2 Single story 2011

Danger of the Single Story
 
What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community?
It means if you havent been any where before and you really want to go their so you start reading books about that place and when you start reading it you start to get an impression of that place from the book.

Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? How could people learn more about that community?  I have only heard that theirs a lot  white people in austin but in reality theirs more  . The only way you could learn about that communuity is if you either visit it or go on the web and search places and food.

Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn that story? How could you find out more about that community?
A single story to me is probably France how people always eat pizza and crossants and tea.
how they act and if they really do just eat only those three things

How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community?
because in a game you don't want to be racist and have only one stereo types you have to make the game educational about all over the world and actually now the facts about the place in the game.
