Hi There my name is Claumery Cabrera and this will be my 2nd semester at Baruch College. I am interested in majoring in Intenational Marketing for now. I really enjoy travling and learning about new countries. I hail from Woodhaven, Queens.
Hey, my name is Nusrath, also known by many as Nuzzy. This is my 2nd year at baruch college, so my 3rd semester. I want to major in marketing and minor in international business. I just love to hang out and have a good time all the time whether with family or freinds. I am from Ozone park, Queens.
After viewing the agree to be offended video, I saw a lot about racsim and how one another in the US treat eachother..but i dont know if i agree with being offended..I guess its really up to the individual and how they feel about race and racism...for me right now..i think i would have to be in a certain racial situation to really give out all my thoughts...
My name is Paul this is my third semester at Baruch College. I am majoring in business management and intend to go to culinary school afterwards. My favorite way to explore a culture is through their tastes, which I find exciting. I was born, raised and still live in Brooklyn. The part of "Agreed to Be Offended" I think about most is on at 6:10 where it is mentioned that,” everyone is affected by race." I feel that when I get into conversations about race, people forget that, and rely purely on their personal experiences to play out the role of the only victim. The thing to remember with race is that there are only victims. It robs people of beneficial experiences that can be had with peoples of other races and cultures. So even the "privileged" in a way, aren't privileged.
This is Eugene Kheyfets and my first post here after getting my login. With every different culture there is a difference in things and what could be no big deal for one of them could mean something extravagent in the other.
hEY THIS IS sEAn its my first real semester at Baruch and i really like the message this video is portraying. I never thought about how easy it would be to not get upset or just in fact embrace racial acts in a sense. I realized in society alot of what causes ppl to do or say certain things is when you feed it by paying attention or dwelling it makes them keep at it so the more we just in a sense put a smile on we def could do our own individual part on ending racial prejudice !
