Entry 3_ Trần Thị Vân Anh

Entry 3_ Trần Thị Vân Anh
Identifying Bias

Item 1:


- Prejudice
- The picture shows a negative judgment about European. It implies that the Portuguese are NOT technical, the Spaniard DO NOT humble, the Brit DO NOT cook well, etc.

Item 2:


- Discrimination
- This ad successfully interprets the message “Don’t be deceived by the appearance”, but there is still an outstanding impression on the audience about racism. The black man was just trying to help other people as he’s usually do. However, the Asian woman gave him a nasty look and deterred him. She immediately isolated the child from the man as if he was someone really bad. Especially, at the end of this ad appears the image of the man turning into the toothpaste. It visualizes human treated as a thing, which somehow degrades or denies black men’s personality and values. In conclusion, this ad contains discrimination against the black men.

Item 3:

Thank you sooo much ^^


- Stereotype
- There was a happy wedding nearby the playground of a little girl with her father. However, suddenly, the groom’s loyalty was then suspected because the little girl intentionally called him father. People suspected the groom because they believed the child. They thought that kids don’t like. They supposed all children to be the most honest without regard to differences between children. It is the fact that not all children do not lie.
