My next major media revelation from the semester comes from page 436 in HIlliards book where he covers racial and ethnic stereotyping. This topic has always stood out to me because I feel like I've seen so many ads that have some sort of racial or ethnic stereotyping in them. I found it especially interesting that Hilliard claims that this is usually not due to conscious racism but because of insensitivity. While reading over this section of the book the first thing that came into my mind was the skit by Dave Chapelle where he talks about the old Sunny Delight commercials and the ethnic stereotyping involved. I thought it would only be proper to include this skit to show the skit I am referencing.
