Theme Party
Michelle is looking through Facebook after class and notices that her good friend Anthony has a new album uploaded on his profile entitled 鈥淔OBs R Us.鈥 Michelle looks through the photos and video clips and sees that both white students and students of color are depicting stereotypes of immigrants from Asia. There are people speaking in fake accents, wearing pointed farmer鈥檚 hats and ethnic garb, bowing to each other, posing in mock martial arts positions, and carrying around chopsticks in their pockets.
Michelle knows that most of the photos were taken at a 鈥淔resh Off the Boat鈥 party Anthony held the weekend before. Michelle was invited but made up an excuse not to go because the whole idea made her uncomfortable. Now that she sees the photos, she鈥檚 even more uncomfortable, but she notices that a lot of her friends have 鈥渓iked鈥 pictures from the album. Is there something wrong with Michelle鈥檚 sense of humor, or is there something wrong with the FOBs R Us?
