First: Watch this video on " Langston Hughes and the Harlem Renaissance " https://youtu.be/ir0URpI9nKQ Second: Respond to the prompts below. Explain in your own words the key characteristics of the Harlem Renaissance and Langston Hughes' place in it. The narrator argues, “If circumstances don’t change there might be dangerous consequences...Withholding true equality has real risks and real costs to everyone in a social order.” Can you think of a current poet or musician who is spreading a message of equality like Hughes did? Give an example of a current poet or musician whose art is a response to racial, gender, or social inequalities that we still experience today. Make sure to tell us who the poet or musician is, what his/her message is, and then provide an example of one of his/her poems or songs. .

Consider the following quote by the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein, who believed that thought without language was impossible: “The limits of my language are the limits of my life.” For more information on Wittgenstein and his analysis on the importance of language, watch the video Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889 – 1951) The Limits of Language . Please respond to the following: Examine whether it is possible to think without using language. If you believe it is possible, describe the primary ways in which a person might enact so-called languageless thinking. If you believe it is not possible, describe what you foresee as major problems with "languageless" thinking. .

Consider the discussion in "Texas's Shift from Blue to Red Informs 2014 Races." The "red-blue" debate in Texas is essentially an issue of party realignment. The transformation of Texas from a one-party Democratic state to that of essentially a one-party Republican state occurred over several years in which there was a convergence of many different factors, including economics,demographics, trends in national politics, and the role of key political actors. For those predicting the possibility of Texas becoming a "blue" state with the resurgence of the Democratic Party, what lessons might be drawn from the Republican realignment that produced the party's current domination of the state government and many local governments throughout Texas? .

Consider Lydia’s and John’s cognitive and physical limitations as well as their social support. If you were presenting this case to a team of other human services providers, what developmental theories, concepts, and principles help explain this case? What other information might you need to fully evaluate the situation in which Lydia and John live? If you were the protective service worker, what are the options for this couple? Identify several feasible plans with explanation and support from a source of information. Include the risks and benefits of each option. Then, identify what your final recommendation would be and why. Case Study Lydia and John were a couple in their nineties who lived in their own home and had been married over sixty years. Both were confused and forgetful. They had two sons who were in their seventies and lived in nearby towns. One son was estranged from them. The other was somewhat involved in their lives, but he had a mentally ill wife and health problems of his own to deal with. The couple first came to the attention of a protective service worker when John was hospitalized after a fall. When left on her own, Lydia’s confusion became more pronounced. A referral was made for home care services, but, when a worker went out to assess the couple, their son was present and refused services. Based on concerns of benign neglect, a protective services report was issued. A caseworker investigated and substantiated the report, citing the son’s interference with services and the couple’s own inability to provide adequate care for each other. The protective services worker found both John and Lydia to be very forgetful and somewhat confused, though Lydia was more impaired. Due to their increased physical frailty, they had been using only the first floor of their home. Since the bedrooms and bathroom were upstairs, the living arrangement presented several problems for the couple. Lydia had a regular bed, but John was sleeping on a cot. The low height of the cot caused him to lose his balance easily, resulting in several falls. Since there was no toilet downstairs, they were using a bucket in the kitchen and emptying it outside. They were unable to maintain their home and conditions became unsanitary. The son tried to help, but he had his own limitations. The elderly couple was well able to afford assistance, but they did not want to spend the money. Furthermore, even though the son who helped with paying the bills was not taking advantage of his parents financially, he was obviously concerned with “preserving his inheritance.” Meanwhile, John and Lydia were extremely conservative in terms of how they chose to spend their money; they insisted they could not afford help. .

Did he transform into a white man? Or did he transform into something else? Did he perhaps transform into something other than human? Think critically before responding, and provide evidence from the text to support your claim, and try to answer the questions: What was Furo prior to his transformation? What did he become after his transformation? .

Consent, Confidentiality, and Privileged Communication can be tricky concepts in the profession of counseling particularly when working with minors. FIRST, define each term. SECOND, review the two vignettes below address points A and B below. I expect you all to have healthy debate around these issues. You may need to review laws in the state where you hope to practice as the "age of consent" may vary by state based on the chronological age of the child and/or the reason why they are seeking treatment. 1. Susie (16-years-old) and Susie’s parents came in to discuss treatment with LMFT Mark. LMFT Mark reviewed his standard informed consent with both Susie and her parents, including a section on confidentiality which briefly mentioned reasons for a breach of confidentiality including “harm to self.” After the third session, Susie admitted to LMFT Mark that she was sexually active with a few different people in her high school, and that she smoked marijuana on weekends. LMFT Mark determined that this did not rise to the level of “harm to self” worthy of a breach of confidentiality but instead he would work with her clinically. After the fifth session, she told LMFT Mark that she had been “cutting” but never near an artery. LMFT Mark again determined not to breach confidentiality. After the seventh session, Susie told LMFT Mark that she had been drinking heavily, and had started blacking out at parties, waking up in strange beds (clearly having had sexual intercourse). LMFT Mark decided to tell Susie’s parents about the drinking and blackouts. 2. LMFT Mable has been seeing Davey (5-years-old) for almost a year. Throughout the treatment, Davey has talked about his relationship with his parents and how their divorce makes him sad. Davey has indicated that while he loves his Mom, he likes spending time with his Dad more because his Dad doesn’t yell at him as much and Mom seems to always “be out.” Recently, Mom has called LMFT Mable and asked for a copy of Davey’s file so she can “use it in the custody battle.” LMFT Mable is not sure whether she is legally mandated to turn over the file to Mom. Also, she recently received a subpoena from Dad’s attorney for Davey’s file. LMFT Mable is not sure if she can legally or clinically should turn over the files. A. Discuss whether or not, in your opinion, the therapist’s conduct is appropriate in the context of any and all laws, regulations, and ethical standards that may apply. B. Explore any other options that are available to the therapist and any potential consequences of those options. Indicate what you believe to be the best course of action, in light of the applicable laws, regulations, and ethical standards. .

Connecting Knowledge with Research in Case Studies Tolulope Moses 6200 WEEK 8 Assignment Connecting Knowledge with Research in Case Studies Introduction One of the core elements of social work is the comprehensive assessment of a situation in a case which aids in developing effective interventions. In this regard, the understanding and application of knowledge are imperative in making the most profound decisions. In cases involving adolescents, among the most important knowledge is that on human behavior and social environment which is described as understanding how people relate to their environment including social interactions and relationships. According to Zastrow and Kirst-Ashman (2016), it is important to set realistic goals with the client consistent with the needs and requirements while applying obtained knowledge to implement the developed interventions. This paper entails a case study on Eboni Logan, proposed goals, and relating it with a peer-reviewed article. Eboni Logan Case The case used in this project is that of Eboni Logan, a 16-year-old biracial African American/Caucasian female who is two months pregnant. Eboni lives with her mother Darlene, and grandmother, May. She has been working at a fast food restaurant for 10 hours per week. Eboni has a boyfriend named Darian with whom they have been engaging in sexual activities without contraceptives. Both Eboni and Darian have no criminal records nor do they manifest alcohol or drug abuse although they take these elements occasionally. While Eboni’s mother works as an administrative assistant at a local manufacturing company, her father is a mechanic who supports Ebony through social and financial wellbeing. Eboni has recently learned she is pregnant, an aspect that introduces a number of problems for her and the social environment. Case Problems The case problems involve Eboni’s pregnancy. First, all her social environment including the grandmother and mother are upset with the situation. Her mother in particular hurled insults while calling her a slut. Her father was also upset although he agreed to provide her with a place to stay. The first challenge in this regard entails the broken relationship with her social environment and especially her mother. The second challenge is that Darian, who is the child’s father, states that he is not ready to support the baby and although he has not mentioned it explicitly, he prefers an abortion which Eboni does not want. The issue in this regard is how Eboni will nature her pregnancy and the baby yet she is still an adolescent and at school which might be forced to terminate for the moment. In addition, it may be worrying about how she will live with her father and stepmother considering the situation. Goals The goals, in this case, are informed by the above-identified problems and Eboni as the main client in the situation. The first goal would entail re-establishing the relationship with her social environme.

Congress and the Presidency: An Unequal Relationship? "The tyranny of the legislature is really the danger most to be feared, and will continue to be so for many years to come. The tyranny of the executive power will come in its turn, but at a more distant period." - Thomas Jefferson In 1783 American colonists, defying incredible odds, had just beaten the United Kingdom, western hemisphere's preeminent power, in the American War for Independence . (NPS.gov, n.d.) Now, these thirteen colonies, saddled with a new governmental charter, the onerous Articles of Confederation , sought to chart their own, independent path. (Gilderlehrman, n.d.) As a result, in 1787 disgruntled colonists sent delegates to Philadelphia in order to revise the dysfunctional Articles of Confederation. Yet, in a radical departure, most delegates decided not to amend the current constitution, but instead to craft a new Constitution. (OConnor & Sabato, 2019) During the four month Constitutional Convention the delegates readily agreed upon James Madison’s basic premise of a new, United States government delineated along three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. That said, most delegates envisioned a strong legislative body and a weak executive office. (Maier, 2011) Today, many historians and political scientists argue that the institution of the presidency has dramatically increased in power since the end of WWII at the expense of Congress. This notion of a modern, expansive presidential power, stands in steadied contrast to Congress’ Constitutional ability to “check” the executive branch. The U.S Congress has three, broad powers that, as per the founding fathers, act as a “check” against the executive branch: Lawmaking Power. Only Congress can propose and pass legislation. An example of Congress’s lawmaking function is the Declaration of War with Japan of 1941 . More information about Congress’s ability to declare war can be found on the official House of Representatives’ website . Budgetary Power. Only Congress has the authority to pass and fund the federal budget. Whereas the president request monies for the federal bureaucracies, Congress actually controls the purse strings. An example of Congress’s budgetary function is the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 . More information about the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 can be found on the official House of Representatives’ website . Oversight Power. As per Whitehouse.gov, “Oversight of the executive branch is an important Congressional check on the President’s power and a balance against his discretion in implementing laws and making regulations. A major way that Congress conducts oversight is through hearings. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs are both devoted to overseeing and reforming government operations, and each committee conducts oversight in its policy area.” (Whitehouse, .
