Native American: Steriotypes

The effect of stereotypes generally would make the person who is in a group of a stereotype sad, mad, depressed, could come to hangings because the stereotype could be very offencive to the person. A stereotypes that has affected a group is how Japanese people are good at math. On a video that I watched it talked about how a Japanese boy wasn't great at math and his teacher expected him to be good and had too high standards and it made him feel bad and sad a lot just because of a stereotype. That is an example of how just something that seems small can affect someone in big ways. The effect of  stereotypes toward Native Americans is/could be very insulting to them. This reminds me of how most black people get stereotyped because of how other/some black people act. Like how most white people think that all black people are bad and dangerous when they have just seen a couple black people who have done bad things and have not seen how the rest of them are good people and are kind.
