Hispanic Stereotypes' Effects In Chopin'S "Desiree'S Baby"
How do normalized societal stereotypes impact individual experiences? In the U.S.A. there are many people impacted on normalized societal stereotypes. It’s hard to be a person impacted by societal stereotypes. Can you imagine being impacted? But one of the most missed treated people is Hispanics. Hispanics normalized societal stereotypes impact their experiences due to white culture. White culture impacted Hispanic’s experiences because of the color of their skin, applying for jobs, and little income.
The color of Hispanic's skin impacted their experiences because they get don’t get the same job allowed to white people. Hispanics also get normally at as black people. And sometimes they commit suicide because of how people think of them. Like now in this country Hispanics are getting separated from the family, get sent back to the country. Some white people feel they do not belong in the United States they bring cartels drugs and more violence to the United States. Desiree’s baby relates to this because she had to give up her identity when she gave birth as the baby was black. Also, this relates to Desiree's Baby because she ends up killing herself when she finds out about her identity.
Hispanics applying for a job can be hard. It could be hard for them because their manager might like immigrants working for them. But they do get hired the boss might give them that worst job to do. The boss can even give them low pay by leaving no money to prove to their family. On the job, their co-workers might talk about them, and try to get them fired for nothing. The play Othello best fits this topic because one of Othello workers got mad at him because feel that Othello passed him up for a position. This also relates to this topic because Iago starts rumors about Othello saying he raped Desdemona.
Hispanics with little income can’t prove to their family. Can you imagine with low income? With little income how can they put food on the table for their kid's water to drink, and water use for personal hygiene? They also go into poverty and become poor. Even worse they can end up on the street, or start selling drugs. But if they were to do that the white community will say they bring cartels drugs and more violence to the United States. But how can you say when you don’t give them jobs they can do for good pay. This relates to Desiree's Baby because with the being servants they were paid little to no income.
In conclusion, Hispanics normalized societal stereotypes impact their experiences due to white culture. White culture impacted Hispanic's experiences because of the color of their skin, applying for jobs, and little income. Also, this particular group of people who are impacted by normalized societal stereotypes I picked relates to many stories we read in class.
