A significant event that reveals that the negative effects of stereotyping is in “Killers” and the quote . . . “They’re killers alright, agreed the man . . . he fumbled for a cigarette, fed it into his mouth. “This show the negative effect of stereotyping on society because he is saying the hawk is the killer when al it is doing is what the Hawk needs to for basic survival, which also shows the man, is being hypercritical when he just tried to murder the hawk and he is smoking a cigarette and smoking kills.
In “On the side walk bleeding the effect is show when “He had a terrible pain when the knife had torn across his body, then sudden relief when the blade was pulled away. He had heard the voice saying, “That’s for you, Royal””.

In my opinion the Family in the car from “killers” and the Cop from “On the sidewalk Bleeding” acted harshly towards the country community/Andy and shows me that the city folk/Cop are not aware of stereotyping or the effects it has on society. In conclusion Stereotyping has a negative effect on society and can have destructive effects on civilization. Stereotyping cause the real personalities and aspects of people to be ignored by society because of the countless lies and assumption that have been in place for decades.

People should actively train themselves to fend off stereotypical assumptions as to live more freely and accept others more willingly. By Lachlan McDowall Year 11 English.
