SOCL214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@angelgrvce yes I definitely think this was a big topic we talked about and it’s sad how nothing has really changed with the system.

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

The main topic that will stick with me from this class would be the school to prison pipeline. I’ve always knew about the topic but never knew the details until now. the main thing from the topic that has stuck with me is the Ted talk at the beginning with Tim and Chuck. #socl214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@WyattRaymond99 yes this is something that I feel will stick with me from the class as well. i always knew it was a problem but never really looked into it too much

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@JackSum53062391 yes this was something that stuck out to me as well, and the black men being incarcerated at a higher rate with harder school punishment also ties into the school to prison pipeline

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

I knew that the US had one of the highest incarceration rates but I never actually knew the number until now. #socl214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@EMU24AP i learned this as well, I know there was a few but I wasn’t expecting it to be as much as it is

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

I found the wait time of an application unbelievable. you can get rejected for the smallest thing and even with a perfect application you still might have to wait years for a response #socl214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@EberleBrent I found this extremely sad as well because some of the people most likely won’t even have enough money to pay for the whole thing

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@juliaiellis same, I felt like he really explained it well. it was simple but very impactful still

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@MarcelC358 yes the effect they had shocks me as well. it’s crazy how it was and that they were actually able to treat people like that

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

I personally loved how the video was made. I feel like it shows the differences in the neighborhoods very clearly #socl214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@MariahMyles4 yes! I didn’t really see it that way at first but I definitely can see it a repayment for all the years

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@m_munger_ these are some of the big points that stuck out to me as well and hopefully the solution becomes a reality

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

I personally never knew about affirmative action until today so this video kind of gave me some new insights and information on a new topic #socl214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@AGiunta71 @RafaelPatience yes! this was a big thing I took from the video as well. the negative effect it has was never a big thought until now

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

I’ve always heard about Asian-Americas being the model minority but I never truly realized how much it affected Asian-Americans until the video #socl214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@JozieSocl214 this was also something that stuck out to me since I never heard of the yellow peril until now

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

I definitely agree with the video that we need to actually talk about privilege and not just straight up ignore it like it’s not real or get so defensive about it #socl214

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@AaliyahRowan I agree, I definitely think if it’s talked about more there would be many different reactions to it and there would be changes in certain things

[Melody @MelodyWarren_]

@its_naenaee same, I never thought people reacted the way they did because of guilt so it was something I learned too
