This contains a gay couple with very different demeanors, a biracial couple with a contrasting age difference and a couple that interchanges their normative gender roles. The show also paved the road for other family sitcoms centered on minority families.<\/p>\n<p>-General Mills was one of the first companies to air a commercial featuring a biracial couple to have a child. The amount of press this commercial received was alarming\u2014especially since much of it was negative. Others noted that they don\u2019t see color\u2026 but they realize what the upset of the commercial is about\u2014so color blind is not a thing. This can also bring into question what people are comfortable writing online, but wouldn&#8217;t consider articulating.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I would like to find a summer reading list of a school where the majority of the students are minorities. I imagine the books will hold the typical cannon literature. However, maybe I\u2019ll be surprised. I think this could provide some interesting rhetoric to why the mismatched texts are chosen for students who will struggle to make connections to the works that they probably won\u2019t find interesting. These lists are often dreaded by both parents and children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I would like to follow a theme about children and families for my artifacts\u2014I would like to include Modern Family (the show), a Cheerios commercial feedback (Facebook), and a summer reading list for a middle or high school. -Modern family hits on some key topics that are integral in the current societal norms featuring very <a href='https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/10\/23\/22\/09\/artifacts-of-evolving-families\/' class='excerpt-more'>[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1076"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1076"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1076\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1076"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1076"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techrhet.com\/3310\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1076"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
