30 Rock

- I think you wanted us to see this episode of 30 Rock, because it was very relevant to racism and prejudice, which are topics we have been working on in class. In this episode we get to see a good example of prejudice. Liz, which is one of the main characters in this series, believes that the new neighbour is a terrorist, because he is from the Middle East and acts a little strange. Even if one were to believe that there was no difference between races and racism in 2012, it is still quite a lot. Many people might believe that Liz over reacted, but the Americans are very sensitive in this area because of the 9/11 attack, were al-Qaida sent a series of four coordinated suicide attacks on the USA.

- I’m quite sure of that the whole class agrees on that there is a limit on when to use humour on sensitive topics. To use humour on such topics makes them more daily based, sometimes it’s better to not take everything so serious. Several people choose to be active if we make it fun, rather than boring and complicated, humour attracts more people, and even more become aware of it, even the youth.
