Through watching this clip i asked myself the questions: Who is being represented?
What is being represented?
How is the representation constructed? (communicated?)
And i personally have come to the conclusion that being represented through this clip is the first generation of black visitors of which have settled in this country and how the majority of white people have reacted and view the immigrants. I believe that this clip shows the extreme narrow minded nature in which the people of that generation had towards a new change and how they were not prepared to modernize and move with the times. This is represented by the language used by the commentator and the general negative tones undertaken by him about the new generation of visitors, also by the clip in the background showing mostly tones of skin which represent the white man, this shows the racism undertaken and how they believed in white supremacy.
