Comment on Rango funny, racist by ksmsw

Danielle – a big part of the problem with racism and racist stereotypes in “children’s” movies (or movies that children will most likely see) IS that it will go over their head. They won’t understand the ideas being presented through the stereotypes and these will be ingrained in their minds and attitudes as reality. After that, they will perpetuate these stereotypes in their own actions and beliefs, allowing them to become further ingrained in society and perpetuating discrimination and oppression against marginalized groups. This is why it is so important to teach our children about the underlying message this movie and other media sources are putting forth about different groups in society. If they don’t understand the reality and the background of oppression and discrimination, they will grow up to accept it and perpetuate stereotypes.

At some point, invariably winners are those who think they’re able to.
It always takes me a lot more than three weeks to organize a fantastic impromptu speech.

Classless @$$hatsi think if a tenth of these rtreads ever worked for a living they would have a small amount of respect for someone who was a giant in an industry that increasingly tried to ignore him, the fact that i read Harvey on rock stations is a testament to his popularity

I have not read the first chetpar yet, but in reading other responses, I am getting the drift. I find myself downhearted on low attendance Sundays and on the other side of the coin I find myself elated when I see a small group of children and youth throw themselves into a service project and really get the point of serving. Better yet, when the small groups are intergenerational! These projects take place outside our walls and generate incredible faith energy. Exploring scenarios that help us see and appreciate new vantage points has great potential. I want to find out more about this.
