This week I would like to share a video I found named Stand Up/ Stand N Rock #NoDAPL by Taboo. I feel the song fits perfectly with this week’s theme since it talks about how water is life and the injustices that were done to Native Americans and their lands. One has to keep in mind how over the course of time lands have been taken from their rig…[Read more]

This week I wanted to share the lyrics from the song titled Changes by Tupack, who is a famous rapper. The song expresses the injustices that African American people would have to live on a daily and how some issues are related to one another. In the song he mentions the issue on how based on the color of your skin you can tell if you are poor and…[Read more]

This week’s theme is native exclusion and the making of “America’s Best Idea.” I picked this photo from the article “The Forgotten History of ‘Violent Displacement’ That Helped Create The National Parks” because I felt that it emphasized the importance of this week’s theme. The article brought to attention how “[b]ut what’s often left unmentione…[Read more]

This week’s theme has to do with the origins of ethnic studies. The image I picked reminded me a lot about the movie called “precious knowledge” because it talked about how some government officials believed that the Mexican-American class was being racist and mean towards white folks, when that was not the situation. The image shows stude…[Read more]

This week’s theme is mass incarceration and the making of a racial undercaste. This week, I picked two images that I would like to share with the class, which I believe relate to the week’s theme. The first image shows as a little black kid on his bike with training wheels is being stopped by some police officers. I believe the image comes to sho…[Read more]

This week’s theme has to do with the hiphop generation. I first want to point out how some people believe that hiphop is aggressive towards authority just to be disrespectful, but that is not the situation. Hiphop is used towards shedding light to injustices that people of color have gone through or are going through. For example there is the s…[Read more]

This week’s theme has to do with education and segregation. I decided to pick this image showing children doing the pledge of allegiance because it comes to show how they are willing to pledge their loyalty to their country, but their country is not willing to provide them equal opportunities. One’s country should provide everyone equal opp…[Read more]

This week’s theme continues to be segregation. The image I picked for this week’s photo share demonstrates young boys having signs that say they do not want black people at their schools because they wont accept them. This connects to segregation because people were teaching their sons to only like their own color, when they should have lea…[Read more]

This weeks theme is beyond the civil rights movement. This week I would like to share a quote from James Baldwin that speaks about how today’s actions towards people of color haven’t changed as much from the past. The quotes brings to attention how a white person might demand his/her rights and have them granted with a gun, but if a person of col…[Read more]

This weeks theme focuses on leaders during the civil rights movement. The person that I decided to focus on for this theme is Martin Luther King Jr. because he wrote several speeches trying to help people of color be able to gain the social justice they deserved. For example, he wrote the speech titled “Beyound Vietname” which talked about how the…[Read more]

This weeks theme has to do with theorizing race and space. The reason that I picked this picture of Micheal Jackson with the lyrics of Man in the Mirror is because it demonstrates how in order to make a change in the world, one has to start with changing/improving one’s mindset and actions. For example, people of color in the past had to learn h…[Read more]
