This week we got to watch a t.v show in class called Freaks and Geeks. It related to what we have been talking about in class a lot. In the show, all three theoretical perspectives were shown. The show demonstrated structual functionalism by showing how a school runs and the typical social classes that are associated with a high school. The popular kids were "cooler" then the nonpopular students. There were people who caused some dysfunction in the show to. Dysfunction is something that leads to sociL change. The girl in the show went from being herself to trying to fit in with another croud. The show also demonstrated the conflict perspective. The freaks were the power of the school and controlled almost everyone else because no one would stand up to them. It also showed symbolic interation. The arm coat was a symbol of her being rebellious and trying to fit in with people she was not like. Overall I thought the episode related to what we were learning In a big way and really helped me understand the unit.
