This was a cartoon video that I came across but couldn't get it to upload. A quick summary of the video: a little boy was having a birthda party and he had lots of gifts but the funny thing was the gifts came in different packages and colors in which he didn't like any of the colors. Then he finally got to the gift wrap that he like and opened it and and found some pink bunny slippers. So from this I got that you cant judge a gift by its wrapping. you have to look beyond the surface to find that everyone has many special gifts. I think this pertains somewhat to what were are lesrning anout sucg as being biased towards certain groups or things without knowing the whole picture. Many people just take a quick glance and never take the time out to know what is really going on before judging a situation. This is something that can go for any race or sex for overcoming prejudice by anymeans.
I like your observation about needing to know the whole picture - this is so important in many aspects of life.
ReplyDeleteHow do you think we learn to view the whole picture?
By going out and seeing things for outselves. There are many times that people just sit back and listen to others instead of experiencing it for themselves. It would help to educate people on this matter but it all depends on how a person is brought up in society.
