Perspectives On Races

The image I chose was of three children. Two of the children happen to be Caucasian, while the one child in the middle is Latino. I posted this picture on my instagram account and in a matter of minutes I had the attention of so many people. In one perspective this picture displays how society has a stereotype based on skin color of individuals. The child has not even been the world for more than a few hours and the future of them has already been picked. But in another perspective the photograph displays how individuals of certain backgrounds and races have progressed into certain job fields. Historically, people of color have not always have the same amount of opportunities as other individuals in society so they started to commonly work at certain jobs that were easier for them to get hired for. Thus, in the picture the maid outfit is a display of how people of color have placed themselves into certain categories of the jobs they are more than common to work at.
