Nice three page paper you have there.



Here's my help.



When looking to cheat on your homework, reword the question. People are more likely to help when you don't just cut and paste the whole question.



When asking for an absurd amount of work from a free website, you'll get more help if you focus on the parts which you are having actual problems with. Nobody is going to write a detailed breakdown in that much detail for you. They would however, give you three stereotypical images and point you int he right direction by giving a few examples.

There are FAR more than 3....and as none of us here attend your school, or know which text you are working out of, its impossible for anyone to do your homework for you.

Take a look at the google images for African American Girl: https://www.google.com/search?q=african+american+girl&espv=210&es_sm=93&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=ENxWUv77NKKuiQLN2YGADg&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1600&bih=775&dpr=1



Now take a look at Asian American Girl google images: https://www.google.com/search?q=african+american+girl&espv=210&es_sm=93&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=ENxWUv77NKKuiQLN2YGADg&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1600&bih=775&dpr=1#es_sm=93&espv=210&q=Asian+American+Girl&tbm=isch



Now take a look at Irish American Girl google images: https://www.google.com/search?q=african+american+girl&espv=210&es_sm=93&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=ENxWUv77NKKuiQLN2YGADg&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1600&bih=775&dpr=1#es_sm=93&espv=210&q=Irish+American+girl&tbm=isch



What do you see? Girls. Who identify with the above ethnic groups. Some young girls, some slightly older. Most are "normal" looking. Just about ALL of them are contemporary images, since African American, Asian American, and Irish American girls all are recognized in this country for who they are.



Now, look at what google images has to say about ME, an American Indian Girl: https://www.google.com/search?q=american+indian+girl&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=6ttWUoaCFarjiAKdxoGwCw&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1600&bih=775&dpr=1



Count how many images have a young woman or girl, from this century, dressed in every-day clothes, that are not actually hispanic or south american, or from India? I counted 3 out of the first 100 images.



This tells me that just about everything America THINKS they know about me, and girls who are like me...is a stereotype. We are invisible to the American populace. What you see in that Google image search is what the vast majority of Americans associate with "native Americans".



Here is a handful of girls from my tribe. THIS is what I associate being "Native American" with, at least, in a microscopic glimpse. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kavgBn_BuR0



here are native youth from all over the country, working with some of our Suquamish youth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ChQa5szOQg



Where are they in the google searches? THESE are our people...yet America doesn't recognize us for what we are. We are the MOST stereotyped people on the friggin' planet.



Your assignment could be the easiest one I have ever heard of. Pick ANY image there on google. And I will tell what is stereotypical about it.
