I enjoy creating beautiful and meaningful content for others.

@OliviaStoneou I agree. I usually have a hard time staying focus on superhero movies because of their length, so it was cool to learn about them. #rgcmtalkback20

@GuinnKailey I really like how independent she seemed when I was younger. She could solve her own problems without having to call a man. #rgcmtalkback20

@YoungWilli3 I agree so much. Women can be more sizes now, but there is still a larger preference towards smaller women. #rgcmtalkback20

@hayley_neels Nellie Bly was such a groundbreaking woman. It's crazy to think how far she went for her stories like how she travelled the world in 72 days. #rgcmtalkback20

@hayley_neels This is such a good rule that more people need to follow. Many people will stop listening when they cannot relate to an experience when in reality they need to be listening more. #rgcmtalkback20

@alli_crampton I agree so much. this stuff is so important that it should be taught to kids in elementary or middle school. Sadly though, #HB1775 will prevent that.

@RandallSweet5 @alli_crampton In my high school, we talked a little bit about it in Oklahoma History. However, it definitely was the simplified version. #rgcmtalkback20

@PepperPurpura I genuinely don't know how this class could continue with #HB1775 A very important part of this class is acknowledging privilege which sadly goes against the bill. #rgcmtalkback20

@RandallSweet5 I loved Teen Titans when I was younger. This show was so interesting as all of the heroes were so young to have that much responsibilities. Cyborg and Beast Boy were my favorite. #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

@RandallSweet5 This was also one of my favorite discussions. It was so interesting how they typically show people from a lower socioeconomic class dumb just because they are poor. #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

@kristyp_wheat This is such a good title and it sums up the class perfectly. The knowledge we gained from this class gives us the power to be better in the future. #rgcmtalkback20

It's interesting and sad how Hip Hop went from being for poor urban youth to a middle-class suburban white kid status symbol of being a troublemaker. They listen to the music without understanding the meaning and struggle of where it comes from. #rgcmtalkback20

I find the start to issue 5 where the president's question of Mass Media link's to riots ironic. President Trump also influenced a riot, so I guess he should know. #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

It's funny that a group of college students created a team called the "Fighting Whites" and had a media controversy. I bet the people that are okay with the Washington Football team name were not okay with the "Fighting Whites" #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

It's crazy how media companies like Disney would rather hire a white actor like Dep to play native roles and spend time in getting him adopted in a tribe than hire a Native actor in the first place. #rgcmtalback20

Income stagnation seems to be the norm in America for most of my life. Prices seem to keep going up while wages stay the same. This just leads to the majority of people not being able to afford things while the rich get richer. #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

It's crazy how advertisers would queer-code their ads than have an obviously gay couple on screen. I get that they do that to also appeal to straight audiences, but it's still sad. #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

It is really sad that the Ellen sitcom was canceled for her coming out as a Lesbian. That was an awarding-winning sitcom, but once she came out everyone immediately turned on the show. #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

I think this class really did a great job at showing how to be careful not to fall into a stereotype when writing articles or stories. Using stereotypes is harmful and has no place in journalism. #rgcmtalkback20

[Maggie Jensen @MaggieAJensen]

This week's discussion post is about cultural competence. I believe this is an important skill to develop as a journalist because understanding other's background helps us understand why they do certain things the way they do it. #rgcmtalkback20
