Can you imagine what your community would accomplish if everyone who lived there had financial security? Would the citizens of that community have the time as well as the mental and emotional space to be more engaged in their community? An engaged community is a community which solves local issues that adversely affect the citizens of that locality. If all communities had this same level of engagement, could we overcome global issues? Finding a solution to poverty and financial insecurity is key to attaining greater community engagement. Universal Basic Income is a solution to poverty and financial insecurity, and ultimately, greater community engagement.
Redlining was coined in 1960 by a sociologist James McKnight.
The term basically refers to financial lenders drawing a redline around communities that they would invest in due to poor financial capabilities.
These areas were often occupied by people of color.
This practice encouraged institutionalized racism to run through the streets of these communities.

Everyone wants to live in a place where they have the chance to thrive. Read about three communities that are working to address poverty and build a thriving community.
There are big changes happening in the rural town of Hoffman, Minn. Just five years ago, Main Street storefronts stood empty and the population was in a steady decline. Now, local residents are actively working to build a vibrant, thriving community.
SAHARO works without regard to creed, race, gender, or ethnicity, and is one of the reputed humanitarian networks.
SAHARO provides a beacon of hope for thousands of women, men and children in times of hardship and contributes to the development of social justice in times of peace. Saharo’ mandate includes integral development, emergency relief, advocacy, peace building, respect for human rights and support for proper stewardship of the planet’s environment and resources.
The SAHARO approach is based on the social teaching, which focuses on the dignity of the human person. Saharo’ work on behalf of the poor manifests God’s love for all of creation.
SAHARO believes that the weak and oppressed are not objects of pity, but agents of change leading the struggle to eradicate dehumanizing poverty, unacceptable living and working conditions, and unjust social, political, economic and cultural structures.
What makes SAHARO unique is its ongoing presence in communities, before, during and after crisis situations. Important, too, is that being part of civil society and incorporating the perspective of the poor, Saharo can continuously adapt its strategies to an ever changing environment.
SAHARO fights poverty, exclusion, intolerance and discrimination. More importantly, it empowers people to participate fully in all matters affecting their lives, and it advocates on their behalf at national and international forums.
SAHARO promotes partnership: local autonomy is paramount in ensuring effective teamwork for the good of all. By pooling expertise and resources, SAHARO is able to identify issues at the grassroots, analyze them at national and international levels, and then take action locally, regionally and globally
If we're going to make progress in our communities and in our country, people from all backgrounds and views must work together to address racism and inequities. Check out three communities that are working to create racial equity.

“A food desert is an area that has limited access to affordable and nutritious food.”
Loss of culture and traditions around food due to colonization and globalism
“Foodways encompass the cultural practices, beliefs, origins, and lifeways that connect people to their food, including the meanings it brings to their lives” (The Canadian Geographer).
“One out of every four Indigenous people experience food insecurity compared to 1 in 9 Americans overall.” (Feeding America)
Nathaniel wurster line 5 midterm project unm crp 275 community change in a gl...Dr. J
When we discuss the erasure of cultures by globalization it is typically how languages, cultural practices, etc. disappear gradually due to the intermingling of people.
Line 5 presents a unique challenge because it could physically be a detriment to historic cultures and the lives of so many Americans due to industrial globalization.
An oil pipeline originally put under scrutiny due to its environmental threat is additionally a threat to the history and livelihood of Indigenous Peoples and other Michigan residents.
Enbridge Inc. is a Canadian energy corporation that operates Line 5 in Michigan and Wisconsin. Rather than pump petroleum (crude oil) from western Canada to eastern Canada along the southern boundary of Ontario the corporation has partnered with the aforementioned U.S. states to allow the pipeline to travel through the United States.
The pipeline is above ground for much of its length but descends beneath the Straits of Mackinac (connection of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron). Here the exposed pipeline runs just atop the lakebed. This exposed nature is what initially brought a great deal of attention to Line 5 and the environmental threat it posed to the Great Lakes. A leak or spill of any kind would be disastrous to Michigan’s natural environment as well as its fishing, shipping, and tourism industries.
Barelas is a small community located south of downtown Albuquerque
The Railyards is a 27-acre railyard repair facility located in the heart of the Barelas Neighborhood
The community was deeply affected by the employment of the railyards.
Loss of jobs and transportation accessibility due to globalization lead to the sharp economic decline and cultural erasure in the community
Revitalization projects within Barelas are becoming more common within the past 10 years, but still face many challenges.
Barelas began as a small Spanish farm community in 1662, a stop on the Camino Real.
ATSF Railroad arrives in Albuquerque in 1880, begins building shops in Barelas
The Railyards quickly become one of the largest employers in Abq, with a peak of 1,500 workers during WWII. Most of them being Chicano or immigrant workers.
Barelas becomes a popular travel destination after Rt 66 alignment in 1926 and the Barelas Bridge.

Currently our country is experiencing a national health crisis of opiate use and opiate related overdoses, with the corona virus causing these problems to only get worse. In 2019 the number of drug overdoses in the United States rose by 4.6% , for a total of 70,980, with 50,042 involving opioids (American Hospital Association, 2020)
It is estimated around 130 people die each day due to overdose and since 2010 a total of 400,000 deaths have occurred (DrugAbuse.Gov)
Following national trends New Mexico has seen an increase in reported overdoses since the early 2000s and in 2018 63.0% of drug overdose deaths involved opioids with a total of more than 338 fatalities.(DrugAbuse.Gov)
Transmission of bloodborne diseases such as HIV and Hepatitis C is also an issue among the population who use intravenously.

Recycled water is wastewater that has been processed through primary, secondary and tertiary treatment and disinfected with chlorine.
Man-made water recycling, also known as water reclamation or water reuse, centers on using treated wastewater.
Recycled water, also known as "greywater," derives from residential water uses such as the bath, shower, washing machine, sink etc.
Across the globe, 2 out of 10 people do not have access to safe drinking water, and in the U.S., many states face water shortages and droughts.
In the U.S., we spend billions of dollars treating water to drinking water quality when we use only 10% of it for drinking and cooking, then flush most of the rest down the toilet or drain.
All water is recycled and reused as a part of natural water processes such as the hydrologic cycle.
Recycling wastewater can extend water supplies, improve water quality, reduce discharge and disposal costs of wastewater, and save energy.
Using recycled water reduces reliance on scarce and expensive surface water. It can also minimize groundwater overdraft and reduce discharges of treated wastewater into rivers and oceans.
Reduces the need to import water over long distances or pump our limited groundwater supplies

In the past decades, the Rio Grande bosque in Albuquerque has been under significant stress due to drought, invasive species, climate change, wildfire, and other anthropogenic influences.
The bosque is a huge part of the local community, as it is home to a huge network of trails and attractions and visited regularly by hundreds of people year-round.
The preservation and restoration of urban forests around the globe such as this one is critical for conserving biodiversity in cities, providing access for people to enjoy natural beauty, and producing clean air and water.

Through permanently altering the Rio Grande, humans have placed this river, and the Rio Grande Cottonwood trees surrounding it, in a state of insecurity.
Rio Grande Cottonwood trees are not only a “keystone species,” meaning that they play an important ecological role in the Bosque and Middle Rio Grande ecosystem, they are also a culturally significant and generally beloved species of tree that have touched the hearts and minds of indigenous peoples, famous environmental writers, and countless others who bask in the shade of their instantly recognizable leaves on a stroll through the Bosque.
Earthships were born out of the revolutionary mind of Michael Reynolds during the 1970’s. Recently an architecture graduate, Michael began experimenting to find solutions to questions that haunt our society, possibly more so today than anytime before – waste management and affordable housing. Early conceptions surrounded making a ‘brick’ out of aluminum cans. This idea grew into the of concept of what Earthship construction includes today. Earthships are a sustainable building method in current use and application in many countries throughout the world. Scale can be modest, common or large with each home built in the manner of a self-functioning and regulating system.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance.

4. The origins of Food
Insecurity in America
- Food Insecurity began in the early 20th century
- America was mostly agrarian until the 1920’s
- Traditional communal lifestyles meant the
vulnerable were mostly cared for
- The Great Depression created modern insecurity:
despite overproduction, starvation became more
common
- Government involvement was prevalent during the
Depression, but receded since then to the present,
with a revolving door of programs
- The 1990’s saw a major increase in food insecurity
- Since 2000, food insecurity has hovered between
10% and 12%
5. Prevalence and distribution
- Food Desert: Areas without ready access to fresh,
healthy, affordable food. (10 miles in rural areas, 1 mile
in urban areas)
- Food Swamp: Areas where cheap, unhealthy food (such
as fast food) are the most common.
- Both are associated with poverty rates of 20% or greater
- In both, common foods are more expensive. Cereal can
be 25% more expensive, and milk 5%
- Food deserts and food swamps are most common in
black and hispanic neighborhoods in cities and rural
America, in particular the rural South
- The most impacted populations are: Veterans, the
disabled, African-Americans, children, single-parent
households, seniors
- Rural areas tend to be more food insecure than urban
areas, with about 15% of rural households being food
insecure
6. Food Insecurity
in Purdy
Q: About how much of the community do you regularly serve, and who do you believe is the most vulnerable?
“Monett is app. 8000 people, which we serve about 10% between the pantry and kitchen.” - Melissa Priest
“That population of our entire county would compare to the size of other Missouri towns such as Jefferson City, Cape
Girardeau, or Oakville. Although Cassville itself has a population of 3,300 people we are reaching out to serve the same number
of people similar to the population of a medium size city. The difference is that the residents we serve are spread out over the
entire county which expands to over 790 square miles overall. The most vulnerable are the homeless population. The next most
vulnerable groups would include the unemployed and those who do not have access to reliable transportation. Every month
Cassville Panty distributes an average of 550 to 575 food boxes to families comprised of 1,200 – 1,450 individuals.” - Janett

7. Causes of Food
Insecurity
Q: What do you believe is the cause of food insecurity in Barry county?
“We have several industries in Monett but wages are low, so even with 2 incomes in a family, it’s hard to make ends
meet.” - Melissa Priest
“In my opinion, widespread generational poverty is the major source of Barry county food insecurity. In addition,
economically challenged individuals living on fixed incomes in retirement or due to disability have no options available
to improve their circumstances. Another major cause of food insecurity is the predominant infiltration of the meth
drug culture and its consequences upon the disintegration of family units.” - Janett Mills
