Defeating Media Driven
African American Male Stereotypes
When a young African American male turns on the TV or goes to the movies, there is a narrowed view they see of themselves. Whether it’s the African American character with his pants hanging off his waste and underwear showing, to the super athlete with physical abilities beyond belief, or seeing a highly disproportionate number of African American faces on the show “Cops”, they are bombarded with negative images. “Just Not Me” was written to highlight these untrue stereotypes and explain to young African American males that they are much more than the simplified images they encounter on a daily basis on TV. Written in a simplified manner to be appropriate for young ages, “Just Not Me” can also be used as a point of discussion for teenagers and adults as well.
