REPRESENTATIONS OF ASIANS!

Parminder Nagra
















I choose to talk about the representation of parminder Nagra's character in ER.
  • stereotype- because most Asian parents pressure there children to become successful doctors. Neela is continuous studying to do well in her career.
  • however she is an independent successful women living away from home, it challenges the stereotype of the typical Asian women who stays at home, cooks and cleans.
  • in the last image she is seen getting married to an African American, which is seen as not right, but she manages to keep her tradition and culture by wearing a sari.
  • she does act out some sexual scenes which may be despised by the older generations, having sex before marriage.
