日本代购-<p>The phenomenon of stereotyping is commonly used to make things<br /> mindlessly easier for us to understand. To categorize individuals and to<br /> classify them into groups so we can make sense of the world. We use it in<br /> various contexts: Indians are snobs, arrogant and underendowed, Chinese<br /> do not know how to drive, blondes are dumb, Nigerians are scammers etc.<br /> We are all guilty of stereotyping at some point in our lives. It may be based<br /> on nationality, color of skin, gender, race etc. The categorization of a group<br /> of people that we tend to pigeon-hole is based on but limited to our<br /> personal experiences, what is showcased and broadcast in media, the<br /> stories that we have heard and so on; but we make the mistake to apply it to<br /> an entire group.</p> <p>Having spent two decades of my life in West Africa, through this book I<br /> intend to challenge the epidemic of stereotyping of Nigeria. There is<br /> corruption in Nigeria but don't label the entire country as being corrupt,<br /> there is corruption in India too.</p> <p>There are scams in Nigeria but don't label all Nigerian as scammers, there<br /> are scams in Hong Kong too. There is drug trafficking in Nigeria but don't<br /> label all Nigerian as drug peddlers, there is drug trafficking in Mexico too.<br /> What follows in this book shall give a window into the consciousness of the<br /> minds housing Nigerian stereotypes. Please be mindful that along the way<br /> the filter of typecasts will cloud your vision. Therefore, through my<br /> narrative based on first-hand experiences, I invite you to get to know what<br /> Nigeria and Nigerians are all about. Remember, oftentimes the reality is far<br /> more attractive and superior than what we dare to acknowledge.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
