Obituary:
Today we have come to say goodbye to the well known stereotype. Stereotype lived a long life filled with many history making moments. Stereotype had siblings prejudice, discrimination and violence. With it's siblings, they brought to us the Holocaust, racial and sexist remarks, dreadful high school, short lives of many teens, bullies, and it's latest- cyber bullies. Stereotype came to the end of it's road when teens took a stand and stopped judging and started becoming friendly with each other. Condolences can be sent to stereotypes siblings and friends. Stereotype will never be forgotten.


End Note:
This obituary was difficult for me to come up with due to stereotyping having no positive facts. Stereotypes are bad and can lead to something worse. I wrote about prejudice, discrimination and violence being it's siblings because stereotypes has led to just that. From stereotypes, prejudice, discrimination and violence, we received the terrible holocaust, bullies and cyber bullies, and deaths of teens. This subject isn't something to write a nice obituary about, but it gave the point of what stereotyping has brought us and how it has progressed. In Sondra Theidermans article "Stop Stereotyping: Overcome Your Worst Diversity Enemy", she gives tips on how you can stop judging and stereotyping others. I feel if people were to practice these, stereotyping could stop, which is also what I refer to as the end of the road for stereotypes.

End Note:
I chose this picture because it is very stereotypical. You have the typical jock, prep, geek and scene kids that you can find in basically any high school. High school is big on stereotypes, that's why I chose this magazine ad to represent where you can find the perfect stereotypical clothes for whatever stereotype you unfortunately fit into.
