Welcome!

Hello Internet, I’m Tyler and this is my brand new blog! Here I will discuss the various stereotypes of different races that are portrayed in the media. It’ll be just my opinions on them and how it affects me in my life.

This will be a fun experience for me since this is my first time ever having a blog! So, bear with me and follow my journey into the world of blogging.

First Actual Post! TV Show Stereotype #1

Hello it’s me again and to start off my blog I’m going to be talking about some stereotypes in one of the best TV shows ever made, Breaking Bad.

The list can go on and on but not all the victims are stereotypes, just interesting people for Liz to be for the episode. This doesn’t stop my enjoyment of the show at all as I like how Liz’s character can basically change from one episode to another and the reason for it is cool. In the end, I would still re
