LABRST 2M03 Chapter Notes - Chapter 8: Darpa, The Stereotypes, The Employer
Document Summary
In the first two great waves of industrialization, there were large concerns about what groups would work in certain crafts. The idea was that if industrialization continues on the pace that it is, and if the power of employers and capitalism continues to grow, all workers will be reduced to a state of slavery. We do not want to be reduced to the state of slavery highly racial term in the us, essentially did not want to be treated like a coloured worker/individual. Certain groups were labelled as too uncivilized and too unjust to adjust to the changing workplace mainly african americans, aboriginals and new immigrants. The stereotypes of different groups were not the same, and it depends on where they get constructed onto the web of anxiety that the us had. You see enormous amounts of hostility and stereotypes towards certain immigrant groups, even if that immigrant population was not there.
