Document Summary
Week 8 lecture #6: thursday march 03, 2016. Target: what"s it"s like to be stigmatized and sted against. The fall out of these stigma defenses. Video: black/white: something to think about (a girl like me) 17 y. o. girl (kiri davis) inspired by the doll test . Black children choose dolls that they like best (black/white) Doll they like best: the white doll. Doll they don"t like: the black doll. Doll that look like them: the black doll. Her test repeated the same results from 50 years ago. Heartbreaking because it seems like those prejudice affect them; how much they"re worth and etc. and they get internalized. 2 heterosexual males, pretended to be gay walked into a gay bar to harass gay men. Picked up matthew and took him away to beat him, tied him up (like jesus) and left him there to die (matthew wasn"t discovered until the next day by a cyclist and die later)
