ATA3

Assignment Three was based on the evaluation of racism, racial rants, and determining if Michael Richards was being racist in his last comedy show or was he stemming off from hate. I deemed Michael Richards being a racist. His racial rants caused tension amongst the comedy club and many people started to leave. What I learned from this assignment was that racial rants can be very hurtful and can turn into a violent situation. I think this is an important lesson to learn because as a young individual, it is important to recognize when something is wrong and standing up for what is right. For example, when President Trump was running for Presidency, during his campaign and rallies, certain words and acts were racially crude. This caused some tension amongst the audience and has led to certain violent acts within the nation. A personal relevance that ties within this assignment is that I experienced racial slurs at my current workplace. I work in the Member Service Center department and many members can be very rude and disrespectful when things do not go their way. It is a hard job because as an employee, you must always remain professional and handle the situation the best you can. I choose this picture above because it is a representation of how racism is a form of wrongful bullying. I think that if people put more good energy out into the universe, it would be reciprocated back, and the world would be a better place.
