Good Day and Happy Holiday to all Malaysians...
If you have read my post previously, you will understand that what is stereotypes is all about.
As I mention before the stereotypes can be good or bad, but most of the time in our humanity, stereotypes tend to be a bad side. Since child we been taught a lot of things in book or life and that will put in mind that the things that we learned is all true, but it turns out not that way.
These few days I watch a lot advertisement in youtube, below is the two videos that very good to show you that what will happened when we are having certain stereotypes.
Note: I am here not spreading negative racism, my post here is talking about how we can be a better person and to have a better world.
This video basically is a six photographer be given a task to shot a same person, but they been given a task with perspective. First photographer will shot a person that so called millionaire, the second will be a life saver, third will be Ex Inmate, next is fisherman, fifth is psychic and the last will be formal alcoholic. This video will let you see when all these photographer with a same subject but different character, the results from the photo will tell everything. This is kind a very direct message that tell us, we human when he have a perspective to a person, our judgement will based on the perspective. The perspective will affect our judgement whether it is a good or bad. So we must put down every perspective that we have before we want to know the person for sure.
This is another interesting advertisement that you must watch for sure. In normal life we are using appearance to judge a person who they are. In this ads, they are arranging all people to meet in darkness. Through darkness they will know who the person that sit besides them by description but not by face. As you can see the first person that talk is a heavy metal band member and he is wearing a formal wear. A tattoo guy that having tattoo all over his face actually is a person that very well educated and been giving talk in TED talk. next is the person that very interested in arabic language but he is not arabian. Next is a real arabian that love to cook. Next is handicapped person that love to skydiving. After that they turning on the lights and everyone is shock because what they saw is different than what they think. You can know that everyone is not expected that the difference is so big, a formal wear guy is a heavy metal band member and a tattoo guy is an educator. This is all is the label and stereotypes that we have in our daily life. At last this ads show a tagline:
labels are for cans, not for people.
Yes, we should not have labels to everyone. If we putting down all these labels and stereotypes, our world can be a better world and treat everyone the same. I believe this is the best way to give a peace world to everybody without any war and conflict.
Hopefully me and you can learn from this advertising and learn to put down all stereotypes and make this world a better place.
cheers and steem on.
