You bring up a good point. I believe that everyone is, as Ms. Roth put it, "framed" by society the minute they step outside their homes. I find myself victim to these framings and also found myself framing others myself. these assumption made about someone aren't just limited to in-person experiences, but can also lie in pictures taken by others. Twisting your fingers certain ways and looking at the camera in a certain way can lead to the assumption your a gangster. A bunch of children lookin excited to learn and helping others and stuff and the assumption is your looking at a good working environment. I believe people should be very careful about how they portray themselves because in my eyes, you will ALWAYS be framed.
