Stuff White People Like

I know that I have not blogged in forever! I have so much to catch up on and I plan on doing that soon! This semester I started the Elementary Program at BYU. I love all of my classes and I am discovering that I truly love teaching and I am receiving a confirmation that it is what I am supposed to do for a career.

So for my Foundations of Multicultural Education class I had to go to this website called stuff white people like and choose one of the articles that I felt like I connected with! I chose an article called picking their own fruit. In the article it talks about how white people want to move out to country and have their own gardens and harvest their own crops but they don't want to do all f the work that is involved.

For my class I have to write a review on the comments that I get for this post so if you can take a few minutes to read the short article and write a comment of your thoughts on the article that would be great! Thank you!

Here are some questions to guide your comments:
Do you think that this a accurate interpretation of white people?
Is it uncomfortable for you to read negative comments or opinions of white people?
Have you ever fallen subject of this stereotype?

Thanks again!

Have a great day! Stay tuned for an amazing catch up post!
