CHOICE 2:

Watch these two brief comedy show interviews. 

The first is a Daily Show Interview by two mixed-race men (they talk specifically about this):

Bubba Wallace – The Noose Incident & Bringing BLM Into NASCAR | The Daily Social Distancing Show

The backlash of the noose incident was that Mr. Wallace (and Black people in general?) are over-reacting. Listen to story from the actual person who experienced it. 

Then watch this comedy interview between two white men discussing race and racism:

Jon Stewart: The New Deal And GI Bill Explicitly Excluded Black People

Answer the following questions:

1. Choose one of the media theories (presented in lecture) and apply it to these two interviews. How do media add to or take away from race equality and racism? Did you see a difference between these interviews becausethe race of the speakers were different?

2. What does it mean that these comedy shows are getting serious about race and racism? How does this content compare to news reports?

3. Of all of the lecture content, what did you enjoy the most or learn from the most? What other content would you like to have learned more about in this course?
