Satire Blog

Since I'm doing my inquiry project on the show "The Boondocks" and the stereotypes it portrays I decided to show a youtube show that I often times watch. This show makes fun of stereotypes and other racial issues as well as a variety of other issues. This particular show is portraying a white mother and black mother and the stereotypes that go with their parenting techniques. It brings about the issue of if these shows actually serve as just a funny show or a resource for getting stereotypical ideas. Some people believe everything thing they watch.

  2. I see you really finding the nuances of the big idea of your inquiry project. I am wondering in what ways The Boondocks is suppose to be a satire and how it is taken up by viewers.
