Select a film that relies on ethnic stereotypes and misrepresents Native Americans or African Americans.
Please select a contemporary, mainstream Hollywood film, not one of the films that utilizes cultural stereotypes.
Do NOT select a comedy, musical, or animated film.
Write a letter to the director explaining why her or his ethnic characterizations objectionable, and include an analysis of 2 or more scenes from the film that exemplifies this in your letter.
Your letter should suggest changes you would like to see made if they had the opportunity to redirect the scene.
For instance, you may make suggestions about costume, dialogue, setting, plot, etc., that you feel would constitute more accurate representations of ethnicity.
