The document discusses how arguments can be disguised and appear objective when they are actually subjective. It notes that facts alone can seem unbiased but are shaped by their context and ordering. As an example, a news story is presented about a protest that unfolds the argument to portray the protesters negatively through three sentences: first as a nuisance, then demanding unreasonable changes, and finally as criminals. This reveals how factual details can be crafted to guide the reader toward a particular interpretation.
Flash Gang: a social media connection such as Twitter is used to invite participants to a time and location, they do something like robbery or assault, and they split up. George Knox, NGCRC, June 15, 2011

Each technological age has been marked by a shift in how the industrial platform enables companies to rethink their business processes and create wealth. In the talk I argue that we are limiting our view of what this next industrial/digital age can offer because of how we read, measure and through that perceive the world (how we cherry pick data). Companies are locked in metrics and quantitative measures, data that can fit into a spreadsheet. And by that they see the digital transformation merely as an efficiency tool to the fossil fuel age. But we need to stretch further…

THE BIRMINGHAM CAMPAIGN: A TURNING POINT FOR CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE USATibAct
In 1963, Birmingham, Alabama, USA was
“the most segregated city in the South”
with strictly enforced separation of black
people and white people in public spaces.
The Civil Rights Movement had lost some
momentum and was in need of a victory,
so Fred Shuttlesworth’s local Alabama
Christian Movement for Human Rights
invited Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to col-
laborate in “The Birmingham Campaign”
or “Project C.” The “C” stood for con-
frontation: sustained, nonviolent action
to demand desegregation and equal employment opportunities for black residents
of Birmingham.

1.) Summary
The Movement for Black Lives (M4BL) is an association of gatherings through the United States which mean the safeguards of dark social orders. It was formed in 2014 as a reaction to constant and gradually noticeable forcefulness against black people, with the determination of making a combined front and creating a political stage (Vann, R. 2016). The collective is made up of more than 150 groups, with associates such as the Black Lives Matter Network, the National Conference of Black Lawyers, and the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, and certification from collections comprising Colour of Change, Race Forward, Brooklyn Movement Center, PolicyLink, Million Women March Cleveland, and ONE DC (Arnold, Eric K. 201). On July 24, 2015 the program principally gathered at Cleveland State University where somewhere in the range of 1,500 and 2,000 protestors collected to participate in open discussions and fights.
2.) Outline
At the point when agents state about the difficulty of Black Americans in the United States, their accentuation is predominately on the individuals who exist in city territories. They often debate the lack of funds for Black Americans in city and residential areas, concentrating on topics such as lack of teaching or occupation chances or the requirement for unlawful justice improvement due to over outlawing and under regulating. While these are recognizable issues that should be discussed, this lacking center disregards the issue of many Black Americans living outside of thickly populated city metro parts. Be that as it may, when agents talk about nation America, they evidently just focus on these territories' white individuals, disregarding the component that they are home to a significant number of Black Americans.
South has the lowermost degree of monetary adaptability for all socioeconomics. Related with different gatherings, Black Americans have principally low situations for upward adaptability and, in positive cases, are progressively plausible to encounter plummeting adaptability.
3.) Element of policy
One major policy is that call an end to the war against Black people. Since this nation’s start there have been called and unidentified wars on black societies. Through this policy they request an end to the outlawing, imprisonment, and killing of black individuals. This includes:
1. An instant end to the outlawing and dehumanization of Black adolescence across all parts of civilization.
2. A close to capital penalty.
3. A close to money bail, compulsory fines, dues, court prices.
4. A close the utilization of authentic criminal past to manage value for lodging, instruction, licenses, casting a ballot, credits, work, and different administrations and necessities.
5. An end to the war on Black outsiders
6. An end to the war on Black trans, eccentric and sexual orientation nonconformin ...

The current Platform of the Democratic Party. 49% of Americans say the Democratic Party is “too liberal”; current trends point to a polarization of the Democratic Party that began with "Reagan Democrats" in the 1980s. This polarization indicates the possibility of a future split within the party of "Democrats" and "Socialists". Many policies in the party today mirror the far left policies of European socialist parties.

BISC The Ballot Initiative Strategy Center How It Promotes Big Labor’s Politi...James Dellinger
In 2006, voters in 37 states faced a total of 203 state ballot initiatives and supporters and opponents of these measures raised and spent more than $350 million. Many ballot initiatives were sponsored and supported by labor unions, and often they received help from the little-known Washington, D.C.- based Ballot Initiative Strategy Center,
which quietly provides assistance in promoting ballot initiative campaigns in states where the initiative process exists.
But the Center plays another increasingly important role for Big Labor and its allies. It devises tactics for blocking
ballot initiatives by union opponents using aggressive methods.

• Today in Florida, protestors blocked sidewalks and caused undue
congestion in downtown Miami. The protestors were demanding a change
in voting statewide. When reached for comment, the Miami chief of police
said that two people were arrested for blocking the free flow of traffic, and
that everything was back to normal by 6:00 p.m.

14. Objective View
• Today in Florida, over five thousand protestors assembled in front of the
courthouse in Miami to draw attention to the inequity in voting technology
across the state. According to organizers, wealthier counties have more
updated voting technologies than poorer ones, and officials have yet to
address the disparity. Said Martha Krug, a voting rights advocate, “It’s un-
American, and against the basic principals of democracy.”
