The document discusses civil liberties and discrimination. It begins by defining civil liberties as freedoms constitutionally protected from government overreach, such as those outlined in historical documents like the Magna Carta and the US Constitution's Bill of Rights. It then discusses the founding of the US and the creation of the Constitution to provide strong central government while protecting individual rights and liberties. The document also defines key terms related to discrimination like race, racism, discrimination, stereotyping, and racial profiling. It notes that discrimination limits opportunities based on differences rather than individual merit. Finally, it discusses how the Constitution aims to balance national security and civil liberties, and that human resource leaders must understand discrimination laws.

The document discusses the meaning and importance of the phrase "We the People" in the US Constitution. It provides three key points:
1) "We the People" establishes that the government's power comes from the people and that it must respect individual rights and be limited in scope.
2) The Constitution includes provisions like checks and balances, separation of powers, and the Bill of Rights to prevent abuse of government power.
3) These foundational principles are still highly relevant today in limiting government overreach and protecting civil liberties, though some argue the federal government has grown beyond what the founders envisioned.
Critical Race Theory (CRT) examines how race and racism influence American society. It traces how racism has manifested through history in areas like law, literature, and film. CRT scholars seek to understand how systemic racism affects victims and how they represent themselves in response. They also aim to confront and challenge beliefs and practices that enable racism to persist, in order to work toward liberating society from systemic racism and inequality.

Abstract
This article addresses the prospect of ending racism and
discrimination in the United States. It begins by defining racism
and discrimination and differentiating individual prejudice from
institutional racism. It then reviews the extent of social change
that has lead to a decline, to an extent, in racism and
discrimination since the middle of the twentieth century, as well
as the continuing significance of racism and discrimination in
the lives of people of color. People have proposed various ways
of reducing or ending racism and discrimination. This article
reviews three such proposals: increased multicultural education,
reforms to the legal system, and radical social change. It also
considers the argument that eradicating racism and discrimination
in the United States is impossible as well as the argument that
eradicating racism and discrimination is unnecessary.
Overview
When most people think about the term racism, they think of the
various attitudes and beliefs individuals may hold about different
racial groups, particularly negative stereotypes about one or
more racial groups as well as the opinion that one's own racial
group is superior. To sociologists, this common understanding of
racism is more accurately termed "prejudice." It is hard to get
a good sense of what percentage of Americans continue to hold
prejudiced views about other racial groups. When asked survey
questions about their opinions of other races, few Americans give
answers that suggest that they hold prejudiced views, and these
figures have declined substantially since the mid-to-late twentieth
century. However, there is evidence that surveys designed to elicit
individuals' racist views suffer from something called interviewer
effect. What this means is that when surveyors ask certain
questions, survey respondents will give what they believe are
the socially desirable responses rather than their actual beliefs or
opinions.
Despite both the uncertainty about how many Americans
continue to hold racist views and the fact that the percentage
of Americans holding such views has declined over time,
racism continues to have significance in American life. In
addition to individual racism, institutional racism occurs within
organizations like the government, corporations, schools, and
law enforcement. While individual prejudice may result in a
person experiencing a racial slur or a hate crime, institutional
racism is responsible for many of the inequalities between racial
groups, such as poverty and segregation. Institutional racism
can continue even when there is no individual racist person
within an institution. Instead, institutional racism is manifested
in the policies and practices built into an institution that lead to
racist outcomes. For example, if a mortgage company redlined
a neighborhood forty years ago b ...
Law as a Process of Human Communication: Marriage and Human Rights Values Rel...Dr. Aitza Haddad Nuñez
The document discusses several key Supreme Court cases related to marriage from 1967 to 2003. Loving v. Virginia (1967) struck down laws banning interracial marriage. Baker v. Nelson (1971) was one of the first cases to address same-sex marriage, with the Minnesota Supreme Court ruling that marriage was restricted to opposite-sex couples. The era saw a shift from addressing miscegenation to addressing privacy in marriage and relationships, laying the groundwork for future same-sex marriage cases.
This document summarizes key concepts from a training on domestic violence advocacy. It discusses intersectionality and how various "isms" like racism, sexism, and classism interconnect to oppress certain groups and privilege others. It then examines the four levels of oppression: ideology, in which one group believes its ideas and beliefs are superior; institutional, where oppressive policies and laws are enacted; interpersonal, allowing disrespect and mistreatment of oppressed groups; and internalized, where the oppressed group accepts its own oppression. Understanding these levels and intersectionality is important for advocates to recognize their own privilege and help dismantle systems of oppression.

Excerpt,
Federalist No. 39
James Madison
…The proposed government cannot be deemed a NATIONAL one; since its jurisdiction extends to certain
enumerated objects only, and leaves to the several States a
residuary and inviolable
sovereignty over all other objects. It is true that in controversies relating to the boundary between the two jurisdictions, the
tribunal which is ultimately to decide, is to be established under the general government. But this does not change the principle of the case. The decision is to be impartially made, according to the rules of the Constitution; and all the usual and most effectual precautions are taken to secure this impartiality. Some such tribunal is clearly essential to prevent an appeal to the sword and a dissolution of the compact; and that it ought to be established under the general rather than under the local governments, or, to speak more properly, that it could be safely established under the first alone, is a position not likely to be combated.
If we try the Constitution by its last relation to the authority by which amendments are to be made, we find it neither wholly
NATIONAL nor wholly
FEDERAL. Were it wholly national, the supreme and ultimate authority would reside in the MAJORITY of the people of the Union; and this authority would be competent at all times, like that of a majority of every national society, to alter or abolish its established government. Were it wholly federal, on the other hand, the concurrence of each State in the Union would be essential to every alteration that would be binding on all…
The proposed Constitution, therefore, is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal Constitution, but a composition of both. In its foundation it is federal, not national; in the sources from which the ordinary powers of the government are drawn, it is partly federal and partly national; in the operation of these powers, it is national, not federal; in the extent of them, again, it is federal, not national; and, finally, in the authoritative mode of introducing amendments, it is neither wholly federal nor wholly national.

Now the Earth has had wide variations in atmospheric CO2-level throu.docxhoney725342
Now the Earth has had wide variations in atmospheric CO2-level throughout its long history before the evolution of humans and certainly before the Industrial Revolutions.In terms of the oceans and the Earth's whole history then could you find information to support the coal and oil industry's claims that we're NOT the cause of climate change? Do some research and cite other factors in climate besides CO2 levels that would support your claims. Also read the attached article about the controversy. Remember too that there is a lot of money and certainly politics involved in this issue. Some scientists have built their whole careers on trying to prove or disprove the human connections to global warming.
As you'll see when you do your research the figures for sea-level rise are all over the place. That's because they're based on models that are even more complex than hurricane tracking models (they drive even supercomputers nuts).
Now the term
"sea-level"
is relative. If you check a geologic map you'll see that just about every piece of land on Earth has been underwater at least once. That's why sedimentary rocks are the most common type of land surface rock. Sea-level has been up and down thousands of times in the Earth's long history. We're just living on the "latest edition" of our planet. Also the one thing that I want everybody to learn from this course: we live on the Earth and we certainly affect it but
we
DO NOT control it
even though we like to think we do. We're just riding this wet rock through space.
As for the continuing scientific controversy check out this recent article:

NR224 Fundamentals SkillsTopic Safety Goals BOOK P.docxhoney725342
This document discusses a nursing fundamentals skills assignment on safety goals. The assignment introduces students to the National Patient Safety Goals developed by The Joint Commission, specifically the Speak Up Initiatives program, which is designed to empower patients to take an active role in their own healthcare safety by speaking up about concerns. The document provides guidelines for the assignment and references a nursing fundamentals textbook for further information.
Clinical mentors were interviewed about their experiences mentoring culturally and linguistically diverse nursing students. Mentors stated that empathy motivated them but they experienced a lack of support which caused strain. While mentors initially had fears of unknown cultures, positive mentoring experiences reduced this fear. Continuous education on intercultural communication could help mentors develop expertise to benefit students, patients, and staff.
Now that you’ve seen all of the elements contributing to the Devil’s.docxhoney725342
Now that you’ve seen all of the elements contributing to the Devil’s Canyon enterprise architecture, Justin wants to move forward with developing privacy policies to ensure videos aren’t distributed or uploaded to the net without the consent of the people in them. This opens a much larger conversation: Devil’s Canyon is also in need of a complete security plan, as well as risk assessments.
In a 2- to 3-page rationale and table,
prepare
the following information to present to the Devil’s Canyon team:
Explain the relationship between policies and security plans. Identify potential policy needs, noting Justin’s privacy policy, in relation to the Devil’s Canyon enterprise structure.
Outline the importance of a security plan in relation to security roles and safeguards.
Analyze at least 5 security-related risks/threats that Devil’s Canyon may face.
Assess the probability and impact to the Devil’s Canyon if each risk occurs. Based on these two factors, determine the overall risk level. For purposes of this assignment, evaluate and categorize each factor as low, medium, or high, and create a table to illustrate the risks. For example, a risk/threat with a low likelihood of occurrence and a high impact would represent an overall medium risk.
Consider digital elements mentioned in the designing of the enterprise architecture, such as software, hardware, proposed security measures, smart lift tickets, web cam systems, and smartphones.

The first thing that should be noted is that psych nursing is a recent academic option, which is highly relevant that more people are trained in it and help to broaden and deepen the scientific foundation of the care it offers. Although the psych nurses are already able to carry out different activities without the need for another health professional to indicate them, it is important that they can acquire greater independence so that their contribution is even greater, which is my first professional development goal. Therefore, the degree in psych nursing must be strengthened, with studies and evidence that allow the framework of the work of those who practice it to grow and, in turn, encourage its professionals to intervene promptly to avoid complicating the medical situation of a patient.
I would like to be supportive, have a vocation for service, be responsible, and be organized. It is these basic qualities that will allow me to develop a nursing career. The organization and responsibility would be oriented there because the nurse, by nat.

Now, for the exam itself. Below are 4 questions. You need to answer 2 of them with a mix of your ideas, quotes from the text, and some secondary research (non-Wikipedia, non-Litcharts). I am looking for about 5 pages for both mini-essays combined. The due date will be April 9 by 11:59pm. No extensions.
Questions:
1. Often we attribute cowardice for Hamlet’s lack of action in the face of an obvious call for revenge. Is there some other way to view Hamlet the character?
2. The death of Ophelia comes as a result of the dual grief for the loss of her father and the loss of her true love . Why would you say that Hamlet reacts so radically different to the same circumstances?
3. What would you say is the horror that Kurtz sees in his mind’s eye moments before his death? Is it simply a late late condemnation of colonialism?
4. Marlowe’s lie in Chapter 3 has been written about to death in academic circles. Gather two analytical interpretations of the lie and offer me another way of looking at this climactic moment.

Watson’s philosophy and science of caring has four major concepts: human being, health, environment/society, and nursing Butts & Rich, 2015). In Watson’s view, the disease might be cured, but illness would remain because, without caring, health is not attained. Caring is the essence of nursing and connotes responsiveness between the nurse and the person; the nurse co-participates with the person. Watson contends that caring can assist the person to gain control, become knowledgeable, and promote health changes.
According to Watson (2009), the core of the Theory of Caring is that “humans cannot be treated as objects and that humans cannot be separated from self, other, nature, and the larger workforce.” Her theory encompasses the whole world of nursing; with the emphasis placed on the interpersonal process between the caregiver and care recipient. The theory is focused on “the centrality of human caring and on the caring-to-caring transpersonal relationship and its healing potential for both the one who is caring and the one who is being cared for” (Watson, 2009). The structure for the science of caring is built upon ten carative factors. Among them are human altruistic values, faith-hope, sensitivity to one’s self or other, trust, human caring relationship, and promotion of self-expression (.
Watson defines Human being as a valued person to be cared for, respected, nurtured, understood, and assisted, in general a philosophical view of a person as a fully functional integrated self. Personhood is viewed as greater than and different from the sum of his or her parts which are mind-body-soul-connection (Butt & Rich 2015)
The personhood concept in Watson theory of caring implies that patients are not all the same. Each person brings a unique background of experiences, values, and cultural perspective to health care encounter. Caring facilitates a nurse’s ability to know a patient, allowing the nurse to recognize a patient’s problem and find and implement individualized solution on the patient’s unique needs.
Knowing the person allows the nurse to avoid assumptions, to center on the one cared for (Keller, 2013). It also gives the nurse to opportunity to assess thoroughly by seeking clues to clarify the issue that the individual is going through.
The concept of personhood also integrates the human caring processes with healing environment, incorporating the life-generating and life receiving processes of human caring and healing for nurses and their patient. The concept put emphasis on developing a caring relationship with the person as a nurse and listen to the person’ stories to fully understand the meaning an impact of the individual’s condition. This information and understanding helps in the development and delivery of individualized patient centered care. The transpersonal caring theory rejects disease orientation to health care and places care before cure. When the .

Abstract
With obesity affecting approximately 12.5 million American youth,
population-level interventions are indicated to help support healthy
behaviors. The purpose of this review is to provide a summary of
population-level intervention strategies and specific intervention exam-
ples that illustrate ways to help prevent and control obesity in children
through improving nutrition and physical activity behaviors. Informa-
tion is summarized within the settings where children live, learn, and
play (early care and education, school, community, health care, home).
Intervention strategies are activities or changes intended to promote
healthful behaviors in children. They were identified from (a) systematic
reviews; (b) evidence- and expert consensus–based recommendations,
guidelines, or standards from nongovernmental or federal agencies;
and finally (c) peer-reviewed synthesis reviews. Intervention examples
illustrate how at least one of the strategies was used in a particular
setting. To identify interventions examples, we considered (a) peer-
reviewed literature as well as (b) additional sources with research-tested
and practice-based initiatives. Researchers and practitioners may use
this review as they set priorities and promote integration across settings
and to find research- and practice-tested intervention examples that can
be replicated in their communities for childhood obesity prevention.

Now the Earth has had wide variations in atmospheric CO2-level throu.docxhoney725342
Now the Earth has had wide variations in atmospheric CO2-level throughout its long history before the evolution of humans and certainly before the Industrial Revolutions.In terms of the oceans and the Earth's whole history then could you find information to support the coal and oil industry's claims that we're NOT the cause of climate change? Do some research and cite other factors in climate besides CO2 levels that would support your claims. Also read the attached article about the controversy. Remember too that there is a lot of money and certainly politics involved in this issue. Some scientists have built their whole careers on trying to prove or disprove the human connections to global warming.
As you'll see when you do your research the figures for sea-level rise are all over the place. That's because they're based on models that are even more complex than hurricane tracking models (they drive even supercomputers nuts).
Now the term
"sea-level"
is relative. If you check a geologic map you'll see that just about every piece of land on Earth has been underwater at least once. That's why sedimentary rocks are the most common type of land surface rock. Sea-level has been up and down thousands of times in the Earth's long history. We're just living on the "latest edition" of our planet. Also the one thing that I want everybody to learn from this course: we live on the Earth and we certainly affect it but
we
DO NOT control it
even though we like to think we do. We're just riding this wet rock through space.

NR224 Fundamentals SkillsTopic Safety Goals BOOK P.docxhoney725342
This document discusses a nursing fundamentals skills assignment on safety goals. The assignment introduces students to the National Patient Safety Goals developed by The Joint Commission, specifically the Speak Up Initiatives program, which is designed to empower patients to take an active role in their own healthcare safety by speaking up about concerns. The document provides guidelines for the assignment and references a nursing fundamentals textbook for further information.
Clinical mentors were interviewed about their experiences mentoring culturally and linguistically diverse nursing students. Mentors stated that empathy motivated them but they experienced a lack of support which caused strain. While mentors initially had fears of unknown cultures, positive mentoring experiences reduced this fear. Continuous education on intercultural communication could help mentors develop expertise to benefit students, patients, and staff.
Now that you’ve seen all of the elements contributing to the Devil’s.docxhoney725342
Now that you’ve seen all of the elements contributing to the Devil’s Canyon enterprise architecture, Justin wants to move forward with developing privacy policies to ensure videos aren’t distributed or uploaded to the net without the consent of the people in them. This opens a much larger conversation: Devil’s Canyon is also in need of a complete security plan, as well as risk assessments.
In a 2- to 3-page rationale and table,
prepare
the following information to present to the Devil’s Canyon team:
Explain the relationship between policies and security plans. Identify potential policy needs, noting Justin’s privacy policy, in relation to the Devil’s Canyon enterprise structure.
Outline the importance of a security plan in relation to security roles and safeguards.
Analyze at least 5 security-related risks/threats that Devil’s Canyon may face.
Assess the probability and impact to the Devil’s Canyon if each risk occurs. Based on these two factors, determine the overall risk level. For purposes of this assignment, evaluate and categorize each factor as low, medium, or high, and create a table to illustrate the risks. For example, a risk/threat with a low likelihood of occurrence and a high impact would represent an overall medium risk.
Consider digital elements mentioned in the designing of the enterprise architecture, such as software, hardware, proposed security measures, smart lift tickets, web cam systems, and smartphones.

The first thing that should be noted is that psych nursing is a recent academic option, which is highly relevant that more people are trained in it and help to broaden and deepen the scientific foundation of the care it offers. Although the psych nurses are already able to carry out different activities without the need for another health professional to indicate them, it is important that they can acquire greater independence so that their contribution is even greater, which is my first professional development goal. Therefore, the degree in psych nursing must be strengthened, with studies and evidence that allow the framework of the work of those who practice it to grow and, in turn, encourage its professionals to intervene promptly to avoid complicating the medical situation of a patient.

Nur-501-AP4- Philosophical and Theoretical Evidence-Based research
Watson’s philosophy and science of caring has four major concepts: human being, health, environment/society, and nursing Butts & Rich, 2015). In Watson’s view, the disease might be cured, but illness would remain because, without caring, health is not attained. Caring is the essence of nursing and connotes responsiveness between the nurse and the person; the nurse co-participates with the person. Watson contends that caring can assist the person to gain control, become knowledgeable, and promote health changes.
According to Watson (2009), the core of the Theory of Caring is that “humans cannot be treated as objects and that humans cannot be separated from self, other, nature, and the larger workforce.” Her theory encompasses the whole world of nursing; with the emphasis placed on the interpersonal process between the caregiver and care recipient. The theory is focused on “the centrality of human caring and on the caring-to-caring transpersonal relationship and its healing potential for both the one who is caring and the one who is being cared for” (Watson, 2009). The structure for the science of caring is built upon ten carative factors. Among them are human altruistic values, faith-hope, sensitivity to one’s self or other, trust, human caring relationship, and promotion of self-expression (.
Watson defines Human being as a valued person to be cared for, respected, nurtured, understood, and assisted, in general a philosophical view of a person as a fully functional integrated self. Personhood is viewed as greater than and different from the sum of his or her parts which are mind-body-soul-connection (Butt & Rich 2015)
The personhood concept in Watson theory of caring implies that patients are not all the same. Each person brings a unique background of experiences, values, and cultural perspective to health care encounter. Caring facilitates a nurse’s ability to know a patient, allowing the nurse to recognize a patient’s problem and find and implement individualized solution on the patient’s unique needs.
Knowing the person allows the nurse to avoid assumptions, to center on the one cared for (Keller, 2013). It also gives the nurse to opportunity to assess thoroughly by seeking clues to clarify the issue that the individual is going through.
The concept of personhood also integrates the human caring processes with healing environment, incorporating the life-generating and life receiving processes of human caring and healing for nurses and their patient. The concept put emphasis on developing a caring relationship with the person as a nurse and listen to the person’ stories to fully understand the meaning an impact of the individual’s condition. This information and understanding helps in the development and delivery of individualized patient centered care. The transpersonal caring theory rejects disease orientation to health care and places care before cure. When the .

Abstract
With obesity affecting approximately 12.5 million American youth,
population-level interventions are indicated to help support healthy
behaviors. The purpose of this review is to provide a summary of
population-level intervention strategies and specific intervention exam-
ples that illustrate ways to help prevent and control obesity in children
through improving nutrition and physical activity behaviors. Informa-
tion is summarized within the settings where children live, learn, and
play (early care and education, school, community, health care, home).
Intervention strategies are activities or changes intended to promote
healthful behaviors in children. They were identified from (a) systematic
reviews; (b) evidence- and expert consensus–based recommendations,
guidelines, or standards from nongovernmental or federal agencies;
and finally (c) peer-reviewed synthesis reviews. Intervention examples
illustrate how at least one of the strategies was used in a particular
setting. To identify interventions examples, we considered (a) peer-
reviewed literature as well as (b) additional sources with research-tested
and practice-based initiatives. Researchers and practitioners may use
this review as they set priorities and promote integration across settings
and to find research- and practice-tested intervention examples that can
be replicated in their communities for childhood obesity prevention.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

- Equality and DiscriminationCivil LibertiesCivil libertie.docx
1. - Equality and Discrimination
Civil Liberties
Civil liberties are "the freedoms of all persons that are
constitutionally protected against government restraint" (Burns,
Peltason, Cronin, O'Brien, & Magleby, 2004). Civil liberties
have been extended to a nation's citizens (and often noncitizens)
in various forms for centuries. One example is the Magna Carta,
or Great Charter, granted by King John of England in 1215,
which limited the king's arbitrary rule over his subjects. A more
enduring example is the U.S. Constitution, with its Bill of
Rights and amendments.
The Constitution of the United States: History and Function
The American Colonies, after winning independence from
England in 1781, attempted to exist as a confederation—a loose
group of states with largely independent governments. By 1787,
the leaders of the Revolution realized that this was not working
and called a convention in Philadelphia. Mindful of the need to
provide a strong central government that would lead but not
overwhelm, they designed the Constitution, which was ratified
by all 13 colonies. It provided for three branches of government
(executive, legislative, and judicial) that have separate but
interdependent powers and responsibilities. It also provided for
states' rights and jurisdiction. Finally, the Constitution and the
first set of amendments added in 1791, known as the Bill of
Rights, provided protection to the people from excessive or
arbitrary governance. The Constitution's principles and intent
apply in every era, even in our changing world. It was relevant
in the 1700s and continues to be relevant today.
Civil Liberties under the Constitution and Bill of Rights
2. Regardless of what laws might be in effect or which judge may
be ruling at a trial, the drafters of the Constitution wanted to
protect several basic freedoms. Therefore, they created the Bill
of Rights, which guarantees fundamental rights.
Freedom of speech, freedom of worship, the right to bear arms,
and protection against unreasonable search and seizure were all
rights granted at one time under other governments. In most
cases, however, they only applied to certain classes of people or
were granted and rescinded on a ruler's whim.
Other provisions in the Bill of Rights protect people in unique
situations, such as those criminally accused. The Fifth and Sixth
Amendments provide those accused with the right to an
attorney, the right to a speedy trial, protection from testifying
against themselves, and the right to have witnesses speak in
their favor.
The Constitution and Bill of Rights Today
The Constitution and its amendments are employed today by all
three branches of government. The judicial branch uses the
words and principles of the Constitution to form decisions
regarding civil and criminal trials, and lawyers cite these
decisions in their arguments. Over the years, the Constitution
has been challenged, interpreted, and amended, but never
discarded. It is the cornerstone of U.S. government and culture,
and the protections it gives U.S. citizens draw people from
other countries on a continuous basis.

3. Fundamentals of Discrimination
The efforts of many organizations serve to generate a culture
that addresses issues such as race, racism, discrimination,
stereotyping, and racial profiling. Each of these terms must be
clearly defined because they have often been confused with
each other.
Race is defined as "a category of humankind that shares certain
distinctive physical traits" (Race, 2010). Other classifications of
race also include people of similar cultures or those who share a
greater degree of similar background or interest than with
others. Ethnicity is often used interchangeably with race, but
ethnicity encompasses more shared elements such as religious
traditions and language.
Racism is defined as "a belief that race is the primary
determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial
differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race"
(Racism, 2010). Racism can be described further as feeling
intense hatred of a race different from one's own. Racist
behavior often encompasses outrage and violence among
groups, but in the workplace, it can reinforce attitudes and
behaviors that specifically discriminate against others.
Discrimination is the propensity for a person or group of people
to limit opportunities for others based on their differences. To
discriminate is defined as "to make a difference in treatment or
favor on a basis other than individual merit" (Discriminate,
2010). Discrimination is subjective and is not always an illegal
act. It is extremely important for leaders to understand the
difference between discriminating actions that simply identify
4. differences in the abilities of workers, as opposed to unlawful
discrimination that leads to unfair treatment because of a
worker's background.
The term stereotyping was first coined as a printing term to
describe the duplication of an original document, which was
used to make further copies rather than using the original.
Later, in 1922, a published work, Public Opinion, used the term
to describe stereotyping as a "picture in our heads," which was
described as the way in which people viewed the world around
them. Stereotypes are characterizations based on
generalizations, or assumptions, that people make about
members of a group. They are often incorrectly based on an
image about what people in that group are like.
Racial profiling is a term used when law enforcement uses a
person's race as a basis of suspicion to engage in enforcement
actions. Racial profiling has long been debated; it has been
argued that it is an effective tool in law enforcement to help
identify potential suspects based on characteristics that are
often correlated with race, and it also can be seen as an
infringement on civil rights when a person is suspected merely
because of his or her race.
One of the biggest challenges facing professionals in homeland
security is how to balance the nation's safety and security while
preserving individual liberties. The foundation for the
protection of civil liberties is the U.S. Constitution. It serves as
the basis for laws that govern the way in which people are
treated. Human resource leaders must have a broad
understanding of these laws and their applications in the
workforce. Although the homeland security and emergency
management fields do possess some specific challenges in the
way in which people work together, the laws stretch across the
entire American workforce.

Discriminatory Social Issues
Introduction
On July 4, 1776, the Founding Fathers of the United States of
America signed the Declaration of Independence. Although this
document clearly provided that all men are created equal, the
history of the United States has demonstrated that theories and
laws are not always sufficient to overcome prejudice. There are
many forms of discrimination that are directed toward numerous
minorities. Unfortunately, discrimination has had a very
prominent place within U.S. history.
Racism
Racism is a form of discrimination in which one racial group
dominates another; legitimates its dominance by proclaiming
itself physically, intellectually, and socially superior; and
institutes laws or practices to protect its dominance. The
enslavement of blacks in America is a prime example of this
inequality.
Classism
7. In some cultures or societies, an individual’s placement in a
social or economic class is not based on ethnicity or race but on
his or her family's status in society. In these societies, the
family members' status within their culture’s class structure is
not visible by observers whereas the issues a person of color
faces in a society, like the United States, are readily apparent to
the average passerby.
Social problems do not result from the characteristics of an
individual but rather from the social organization as a whole.
Everything in the system is related to everything else and is
interdependent. For example, as the economy of a society
transitions due to technology or political revolution, the social
structures of the society also shift and transition accordingly.
Poverty in the United States can be attributed to the basic
structure of the American social system. Poverty is not
accidental nor is it entirely deliberate. Economic and social
factors and the underlying motive of the U.S. economy are the
foundation of the recurring and foreseeable permanent social
problem of poverty.
Crime
Many theorists believe that unequal social structures, like
racism and class, have a great deal of influence on crime and
criminality. Èmile Durkheim and Robert Merton theorized that
all individuals seek the American Dream of having a home, two
cars, and a family, but because not everyone is given equal
opportunity to achieve this, some individuals seek alternative
means of reaching success—such as crime. Others theorize that
economic oppression causes crime and that if everyone were
treated fairly or equally, crime would be eliminated.
Sexism
8. Sexism is "prejudice or discrimination based on sex; especially
discrimination against women" (Sexism, 2014).
Due to a long history of patriarchal societies, women have
regularly been treated as unequal to men. One form of
discrimination is the sociological theory of the glass ceiling and
the subsequent compromise with which most women must
contend.
The corporate environment is the following:
define[s] a glass ceiling as the actual or perceived barrier or cap
beyond which few women (or other previously excluded
minorities) in public and private organizational structures are
able to move. For example, many women may have obtained the
position of corporate vice-president, but for some reason cannot
achieve the top position of chief executive officer despite their
qualifications and efforts. In this respect, the glass ceiling is
roughly comparable to a pay cap for women. (Bullard & Wright,
1993)
Social Problems and Change
Because there are many types of minorities in America and
there are prejudice beliefs and discriminatory behaviors, there
are numerous social problems including racism, classism, and
sexism. To counteract that, opinions about issues in society are
often the catalyst for the foundations of social change. Each
individual has an opinion about public issues, and those
combined opinions determine society's position on an issue.
"Social policies can be seen as collective responses to social
problems" and are sustained through several disciplines, such as
social work, psychology, political science, and economics (An
Introduction, n.d.). It also draws on the following:
9. Social policy draws on sociology to explain the social context
of welfare provision. If we are trying to improve people's
welfare, it is helpful to try to understand something about the
way that people are, and how welfare policies relate to their
situation. (An Introduction, n.d.)
Social change, then, can be determined by society's response to
given actions or identified problems. Society, however, changes
slowly.

Gender and Ethics: Feminism
Some criticisms of traditional and even contemporary ethical
theories are that many were developed by males from a male
perspective. There are beliefs that individual approaches to
morality are gender-based (McAdams, Neslund, & Neslund,
2007), which can invalidate certain approaches to ethics for part
of the population. Furthermore, the male perspective may not
fully take into account ethical considerations that are specific to
10. females and properly recognize the diversity that exists in
society. An understanding of the limitations of current ethical
thoughts, as well as the opportunities relative to these theories
and other actions, is of value as the topic of ethics is explored.
Recognition of evolving thoughts on women’s rights provides
focus for ethical concerns.
Ethical approaches can be viewed as having limitations given
the sources of theories and the potential biases that there may
be in perspectives. As noted by McAdams et al. (2007), Carol
Gilligan believes that an individual sense of ethics is primarily
based on gender. “She claims that men typically approach
morality as a function of justice, impartiality, and rights (the
ethic of justice) whereas women are more likely to build a
morality based on care, support, and responsiveness (the ethic
of care)" (McAdams et al., 2007; Driver, 2005). In addition to
different approaches to ethics, there are perceived limitations
relative to females based on professional status and what is
often referred to as the glass ceiling or limitations on
advancement, equal pay, and sexual matters.
The Types of Feminism
The classic feminists viewed that there were similar experiences
among women so differences among women were not
necessarily taken into account with efforts to achieve proper
social and professional status and recognition (Enns, Sinacore,
Ancis, & Phillips, 2004). The perspective of classic feminism
was that women were dominated by men in a patriarchal system,
the labor markets were unfair, and heterosexuality was forced.
Difference feminism was the recognition of the fact that the
female experience can vary based on race/ethnicity, sexual
orientation, and national origin or culture (Enns et al., 2004).
Radical feminism was viewed as a more militant approach to
classic feminism because they felt female oppression was
widespread and social changes were critical to address this
11. matter (Kinds of Feminism, 2008). Equity feminism builds on
other efforts with a focus on achieving true equality for women
in all aspects of society.
All of these approaches to feminism are based on a common
theme that gender affects various societal matters—at home, in
the workplace, and beyond. They also suggest the need for
reexamining ethical approaches to recognize the gender-based
differences as well as the diversity in life experiences that
impact ethical concerns. As efforts continue to achieve equality
for women throughout the world, it seems logical that some
modifications in value systems will be necessary among regions
and cultures to encompass broader perspectives.
