    3. Additionally, with oppression racialized bodies are challenged by dominant notions of beauty and desirability. This takes place by reprimanding Brown, Black, Hispanic, and Asian’s for their features, when western culture rejects minority features it normalizes White features marking lighter skin, thinner noses, and finer hair as most appealing. When culture standards are unfavorable of one social group it creates insecurities in that social groups, and creates a problem like colorism which is favoriting a minority group with fairer skin. Society implements this by mostly casting on television young, tall, and robust white men who saves the also white, blonde-haired, petite, innocent women. Implanting these standards on movies, games, television, and dolls.…

    Located in East Asia, near China and Korea, Japan offers a rich, complex and interesting history. There is a wide array of countries which would surely be interesting to develop on; however, I have always had a fascination with Japan in particular. The differences between their way of living and ours are so extreme that elaborating on them would be unquestionably captivating. In Quebec, the Japanese culture is not taught, nor considered important. International sides of it are showed on television, such as Animes or movies but, what is mostly known about Japan is their peculiar modern culture. I believe educating people on this country’s history would surely bring understanding on the subject and hopefully encourage a more positive attitude toward the differences that make the “Country of the Rising Sun” what it is. From its origins to the modern Era, this paper will discuss the drastic changes of the Japanese culture in modern society.…
