Racism Meme

I created this meme because my goal is to change people’s view on racism. I want to get people to realize how bad the problem of racism is. This meme is about a guy not caring about racism to changing his mind on it.

Opinions on Racism

I made a video about different opinions on racism. I talked about how I think of the author’s opinions and added on to what they said.

I went online and researched three different websites on different people’s opinions on racism. Then I included the three quotes in my video. I used a voiceover to explain what the quotes mean. I also talked about what I think of the author’s opinion. I found background pictures for my video with the racism theme. This fits in my project because not only did I include my own opinion but I included other authors opinion on racism. I learned that racism affects everyone not just certain ethnicity groups.

Video

To help reach a bigger audience, we have decided to create a video discussing our topic Racism and Police Brutality. We will be surveying people to see how they think of the topic and which ethnicity groups are mostly harmed.

Hatred on racism

This story addresses hate speech and contains offensive language that may upset some readers. The N-word is spelled out several times in this story to detail the hostile work environment alleged in a lawsuit against GM.

This article is very important because it discusses the hatred of racism against blacks by using the N word. This article came out recently so this problem is still happening.
