Challenge Update: 1 new proposal added

Published Thursday, October 23, 2008 by SoulSnax | E-mail this post

It's been quite some time since we added some new proposals to the RiceDaddies Empowerment in Diversity Challenge. Since that time, all of our educational proposals have either been fully funded, or have expired.

To keep the momentum going, we've added one new proposal to the challenge (more to come!):

Critical Media Literacy: Reading Ethnicity in the Media

Launched in June 2007, the RiceDaddies Empowerment in Diversity Challenge aims to mitigate the marginalizing effects of diversity-negligent pop culture and media by funding innovative educational programs that do the following:

Promote positive images of ourselves for our children
Promote positive images of ourselves for other people and their children
Develop skills in our children that empower them to be leaders in the world in which we live
Promote pride in one's culture instead of shame
Promote self-respect and appreciation for others like ourselves
Develop our children's ability to use their imaginations in an empowering way
Encourage our children to be who they truly are

Critical Media Literacy: Reading Ethnicity in the Media
- Los Angeles, California - Grades 9-12 - Poverty Data Unavailable -

"Critical Media Literacy challenges students to critically examine and read messages that the media plays for them everyday. In order to do this, we will be examining many issues through movies, television, music videos, music, and magazines. We will read what the media says about different Ethnic groups and issues that affect them."
