Boys and Girls House on Mango Street

The boys and girls are very different socially in reality than in the way that the book depicts. In the book, they cannot socialize at all, they don’t hang out, and they do not talk to each other. So it’s just the boys with the boys, and the girls with the girls. While it is like that in the book, the truth of today’s society is immensely different. For example, there are many guys who are friends with girls, and girls that hang out with boys. In my opinion, how boys and girls “Live in separate worlds,” is when they do not interact in anyway publicly. They aren’t friends with one of the opposite sex, and they do not socialize with each other. This is how I see that boys and girls are different in the society in the book, The House on Mango Street.   

How race and culture plays in media

So here are some examples of race and culture that have played roles in the media. This article is from NBCNews.com, "Town leaders sorry for handling of 1944 rape case." The black and white leaders from the rural southwest Alabama community apologized to relatives of a black woman who was raped in 1944 by a gang of white men. The men involved escaped prosecution because of police bungling and racism. This was a big case of racism towards African Americans. An example of culture can be seen by looking to the French. You can do this because nobody takes culture more seriously than the French. They subsidize it generously. French media give it vast amounts of airtime, and the French radio station play about it constantly. The French use the media majorly to broadcast their culture within their country. Another example of race in media or the lack of racism is the magazine "Sports Illustrated." This magazine is one of the most diverse and least racist magazines out there. This magazine is more diverse than most other magazines because they cover sports throughout the entire world. Also they cover all of the sports, so it's not just women or men, its all gender's and all race's. Race and culture can play major rles in media, or can just be extremely obvious.
