Responding to Peggy

I'm going to have to admit that I'm having trouble with most of these statements. It's not that I can't open my mind to how other races might have trouble with these issues, because certainly there are these troubles, but just as many white people have troubles like these. I think that this goes beyond white people, or black people. Even hispanics are having an easier time of finding themselves in the media; Dora the Explorer and Diego are mainstream children's shows. What if we extended it to gender? Even then, I have a hard time because I don't see too much in the way of sexism. I can disagree with quite a few of them when I look at it from a class standpoint. A lot of these could be hard for a person with less money.
