Storyboard Text
- Hi! How are you?
- All's well! You've sure been busy of late. You barely visit.
- I've just been busy with the lawsuit against my brother back home
- Oh my! What happened?
- Apparently it's still illegal to be gay in Nigeria
- You can't be serious. But it's been legalized here since 1967! One
- One would think society would be more accepting and diverse after so many years. It's a pity!
- It's just the world we live in dear. I think I took a course on something like this in college.
- Yeah. I always thought it to be boring theories. Never did I think it'd actually happen so close to home.
- Oh, wow!
- I'm not really into sociology I just know some random theories.
- Fancy! I didn't know you were into sociology.
- HA HA HA HA HA HA
- ...and everything else
- It's called social construstionism or simply the social construct of crime.
- So what's this phenomenon called?
- It simply states that what is criminal and deviant is what society makes of it
- I'm going to pretend I understood what you just said.
- So basically, when a group of people agree to live together, they put forth some rules or "norms" in order to relatively leave in peace and harmony. Now there are different groups of people in the world with their different views on what is accepted and not.
- For something to be considered criminal it has to be contrary to the norms of the society in question or widely accepted as a crime. Criminalization usually takes place through processes of claims making by social movements or groups that feel threatened or disturbed by a certain behaviour.
- Exactly. That's why we always have to consider the time, place, culture and individual perspectives when we're discussing the social construct of crime. There is also the possibility of personal relationship, human relationship, social institutions, and media influencing our views on what is criminal and not.
- Kinda of how colonialists legalized residential schools and then after several years it was banned.
- Exactly! Hopefully Nigeria would become more diverse sooner or later. Anyways, I should better start heading home. It's been a long discussion.
- Now that you say it, it actually makes sense. Like a few years ago I probably won't be allowed to work.
- Bye!
- I'm glad you could come. Today's discussion was very enlightening
- Thank you for having me. I also had a lot of fun today.
