This is Paola and Ana and we will be discussing the Ching and Fregoso articles in section on Friday. Here are our questions!
(Ching's article)
1. How can one define Assimilationist Pluralism versus Multiracial Democracy? What are some key differences?
2. The article states that in order to advocate for certain causes, one needs to be aware of power relations. In what ways can this be applied in children's multicultural literature? What are some examples?
(Fregoso's article)
3. Personal narratives bring reality to major issues that one may or may not experience first-hand. How does the movie "Paulina", Cruz Suarez's childhood story, bring reality to violence against women and sexual abuse?
4. What kind of theatrical tactics are employed to give the audience a better connection to the protagonist, Paulina Cruz Suarez?
(Isabel's Lecture)
5. Do you think that the media/Disney has gotten better at portraying diversity? What are some examples of stereotypes still prevalent today? Do they need to be dealt with?
