Killing Us Softly 4 Critique and Impromptu Speech Reflection

Filed under Uncategorized

Killing Us Softly 4 Critique:                                                                                                                           In the speech, Killing Us Softly 4, Jean Kilboume says, “40 years have gone by and things seem to have gotten worst.” Something that caught my attention was that 3,000 ads are exposed to an average person in a year. She state that ads sell more that products. What was shocking was that through photoshop, women are combined from 4 into 1 in the magazines. With this, the creators believe that this shows how we are and how we should be. Women’s bodies are objectified into many things all the time, such as products. She shares how women of color wear animal styled cloths. Children are now starting to become affected by this. She includes the ideas of Feminism and Masculin both types of ads.

Impromptu Speech Reflection:                                                                                                                                     Overall, this impromptu speech on accepting an award seems like it turned out really well for everyone. The one exception is that some of us had a few mistakes such as looking only at their notes and not the rest of the audience. I like how we got to share a little about ourselves and not worry too much.
