Reflection

I learned a lot from this research project. i learned that most of my classmates and teachers don't use racial slurs, but they don't take them seriously either. alot of the surveys i took gad light ideas and found comic relief in all the racial contraversey. i think that pretty much everyone generalizes race with stereo types. it natural, and most of us know better. i also learned a lot about the people that i interviewed and took surveys from. i would reccomend researching this to everyone. you can never know to much about one of the biggest issues in society. in my opinion, racial slurs should never go further then teasing your friends and poking fun at yourself. It can be very hurtful and negative. it ALWAYS gets to me when a stranger you meet on the sidewalk calls you by one of the racial slurs. i don't think that teachers should use them and i don't reccomend that they really be used outside of a comfortable environment. you never know who you will offend. racial slurs will only continue to get worse there will always be new ones. but i doubt that they will be used in any serious way that may offend. they will continue to evolve and eventually become extinct. anyone who wants to research this should take a larger amount of surveyers and interview more people. i never felt that i and enough research to really make a solid conclusion. i hope someone out there will research my topic further!
