Can you help me create a power point for my cultural stereotype presentation.

 

HOW TO MAKE A GREAT PRESENTATION!!!!!

01/14/2025 Module Two Assignment:

• This can be done via PowerPoint or any other application that can create presentations. 
• A presentation is just that:  A presentation.  It must have some great photos or videos that relate to the subject at hand.  (Who wants to sit through a boring slide-show with no pictures or videos?)  Cater to your audience and create buy-in.  See video below for help with creating a great presentation. 

How to Create a Presentation Video

• You should have a cover slide and a separate reference slide above what is asked for in the Rubric.  The cover slide should have the following:
• Name
• Date
• Title of Presentation
• You must include citation and references to support the information you have provided in your presentation.
• Please use speaker notes if you need to discuss more information than what is in the slide.  See video below regarding how to utilize speaker notes.  This is important so I know that you understand the work.  ******My suggestion for the speaker notes is that you create an outline for each slide and put that into the speaker notes.*******

How to add Speaker Notes to Powerpoint

Make sure you read the Rubric and include all elements that are stated under the Module Two Assignment Guidelines and Rubric Prompt section.

Chinese Immigration in America

Cultural Stereotypes

Chinese Stereotypes

Stereotypes plague the world with implied thoughts and misperceptions about different cultures. Chinese immigrants have been stereotyped as intelligent and hardworking but unassertive and non-threatening. Many people view Chinese immigrants as weak and quiet. The various forms of media have portrayed them as small, apologetic people that struggle with English, when in all actuality they are more intelligent and more academically inclined than many other cultures.

San Gabriel Police Department

Primarily Asian-American community in Los Angeles, with limited Asian representation in the police department

Law enforcement personnel were caught using mocking Asian accents and racial slurs

The Asian-American officers get passed up for promotions regardless of education and tenure

Blatant discrimination against Asian-Americans serving in the police force

Police Department is getting sued for discrimination

Fellow officers are suing the San Gabriel Police Department for racial discrimination against Asian-Americans. According to an article by Chris Fuchs (2017), the community is 66% Asian population but the police force does not represent this statistic. The officers that on the force have been witnessed mocking the Asian community as well as the officers that work beside them. There is a law suit forming against the police department because the Asian-Americans on the force are being passed up for promotions even if they are more deserving than the officers receiving them.

South Brooklyn Manhunt
Commander instructs officers to focus on Black and Hispanic offenders

“Think of white and Asian people as ‘soft targets’ (Goldstein and Southall, 2019).

Officers feared retaliation because of quota system

“Encouraged to enforce low-level violations against black and Hispanic people” (Goldstein and Southall, 2019).

Clear racial disparity and bias

Chinese Immigration Timeline

In 1849-1882, the California god rush drew in upwards of 25,000 Chinese immigrants to work the mines and try to take advantage of the opportunities in America. During this time period, the United States formed the Burlingame-Seward Treaty with China, which eased immigration restrictions and allowed for trading with China. Following the Burlingame Treaty, the United States tried to suspend and control the immigration of Chinese immigrants with the Angell Treaty. After the gold rush concluded, the United States implemented the Chinese Exclusion Act that halted immigration from China into the United States. However, when Ellis Island opened, Chinese immigrants took the opportunity to enter the United States on the east coast. Going back to the west coast, the San Francisco earthquake and fires created another opportunity for Chinese immigration because a bunch of the records were lost in the incident. Finally, the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965 was enacted to repeal previous laws restricting the immigration of people to America. (History of San Francisco’s Chinatown, 2017).

Cultural Biases and History

Chinese immigrants were viewed as cheap laborers because they needed to make money to save and send back to their families in China. Therefore, they would accept less money for the same job as their white counterparts.

Local white men started to resent the Chinese immigrants because they were trying to unionize and felt the immigrants were taking their jobs.

Because so many immigrants were trying to come to the U.S., the government started to implement laws and immigration acts to limit laborers from China from coming into the United States. There were exceptions to the rules for other professions and students.

The gold rush formed the opinion that the Chinese were hard workers but cheap labor.

The large increase in Chinese immigration made locals resent the immigrants and caused issues between the whites and the Asians.

The Chinese were getting in the way of white men finding solid work and decent pay because of the lower rates the Chinese would accept.

The U.S. started implementing limitations and bans on the number of immigrants allowed from China, including the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.

Communication Concerns for Chinese Immigrants

Many language issues arise with immigration.

Not all immigrants speak English fluently.

With Chinese often being stereotyped as struggling with English, communication barriers and biases exist.

Biases could influence the way people try to communicate with Chinese immigrants.

Law enforcement may struggle trying to communicate with Chinese immigrants due to the language barriers.

Immigrants may also struggle with understanding law enforcement personnel when dealing with police matters
