Ebo Entsuah CP #3

For this cultural workshop, we talked about racial stereotypes and generalizations. Being able to tell the difference between the two is incredibly important in today's society. We went over the difference between the two, and a lot of the CIES students learned that Generalizations tend to focus on 'most' while Stereotypes tend to say 'all'. We also talked about certain stereotypes and generalizations between different races and ethnicity's. Some people feel as though people from Russia do nothing but drink alcohol, while others say that people from Saudi Arabia like to show off their wealth because they have nothing better to do. This workshop was definitely one of the more interesting ones because there are so many different stereotypes and generalizations people may have about other cultures and they can range from being somewhat true to absolutely false.
