What is you perception of this Pixar video, what was the message, theme?
I think the theme was Stereotype or bias. Because we can see how the small birds treat the big bird differently just because he does not fit in, they start to mock him and then karma hits them and the blue bird starts mocking them. The message was we should not treat each other different just because of our appearance.
Where do stereotypes come from?
I think stereotypes come from the social groups we create ourselves. It can start from our race, origin and sexual orientation, some people start by perceiving something different and that becomes the way they treat them. Stereotype can become hurt someone morally, were so used to this that we can guess someone's ethnics and even beliefs. A example of stereotypes can be the single stories, If we tell a story about someone even if its true it becomes who they are to society we have caused this by treating each other in a negative way and unconsciously believing these story's instead of investigating ourselves.
What are microaggressions?
Microaggressions can be verbal or nonverbal insults in order to target a person negatively. Even in school people commit microaggressions based on assumptions or things they are told, some even commit this without even knowing. Even if they do not do it with a negative intention it still can hurt other people if someone is being racist unintentionally its still racist . People need to think what they say before opening their mouths we need to be empathetic.
Have microaggressions played out in your life?
Microaggressions has played a negative role in my life. Once i was in school and we had a substitute teacher, we were told we can utilize our phones and talk, me and my friend started talking in Spanish and the substitute teacher yelled at us to stop using our phones while everyone else could. In my opinion this was very uncomfortable students should not be exposed to this type of insults in the school community. Some people live through this everyday and its occurred to me more than once.
What is the difference between explicit and implicit in your life?
In my life i think the term explicit can be a directly insult to someone or even stereotype someone with bad intentions. Implicit can be a unconscious insult or bias to someone. An example of Implicit can be how everyday we stereotype someone without even knowing we do it, An example of Explicit can be how we insult or judge people with a true intention to affect them negatively. During the school year i have been judged by both ways implicit and explicit but i learned to ignore it and not do the same.
