Online tv shows- Brother with no game, meet the adebanjos, brothers with no games.
We can apply Fannon and Alvardo's theories to the tight jeans short trailer as they reinforce black and youth stereotypes. I believe it does challenge some representations of the black youth as well. Alvardo has 4 sections. I believe that it goes against the dangerous representation as these three young adults are far from dangerous as they give the white man in tight jeans no big mouth and no continuous steer. The dominate stereotype, of black youths, is that there are scary and make you cross the road, however they weren't presented in that way. They also were being humorous as they were making funny jokes and acting like children with the jokes and they were having a fun time and being funny. These 3 black youths have been initialized as they are acting like little children as they were arguing and joking around.
The second text was gone too far and it was a trailer. In terms of Alvardo's theory the Nigerian was pitied as he was acting like a child and people were laughing at him as they were feeling sorry for him. He is also exotic as he brings the Nigeria culture to the UK and is acting different to the people in the UK. In this trailer there is no dangerous representation as this move there are quite funny and don't act dangerous. Franco's theory states that this Nigerian is Primitvized as he is unknown to the England culture. Lastly the Nigerian person is acting like a child in the movie and this is evident in the way he acts in the chicken shop and starts singing.
