Now a days people are categorizing colombian as a drog dealers or tiff, but not body see that mostly of colombian are hard workers, I mean of course that in our country are drog dealers and we figth with that every day since Pablo Escobar ages, and this man stain our reputation and the people whose make good for the country try to show our best qualities, another stereotype is that we are thieves, I mean everybody outside of Colombia think that, in fact we know some cases of colombian people robering in other countrys.
Emphasizing Colombia, we are well known for stereotypes such as drugs, weapons, in summary, Pablo Escobar; people around the world, have to realize that we also are sports, science, literature, among other things. People can not continue judging us, just for our past, now we are more than that and also, we can not get affect for these things that are said about us, we know what we are made of and that in most of the cases, we do things in correct way.
Stereotyping is just an attempt to link everyone’s characteristics which is impossible. Some people could fit on some stereotypes, nevertheless not everyone does. Coping with it only requires being brave enough and letting people know by your own actions the real person you are. Categorization is not always worth it, and humankind is dynamic, we are constantly changing that is why stereotypes lack of reliability and validity
