Examples Of Stereotypes In Othello

In Shakespeare’s tragedy Othello, the title character is a 16th century Moorish general of the Venetian army who, because of the cultural and historical background of the play’s setting, the playwright, and the original intended audience, is portrayed as both well-respected for his military prowess and disparaged for his race. Similarly, because of today’s American society both celebrates the richness of Latin food,music, and language which creates a sort of ignorance due to the fact that many Non-Hispanics rely on them in many ways and yet consistently robs them of their own unique cultures when they are all assumed to be a criminal, uneducated poor or being an illegal immigrant.

We think of cowboys as lonesome, taciturn white men — as American as apple pie. But the original cowboys were vaqueros, Mexican ranch hands, which is where Anglo cowboys pretty much got their whole thing”.
