stereotyping


            Stereotyping is a big problem in American society. People judge each other on their looks, religion, culture, instead of looking on the inside of a person. Everyone feels that they cannot be themselves because they are worried what other people may think of them. We as people judge others based on encounters that have to do with religion, race, and culture. All of us need to learn not to care what others think. They need to just be themselves and if people don't like it,oh well?. Like the saying goesyou can't judge a book by it's cover?.
             I have a friend that is very stereotypic. He thinks all African Americans are lowlives, dirty, disrespectful people. A few years back he had a bad experience at a party. A group of African Americans came up to him and started talking trash to him. They went back and fourth, then things got out of hand and they started fighting. They all got arrested and got a ticket. Ever since then he has disliked that race. He had no problem with them before this incident. Now he can't stand them and is always talking trash. Everyone tries to tell him how foolish he is but he is very stubborn and will not listen to anyone. He is the only one out of our group of friends that is like this. Whenever we go somewhere and our African American friends go, he will stay at home. We just learned to ignore his stupidity and go out and have fun without him. He?ll realize that what he is doing is dumb and not worth the trouble he is putting himself into. .
             Everyone that knows him including myself knows what a truly nice and friendly person he is. He has such a big heart and would do anything for anybody. Deep down he really is not the person he would like everyone to think he is. For some reason he feels he has to act big and bad. You know how every guy feels they need to act. It's like he doesn't want anybody to get over this wall he's built. If his friends or family needed something he would sacrifice the world to help them.
