The document discusses how to promote respect among people from different cultures living together. It recommends getting to know people from other countries to learn about their cultures instead of just interacting with people from one's own country. Embracing cultural differences and avoiding rude comments or jokes that could be offensive are also suggested as ways to avoid discrimination and build understanding.

Environment

How can we start to
help from NOW
By Katia Morales

Living in a place with
so many different
cultures can be
challenging, specially
talking about respect

Naturally people is drawn to others that are like themselves,
but, if you befriend just people of your country problems of
racism and discrimination arise.

How can we avoid to
fall in that behavior?

Get out of your
comfort zone and get
to know someone
new, preferably from
a different country
than yours

Learn from their culture. You can realize that most of actions or jokes, even if you
didn’t know it, could be considered as offensive or racist

Embrace the differences. Not only what you grew up with is the
“correct” way of doing things

Avoid being rude. Faces,
expressions, jokes,
comments, etc can hurt
more than you imagine.
You can be a bully
without intending to.

Be tolerant and
understanding of others
cultures and situations.
Show the mercy and
compassion that you’d like
to receive

White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Backpack by Peggy McIntosh Through the work to bring materials from Women’s Studies into the rest of the curriculum, I have often noticed men’s unwillingness to grant that they are over- privileged, even though they may grant that women are disadvantaged. They may say they will work to improve women’s status, in the society, the university, or the curriculum, but they can’t or won’t support the idea of lessening men’s. Denials which amount to taboos sur round the subject of advantages which men gain from women’s disadvantages. These denials protect male privilege from being fully acknowledged, lessened or ended. Thinking through unacknowledged male privilege as a phenomenon, I realized that since hierarchies in our society are interlocking, there was most likely a phenomenon of white privilege which was similarly denied and protected. As a white person, I realized I had been taught about racism as something which puts others at a disadvantage, but had been taught not to see one of its corollary aspects, white privilege, which puts me at an advantage. I think whites are carefully taught not to recognize white privilege, as males are taught not to recognize male privilege. So I have begun in an untutored way to ask what it is like to have white privilege. I have come to se white privilege as an invisible package of unearned assets which I can count on cashing in each day, but about which I was ‘meant’ to remain oblivious. White privilege is like an invisible weightless backpack of special provisions, maps, passports, codebooks, visas, clothes, tools and blank checks. Describing white privilege makes one newly accountable. As we in Women’s Studies work to reveal male privilege and ask men to give up some of their power, so one who writes about having white privilege must ask, “Having described it, what will I do to lessen or end it?” After I realized the extent to which men work from a base of unacknowledged privilege, I understood that much of their oppressiveness was unconscious. Then I remembered the frequent charges from women of color that white women whom they encounter are oppressive. I began to understand why we are justly seen as oppressive, even when we don’t see ourselves that way. I began to count the ways in which I enjoy unearned skin privilege and have been conditioned into oblivion about its existence. My schooling gave me no training in seeing myself as an oppressor, as an unfairly advantaged person, or as a participant in a damaged culture. I was taught to see myself as an individual whose moral state depended on her individual moral will. My schooling followed the pattern my colleague Elizabeth Minnich has pointed out: whites are taught to think of their lives as a morally neutral, normative, and average, also ideal, so that when we work to benefit others, this is seen as work whic.

Overtly bold type the prompts with your responses following in regular type. You can be brief, but your responses should be in complete sentences. I want to know what you think, not word-for-word Google responses. 1. What is white privilege? 2. What is unearned advantage? 3. What is conferred dominance? 4. How do people deny that systems of dominance exist? 5. How is white advantage strongly enculturated? 6. What is meant by the myth of meritocracy? 7. How might someone with white privilege use his or her unearned advantage for the betterment of all and not just his/her own cohorts?

They may say they will work to women’s statues, in the society, the university, or the curriculum, but they can’t or won’t support the idea of lessening men’s.

Chapter 12 Coping and Support in Late Adulthood I. Coping Strategies and Aging A. Non-developmental Models of Coping 1. Late adulthood presents new challenges as adults enter their elderly years 2. One popular and long-standing way of describing cognitive coping strategies is through the use of coping mechanisms. 3. These mechanisms can range from the a) More deliberately used and adaptive, such as humor, to b) The more involuntary, immature, and maladaptive, such as extreme denial of a source of stress (Vaillant, 2000). 4. Another way is to divide strategies by focus- Popular non-developmental models of coping a) Problem-focused category (1) Aimed at searching for workable solutions or resolutions to the issues creating the stress. b) Emotion-focused category (1) Generally used when the target or source of the stress cannot be changed or eliminated. B. Developmental Regulation 1. Developmental regulation a) Highlights differences between primary control, which peaks in middle adulthood, and secondary control, which increases in strength and effectiveness throughout adulthood b) Offers a strategy for maintaining a sense of personal control over our situation, which is likely to contribute to successful aging c) PRIMARY CONTROL generally involves outward or external actions, d) SECONDARY CONTROL involves deliberately adjusting our internal sense of self, identity, and motivation to cope with external changes (Heckhausen, 1997). C. Socioemotional Selectivity Theory 1. Most people maintain the size of their social support network until very late in life. 2. The socioemotional selectivity theory (SST) encourages older adults to cope by regulating their emotional responses, primarily by limiting their social interactions to those that are positive and supportive. D. Selection, Optimization, and Compensation 1. The Selection, Optimization, and Compensation SOC model encourages older adults to a) Survey their resources and select reasonable goals and priorities b) Optimize their resources with a focus on achieving those goals c) Use their resources to compensate for losses. 2. While considered a meta-theory and applied to many areas of life, the SOC model is well suited as a coping strategy for older adults who are adjusting to limited resources and abilities. II. Coping by Accepting Social Support A. Social Relationships and Support 1. A helpful way to cope with the challenges of aging is to turn to trustworthy family members, friends, and neighbors. 2. Social networks generally get smaller with age, but they will increase as an older adult experiences more disability and when a crisis oc.

White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack By Peggy McIntosh This article is now considered a ‘classic’ by anti-racist educators. It has been used in workshops and classes throughout the United States and Canada for many years. While people of color have described for years how whites benefit from unearned privileges, this is one of the first articles written by a white person on the topics. It is suggested that participants read the article and discuss it. Participants can then write a list of additional ways in which whites are privileged in their own school and community setting. Or participants can be asked to keep a diary for the following week of white privilege that they notice (and in some cases challenge) in their daily lives. These can be shared and discussed the following week. Through work to bring materials from Women’s Studies into the rest of the curriculum, I have often noticed men’s unwillingness to grant that they are over privileged, even though they may grant that women are disadvantaged. They may say they will work to improve women’s status, in the society, the university, or the curriculum, but they can’t or won’t support the idea of lessening men’s. Denials, which amount to taboos, surround the subject of advantages, which men gain from women’s disadvantages. These denials protect male privilege from being fully acknowledged, lessened or ended.

In Israel, desalinated water is a major source of drinking water. Previous studies have suggested that the levels of iodine in water provided by authorities may not accurately reflect the levels reaching end-users. Materials and Methods: We analyzed 21 tap water samples collected from different localities across Israel, 13 posttreated desalinated water samples from three of the largest Israeli desalination plants, and several natural water samples. An improved method of ICP-MS developed in our laboratory was used to analyze the content of iodine and other macro-elements, and determination of iodine was performed in alkaline media. Results: Our results showed that it is possible to distinguish between sample groups based on iodine concentration, water hardness, and Ca/Mg ratio. The median iodine concentrations for four groups of tap water samples ranged from 0.3 to 12.3 μg/L, which is lower than the concentrations previously reported by other researchers in Israel. Based on typical consumption, the water samples can provide no more than 3.39% of the recommended dietary allowance level for iodine. The analysis of post-treated desalinated water samples indicated that these waters comply with industrial specifications but contain only trace concentrations of iodine and much less magnesium than recommended by different public health authorities for public consumption of drinking water. Conclusion: The total iodine concentrations found were lower than several observations reported in previous years in the literature. There are currently no strict regulations regarding iodine and magnesium levels in drinking and/or softened (desalinated) water, but the intensive desalination plant application is already exhibiting a negative impact on public health. Further investigations are needed, but the present study provides useful insights for developing an effective policy to ensure adequate iodine supply for the population of Israel through drinking water.

Having products that are safe, and whose performance has been assessed and conditions of use specified (taking into account progress in knowledge, diversity and any specific aspects of crop situations) is a major issue for farmers, consumers, industry and the environment. The use of plant protection products may cause direct or indirect risks to humans, whether this be the user or the general population, as well as to ecosystems. Assessing pesticides before they can be placed on the market, and monitoring them post-authorisation, are vital to public and environmental health.

Water desalination has been extensively developed in Israel, particularly in the last decade. The desalination process provides fresh water that typically lacks minerals, and among these are ions that are essential to human health and/or to agricultural production, such as Mg. We analyzed 28 tap water samples originating from different cities across Israel to document their concentrations of Mg and other elements. The data from this survey (summer 2016) were compared with the results of similar observations conducted in 2008. Regarding toxic elements, tap water across Israel does not pose any health risk for consumers and may be used as drinking water without any household pretreatment. This condition has not changed since 2008. However, the problem of Mg deficiency due to the use of desalinated water was observed in about half of the sampling locations in 2016, whereas no Mg deficiency had been detected in 2008. Moreover, household filtration of tap water prior to consumption as drinking water may worsen the situation due to the Mg status resulting from rejection of this ion; this could be harmful to the consumer, particularly under prolonged exposure.
