Reinterpret a “white” or European fairytale to a non white perspective, way of being and language usage. For example, in my culture, Goldilocks is a burglar and vandal. She broke into someone’s home and destroyed their furniture and their food. In addition, a white blond child, just roaming through the neighborhood would be odd and a cause for concern.
I want you to consider the lesson that the original fairytale is trying to teach and create one that is more culturally relevant. You are not to just tell the same story and simply make the characters a different race. I want you to understand how eurocentricism has shaped our perceptions, and disrupt this thinking by creating something new, relevant and culturally life enhancing. What I want you to learn from this assignment is how language and the stories we are taught are shaped by a white-euro privileged positionality.
This essay should be in MLA format a minimum of 3 complete pages. You are to create a fairytale and then write what changes you made and why? And answer the following questions:
How does early linguistic exposures to Eurocentric stories shaped how we view ourselves and the stories we create and share.
Are these fairytales beneficial to all children even though it centers one race of children?
How does centering Eurocentric stories help or hinder children who are not of European ancestry?
