The first selection is the concluding pages of Cyprian Davis' famous book The History of Black Catholics in the United States . It will give us a brief historical account to ground our discussion of race and the Christian tradition. 1. W rite a paragraph about what you learned from Davis' article regarding the Catholic Church and racial justice in the 20th century . Note that this article does not try to clear up some of the ambiguities surrounding race and Christianity... Davis is happy to simply provide you with some stories and offer his thoughts on their significance. So, your paragraph here should indicate that you recognize that things are rather complicated here! One strand you might want to keep an eye on is the relationship between theory and practice... in other words, how did theoretical teachings about race actually work out in real life? The second selection is an article by Brian Bantum, a Christian pastor and scholar. He argues here that Christians cannot be "post-racial" given our current state of affairs. 2. Being "post-racial" initially might sound like it could be a good thing... What does Bantum mean by the term "post-racial" and what are some of his reasons for saying that Christians cannot be "post-racial" (if you're stuck, think about his claims that "race matters" in various ways)? 3. On page 7, Bantum talks about 2 "beasts". Explain the difference between the "beast" of the 1960's and the "beast" of today. 4. Briefly discuss 2 examples from the text that show the difference that Bantum's Christian faith makes for how he understands the topic of race. (hint: he continually talks about discipleship, a word that you all should be familiar with by now...) .

The first Book Review is based upon required course readings that offer contemporary accounts of the lived experience of Confucianism and Islam. The reviews call for you to consider the contemporary expressions of these faiths and to reflect upon their relevance to your own and our collective societal experience--To consider how central teachings, principals and practices of these faith traditions could be introduced and implemented into your own life, experience and American culture so as to lend to your personal and our collective edification. In light of the above description from our course syllabus, your review of T.R. Reid’s book, Confucius Lives Next Door: What Living In The East Teaches Us About Living In the West, ought to consider the following: Reid and his family’s experience of Confucianism/the Confucian ethos during their residency in Japan in the 1990’s—An experience which he describes as East Asia’s Social Miracle. How Confucianism/the Confucian ethos is expressed in contemporary Japanese culture—Including, when relevant/pertinent, consideration and assessment of central Confucian tenets operative in and experienced by the Reid’s during their residency in contemporary Japan, e.g., evidence of the 5 Confucian Virtues ( jen , yi , li , chih and hsin ); the 5 Confucian Key Relationships and corresponding 10 Appropriate Attitudes; the Confucian Doctrine of the Mean; Rectification; etc. What lessons we can take from the Confucian/Japanese experience that might contribute to a better social experience in our culture and to the improvement of ourselves as individuals. Additionally: Allow the review to be an occasion by which you reflect upon and consider aspects, anecdotes and aspects of the book and the experience of the Reid’s which particularly struck you in some way—positively and/or negatively—and critically engage and assess why this was the case. This may lead some to gravitate on issues relevant to education or crime or social analysis or economics or cultural rites of passage or interpersonal relationships or…In short, there is freedom for you to pursue points of particular interest to you and/or relevant to your major… .

Your boss will present the information to various users, so current and future decisions can be determined about your government entity. Using your CAFR, prepare a 10- to 12-slide presentation responding to the following: Compare private sector financial accounting with accounting for government and not-for-profit organizations. Describe the purpose of government accounting and financial reporting. What types of funds are listed on the fund financial statements from the CAFR? How are the fund balances reported? Did the general fund show an increase or decrease in the fund balance? What does this mean? What are the primary financial statements issued for the funds? What about total government activities? Which statement shows whether your entity is financially better or worse for the year? Why is there a reconciliation required between the fund financial statements and government wide statements? Is there a budget to actually schedule in the CAFR? What basis did your entity use to prepare the budget? Are there any limitations of the budget to actual comparisons? .

The final project for this course requires you to communicate your analysis of a text multi-modally. Theories of multi-modal communication recognize that we experience the world through multiple senses simultaneously. It’s through these senses that we make sense of the world. Analyzing multi-modally provides an opportunity for you to better understand your chosen topic and to work on your communication skills. The project is divided into 2 parts: the proposal paper andthe final project. The purpose of the proposal is to explain your project. The proposal should specify which text or texts you’ve chosen to work with, which modes of communication your project will incorporate, why you’ve chosen the text(s), why those modes of communication are best suited to your analysis, and how those modes of communication will come together in your project. For example, if I chose to work with two poems from the last unit of the course I would start by naming which poems and explaining why they interest me. Then I would specify which modes of communication I would be incorporating and why. I might choose to work with visual, verbal, and aural communication, for example, if I were working with poetry because poetry communicates much of its meaning through figurative language and sound. Finally, I would explain how those modes of communication would work together in the project—I might be working with visual art, such as painting or drawing, and music; or I might be working with digital art and a voice recording. You don’t need to know your exact thesis or which theme you’ll be focusing on, at times that only becomes clear once you start the work of analysis. Requirements: 500-600 words, double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font, MLA format .

The film BARAKA is described as non-verbal spiritual meditation on the relationship between humans and nature. The film consists of three segments representing the following themes: the beauty of the natural world and the spiritual world, the negative impacts of humans/technology on the natural and spiritual worlds and the reconnection between humans and nature via spirituality/religion. From this perspective, spirituality is at the center of the relationship between humans and nature and its also the means by which humans connect or reconnect with nature. Our text book presents a different perspective. According to our text, technology is the means by which humans adapt to, interact with and make sense out of nature. Technology is what allows us as humans to live fully within an otherwise powerful and somewhat uncontrollable natural world. From this perspective, technology, rather than spirituality, is at the center of the relationship between humans and nature and the means by which humans connect or reconnect with nature. How do you perceive, based on your personal experience, the relationship between humans, technology, nature, and religion/spirituality? Do you agree with the perspective of the film? With the text? A combination of the two? Neither? Be specific in your argument and use examples from the film, text, and your experience to support your argument. .

The film I chose is " The Wizard of Oz". Reflect There are many ways in which technology is affecting the production, distribution, and appreciation of films. For example, think of how CGI, animation, and other advances in digital technology have changed the ways in which stories are told on film. Then, consider how the Internet has changed the way we access, evaluate, and discuss films. Choose a film and discuss the importance of technological advancements to its success as a mode of storytelling. How might it have been told differently, for better or worse, without these technological advancements? Your initial post should be at least 200 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. .

The fear that this population feels is not fear of the diagnosis “but by the structural relations defining the economic condition of a low-income, immigrant community that intersect with the incidence of chronic disease” ( Page-Reeves, Niforatos, Mishra, Regino, Gingrich, & Bulten, 2013 ). It is very disheartening that people fear the social part of medicine so much that they will go without medical help and face the consequences of undiagnosed diabetes which just gets more complicated the further the disease progresses. Ultimately when they do seek help it is more expensive and more intensive. This is a difficult situation for this specific ethnic group.

The Extra Credit Assignment In Topic 6 you and your classmates considered Lin-Manuel Miranda’s choice of Alexander Hamilton as an archetypical American. For this extra credit assignment choose one person about whom you have learned this summer session who you think is an archetypical American and explain what “American” characteristics you think they embody.  You may not choose Alexander Hamilton. Rather, for this assignment, I want you to find your own Hamilton!  Your assignment should be at least 500 words.  Your choice must appear in Out of Many and/or in one of the assigned primary or secondary sources. But a lot of interesting historical figures from lesser-known people like Phyllis Wheatley or James Otis to even well-known people, like Pocahontas, Thomas Jefferson, Frederick Douglas, or Abraham Lincoln  only get brief coverage in the assigned reading due to time-constraints. So, for this assignment I want you to do a bit of additional research. In your essay, in addition to drawing on information from the assigned reading, also incorporate information from one good-quality internet source. The website you use must end in .edu (= associated with a college or university), .gov (= associated with the US government), or .pbs.org (= associated with PBS).

The Estrangement of Labour , page 1 of 3 We shall start out from an actual economic fact. The worker becomes poorer the more wealth he produces, the more his production increases in power and extent. The worker becomes an ever cheaper commodity the more commodities he produces. The devaluation of the human world grows in direct proportion to the increase in value of the world of things. Labour not only produces commodities; it also produces itself and the workers as a commodity and it does so in the same proportion in which it produces commodities in general. This fact simply means that the object that labour produces, its product, stands opposed to it as something alien, as a power independent of the producer …. The realization of labour is its objectification. In the sphere of political economy, this realization of labour appears as a loss of reality for the worker, objectification as loss of and bondage to the object, and appropriation as estrangement, as alienation. So much does the realization of labour appear as loss of reality that the worker loses his reality to the point of dying of starvation. So much does objectification appear as loss of the object that the worker is robbed of the objects he needs most not only for life but also for work. Work itself becomes an object which he can only obtain through an enormous effort and with spasmodic interruptions. So much does the appropriation of the object appear as estrangement that the more objects the worker produces the fewer can he possess and the more he falls under the domination of his product, of capital …. The Estrangement of Labour , page 2 of 3 Up to now, we have considered the estrangement, the alienation of the worker, only from one aspect—i.e., the worker's relationship to the products of his labour. But estrangement manifests itself not only in the result, but also in the act of production, within the activity of production itself. After all, the product is simply the resume of the activity, of the production. So if the product of labour is alienation, production itself must be active alienation, the alienation of activity, the activity of alienation. The estrangement of the object of labour merely summarizes the estrangement, the alienation in the activity of labour itself. What constitutes the alienation of labour? Firstly, the fact that labour is external to the worker—i.e., does not belong to his essential being; that he, therefore, does not confirm himself in his work, but denies himself, feels miserable and not happy, does not develop free mental and physical energy, but mortifies his flesh and ruins his mind. Hence, the worker feels himself only when he is not working; when he is working, he does not feel himself. His labour is, therefore, not voluntary but forced, it is forced labour. It is, therefore, not the satisfaction of a need but a mere means to satisfy needs outside itself. Its alien character is clearly demonstrated by the fact that as soon as no physical or.

The end of the Civil War left the United States in tatters. The southern states that had seceded from the Union in the interests of preserving the right to own slaves were devastated economically from four years of war. The northern states that had emerged as victors in the Civil War also had suffered. The task that faced the nation was not only one of reuniting two constituencies who had bitterly fought one another but also of finding a way to heal. The healing, many says, is still continuing. We will reflect on the process of healing a divided nation in this brief essay. Please do the following: Complete the module’s assigned readings, and view the assigned video presentations. Write an essay of 250-500 words (1-2 pages, typewritten and double-spaced) that connects the thoughts that President Obama shared with the nation in his 2013 Inaugural Address with the primary source documents from Voices of Freedom and Foner Online. Focus the essay around these questions: In what ways did the 13 th , 14 th , and 15 th amendments to the Constitution initiate a “more perfect union”? How is the nation more united in 2016 than it was in 1865? How is the nation more divided today than at the end of the Civil War? Please end with a reflection on what you think could be done to realize the vision that Obama evokes in his inaugural address. When completing this writing assignment be sure to address the roles that different societal institutions such as governmental bodies, military forces, businesses, and churches played in America during this time period and how the dynamics of race, gender, class, and religion informed the development of American institutions. .

The emergence of modern science began as a move from theological-based reasoning to observational- and empirically-based reasoning. Two areas of reasoning evolved from this time, inductive and deductive. For example, Galileo, using mathematics and observation, explained the laws of the physical world through deductive reasoning. Francis Bacon, however, sought answers to questions of the physical world through observation and devised many theories from these observations. Cartesian dualism is one school of thought that examined the mind-body relationship. Several branches of scientific thought developed which was based in part on the philosophical underpinnings of the region (e.g. British, French and German). These included positivism, rationalism, and empiricism. From these philosophical views emerged a focus on understanding behavior or more precisely the mind. Compare and contrast the views of Galileo and Bacon. Explain why these two scientists had an impact on the development of psychology. Compare the basic principles of Rene Descartes, Immanuel Kant, and John Locke. How do these principles differ in their perspectives of the mind-body relationship? What do these principles add to the comprehensive understanding of psychology as a science? Explain the cultural and even nationalistic influences on how the different schools of thought developed (positivism, rationalism, and empiricism)? Explain how theological or religious beliefs influence the different schools of thought as they had done to the philosophical views of early centuries? Justify your answers with appropriate research and reasoning. Comment on the postings of at least two peers. Provide an analysis of each peer’s postings while also suggesting specific additions or clarifications for improving the discussion question response. .

The Dynamic Earth Research Paper Assignment This is to be a research-based paper in which you explore a specific aspect of an Earth science topic in more detail than is covered in the class. You are to find out what the experts think about the topic and report on the rationale for their understanding, that is, upon what experimental and observational evidence and logic do they base their conclusions. You can choose any topic of interest to you that is related to the Earth science topics that we covered in class. However make sure that it is specific enough that you can cover it well in the paper. This should not be a general overview paper. Some sample topics are listed at the end, but you are not limited to these topics. Your thesis in the paper should be supported by facts obtained from research. A minimum of four sources must be used. They should include at least one book other than the textbook or other reference book (either in print or in electronic format from the library database) or an article from peer-reviewed academic journals. Web-based materials should come from credible sources. University-related and government agency websites generally have credible scientific information, while personal and business-related sites should be treated with healthy skepticism. Although you may not find books that directly addresses the issue about which you are writing, you may find one that addresses necessary background or general supporting information about your topic. Reference material (e.g. encyclopedias, dictionaries, your textbook) do not count toward your four references, although you are welcome to use them. You should credit your sources whenever you quote from or paraphrase a source. Additionally, you should always cite your source for any statements made in the essay that are not general knowledge (because you presumably obtained them from one of your sources). For instance if you state that 98 percent of all the fish in the ocean are green, you will want to cite your source. A bibliography page, or works cited page, should be located on a separate page immediately following the body of your essay. It should contain the list of works used listed alphabetically by last name of lead author. Although I will not be extremely picky about the formatting of the works cited page, I do expect all the information needed to locate each source, and I expect it to roughly follow the standard formatting used in composition classes. Be sure to include the date of access for URL’s. The paper should be 5-8 pages long, typewritten, double spaced, and written in a standard (and legible) font (12 point Times New Roman for example). It is to be submitted electronically via Isidore, where it will be checked by Turnitin.com. The paper is due by the end of the last day of class (12/9/2016). Sample topics: 1. Select a recent natural disaster, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, flood, and hurricanes, provide a detailed geological/hydrological.
