolescence? Middle schoolers give insight on social life in the 21st century.
This week's 8th graders, Ayla, Alexis, John, and Roshann bring in classmates Addison and Amare. The group of teens take on the serious topic of social health stereotypes, in particular racism and other prejudice in their world today. They give their honest thoughts about racist jokes, about hurtful judgement and comments, about food, music, clothing, academics, sports, religion, income, neighborhood, life experience, and more. What does it mean to be “Black” or “White” or “Asian” or “Latino” or other labels and terminology? And what do our teenagers have to deal with growing up within that racial group they get placed into?How did the students do? What are your thoughts on the impact of racial stereotypes on teenage life and beyond?BOOKING & CONTACT 🗞️ Email Newsletter: http://tinyurl.com/LifeIsTheFutureNewsletter🎙️ Partner Program: http://LifeIsTheFuture.com/Partner-Program📲 Teaching insight, blog posts, books, and more: http://LifeIsTheFuture.comRESOURCES
