The Forging of a Union: Role of Racism
http://theforgingofaunion.blogspot.com/2012/02/role-of-racism.html
The Forging of a Union. Wednesday, February 15, 2012. Some of you have started on the Role of Racism lesson already. I'm going to try and help you through the first two stereotypes to see if you can get the hang of how this works. First of all a stereotype is when we define or label an entire group based on simplified, generalized, and or exaggerated characteristics. Often times exaggeration is at play. Remember our lesson with the political cartoons? What is the action, what's happening in this song?

The Forging of a Union: January 2012
http://theforgingofaunion.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
The Forging of a Union. Thursday, January 26, 2012. This word keeps coming up in all of my reading in and around the Civil War. Have you noticed it, too? Do you know what it means? I felt I understood it, but when I tried to explain it I had a harder time than I thought I would - a sure sign that I didn't have a really good grasp on the meaning. So. This word has a negative meaning, or at least we use it in a negative way. I don't think it would be a compliment to say, "Your such a great despot! Posted b...
