Hi, Eduer I can see how you relate to the stereotype of African American’s being very good at sports due to your personal experience. If I were in your shoes I would have probably imagined the same thing without even realizing I was stereotyping. I believe we learn these kinds of behavior by what we see and hear in music and television and media in general, in this case we see it very often in advertisements and sports. Another stereotype you mentioned that is greatly influenced by the media is that African American are involved with gang violence and drug. We see that all-over television, movies and music as well, the media plays a big role in depicting stereotypes into pop culture so that we can become familiar with them and think it’s okay
