First blog

Hey everyone,
This is my first blog for the social psychology assessment. I think i have left it a little late in the game but i have changed my mind about which topic to post on a number of times. I have finally decided upon Prejudice, stereotyping and aggression. Possibly due to being inspired to do so after today's lecture. So my first thoughts are of course what exactly do the terms means, and more specifically what do they mean to your average Australian, average student (left myself open there) or to the people who are on the receiving end of prejudice, stereotyping and aggression that stems from these.

I have added two Videos from youtube, please take a look, especially at the first one (it goes for just under 10 minutes, but i think its well worth the time).
The second clip is also sourced from youtube and is someone trying to speak out against prejudice and stereotyping using a very modern medium, which i found interesting in itself.
