Reviewing Sources

 

 

               The USC digital library has been a very useful source as I have begun my initial steps in this researched essay. Since my topic discusses how African American women are discriminated against in America’s healthcare system, I have been using research terms such as “African American Women and Health,” or “Women of color and Access to Affordable Health Care” or “POC and Mental Health.” I have used ProQuest, Credo and the Public Health Database as references. I am including two resources that I believe will be helpful:

  "Fat Amy" The Funny Fat Friend     Pitch Perfect was one of my favorite films growing up and always made me fantasize about going off to college one day, maybe joining an a cappella group and having a fun, supportive group of friends, from many different backgrounds. Reflecting on the film now, however, especially as someone who struggles with body image, I find Rebel Wilson’s character of Fat Amy to be a bit problematic. Although she is a very funny and confident young woman, most of her humor revolves around her weight.        We see examples of this as soon as the character is introduced in the film.
