Stereotypes are widely held, but overly simplified common beliefs. There is usually very little basis or truth to the stereotype, but they often prevail through generations anyway. Stereotypes are often used as an excuse to hold hard feelings against a group, or to repress and belittle them. Blacks are not the only group that are victims to stereotypes. Realizing that stereotypes do not actually represent entire groups of people helps you to get to know people for their individual attributes.
Some stereotypes that different groups suffer:
Teenage girls all sit on their cell phones doing nothing but talking about boys.
Young white females cannot make it through a day without yoga pants and a latte.
Women need to have children to be complete.
Native Americans are usually alcoholics.
Spanish men are all romantic and promiscuous.
Asians are all good at math.
Lower income people are usually dirty and illiterate.
Some examples of stereotypes against blacks are:
Lazy
Late all the time
Thieves
Illiterate
Smoke menthol Newports/Weed
Fried Chicken Lovers
Watermelon
Welfare Recipients
Multiple Baby Mammas or Daddies
Drug users/ distributors
