 I'm working on a article writing multi-part question and need a sample draft to help me understand better.

Discussion 5A: Contradictory messages?

Use Attached ARTICLES- Taking the Offensive Against Offensive Toys and Unlearning the Myths that Blind us

As educators we tell children to be nice, not condone violence and share, however the Rethinking Popular Culture book provides multiple (disturbing) examples of instances where subtext about greed, superiority/inferiority, violence or stereotyping abounds in children's popular culture. In addition the PFLAG link - https://pflag.org/publication/toptenwaystomakescho…educates us about bullying and cyber-bullying.

Choose 2 chapters from this weeks readings that illustrate this (please make sure that no more than 2 of your colleagues have referenced the chapter you choose). Please use quotes (with page numbers) to explain your points and ground your discussions in details.

1) According to the authors, what message/s (e.g. "might is right", "sexism is natural" etc) are embedded in children's film, toys, textbooks or literature?

2) Why does this matter to you? (What connections do you make from these readings – to your life, as an educator or student?)
