Hays And Erford: A Brief Analysis

398 Words2 Pages

Reflection Hays and Erford (2014) define the factors affecting our counselor identity as our culture, lifespan period, gender, sexual orientation, and the last but not the least our prejudicial beliefs. In the country that I have grown up, we did not have too many Asian descents living among us and the insight that we have about both Native Americans and Asian Americans were just a paragraph length of information in sociology books. I would just add a couple American movies have had some people included in the film as side characters or neighbor members. Preparing for this week’s assignment gave me a lot different perception about Asian Americans, Native Americans and multiculturally component counselors. As a multicultural counselor myself,

  • Model Minorities: Stereotyping Of Asian American Students

    310 Words  | 2 Pages

    I have chosen to do this reading response of Lee’s piece about model minorities. This chapter focuses on stereotyping of Asian American students and the affects that that has. This piece starts off by discussing how there are two main stereotypes of Asian Americans and those are: being the foreigner and the model minority. Next, the piece discusses how Asian Americans are not seen as authentic, which has resulted in modifications to try and achieve the “American” standard of beauty. I believe that the central argument of this piece is showing that stereotyping Asian americans is detrimental to their education and their identity.

  • Compare And Contrast Rainsford And Richard Connell

    687 Words  | 3 Pages

    Two 20th century British short stories both demonstrate that the predator can become the prey if he is reckless. In “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell, the protagonist, Rainsford, falls off his boat on his way to a hunting trip and must swim to a nearby island where he meets the antagonist, General Zaroff, a hunter much the same as Rainsford. However, Rainsford soon finds out that Zaroff is in the sport of hunting humans and that he will be hunted the next day. Similarly, in Victor Canning’s “Dialogue Behind a Curtain,” the Great Man interrogates a fisherman accused of smuggling goods and people in and outside of the Great Man’s communist country. It is only through the conversation between the two, that the dictator allows the poor

  • Response To Eleonore Stump's Paper

    441 Words  | 2 Pages

    Eleonore Stumps starts her paper by explaining what the problem of evil is. The problem of evil is that the claim God is omnipotent and omniscient is contradicting to what is evident in the world, that evil exist. Many philosophers who are agreeing in this claim believes that if God is all powerful and all knowing he would have diminished the evil that exist in the world. For this to be true there must be evidence that God is morally incapable to do what is right. However, Stumps takes a different turn to prove that there is another reason why evil exists in the world, by looking at different Christian beliefs in details.

  • Microagressions: A Case Study

    I eventually found a counselor who was White, middle aged, and a woman. During the intake process, I was describing my frustration with being made to feel as if my thoughts, beliefs and opinions represented the entire Black/African American population. The counseling session eventually turned into me answering her questions about Black culture. After that initial session, I never went back to see her because I was placed in the same situation during my counseling session. If placed in a similar situation during another counseling session, I would stop the session and express how this does not assist with developing a safe and positive client-counselor working alliance.

  • The Pros And Cons Of The Model Minority Myth

    1584 Words  | 7 Pages

    The model minority myth describes Asian Americans as the ideal racial minority based on their perceived achievement as a group – high incomes, good education, and low crime rates. While the model minority myth may seem positive at surface level, it can create many problems for Asian American students. These students may be overlooked for receiving individual assistance, may be unfairly stereotyped, and may resist seeking help when they need it. The model minority myth also creates tension between Asian Americans and other minority groups – who may feel that Asian Americans receive significant advantages over their own group. Educators can work to create supportive and inclusive school environments by educating themselves about the model minority myth and working to eradicate their own biases.
