THEMES
Stereotyping/Labels
*A person who fits a certain category (Emo, Goth, Prep,
Nerd) and something that represents the stereotype placed on them (Emo + Razor,
Goth + Satanic symbol, Prep + Pom poms, Nerd + Glasses)
-Stereotypes give people a chance to unfairly judge a person
based on lies before without even getting to know them
-Stereotypes give another reason for bullies to target the
people around them
-Stereotypes can cause kids to be insecure with who they are
resulting in them pretending to be someone they’re not
Racism
*People of all races somehow connected
-Racism has gotten out of control lately! People don’t
realize that we are all human no matter what the color of our skin is.
-Racism affects everyone maybe not equally but it does have
an effect on each and every person in the world
-Racism is often overlooked and ignored
LGBT/Homophobia
*LGBT people and couples
-Homophobia is a big issue and it leads to bullying and discrimination
against people who have done nothing wrong
-Homophobia makes it hard for people to come out as being
gay, lesbian, bisexual etc.
-Homophobia is stupid and pointless! Why hurt someone who is
just being themselves? These people were born this way and they can change who
they are and they shouldn't feel the need to.
Mental Health
Awareness
*A brain each with a different mental health problem
-People don’t understand enough about mental health making
it harder for kids with mental health problems to live in society today
-People get bullied for having mental health problems
because others don’t understand it and they think they’re all just freaks
-People are being defined by their mental state now and that’s
not right. People should only be defined by who they are on the inside not by
their disabilities.
Suicide Awareness
*Facts about suicide
-Suicide is happening way too often now a days
-Kids who commit suicide often have underlying mental health
problems that have gone unnoticed and untreated
-More and more kids are committing suicide and by the time
people actually notice that something is wrong it’s too late to save the person
