Race, Place, and Opportunity: The Role of Structures in (Re)Producing Inequality
Race, Place, and Opportunity: The Role of Structures in (Re)Producing InequalityKirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity
The document summarizes a speech given by John Powell on race, place, and access to opportunity. Powell discusses how structures and policies can interact to create and perpetuate racial disparities, even without racist actors. He argues that opportunity is unevenly distributed based on race due to a history of discriminatory policies across domains like housing, education, and transportation. Changing implicit biases and aligning values and structures are important for promoting equitable access to opportunities for all.Racial and Ethical Discrimination
This document discusses racial and ethnic inequality in the Philippines. It defines key terms like race, ethnicity, prejudice, discrimination, and racism. It outlines laws in the Philippines aimed at protecting indigenous peoples and prohibiting racial discrimination. It discusses how Filipino identity developed through the blending of diverse ethnic and linguistic groups over centuries. While the Philippines does not formally recognize racial discrimination, some argue it still exists in society in subtle forms. The document presents sociological perspectives on the dysfunctions caused by racism in a society and how increased interracial contact can help reduce prejudice.
Hate groups
The document discusses the history and activities of hate groups such as the Ku Klux Klan. It describes how the KKK originated in the post-Civil War era and has since gone through periods of growth and decline. The KKK hierarchy is also outlined, listing titles like Grand Dragon and Grand Cyclops. Hate groups aim to spread prejudice against other races and minorities through intimidation, violence, and propaganda. Their presence has contributed to fear and social conflict in many communities across the United States.
Immigration as "Racial" Policy
Though politicians and members of their constituencies argue immigration policy from seemingly infinite perspectives and sides, one point stands clear and definite: decisions as to who can enter the United States and who can eventually gain citizenship status generally depends of issues of “race,” for U.S. immigration systems reflect and serve as the country’s official “racial” policies.
decolonize.pptx
This document provides context on decolonization and indigenous identities from a global perspective. It defines indigenous peoples according to the UN as culturally distinct groups who find themselves engulfed by settler societies due to forces of empire and conquest, and who have ancestral roots embedded more deeply in the lands they live in than more powerful settler societies. Notable points made include that indigenous peoples number over 370 million globally, that indigenous identity involves factors like self-identification and connection to territory, and that decolonization aims to recentre indigenous life and ways of knowing by challenging colonial institutions and power relations. The document also examines survivance theory and provides examples of how indigenous artists depict survivance in media arts.
An lgbtiq history1
This document provides an overview of LGBTQ history before the modern era, noting that same-sex behavior and diverse gender expressions have likely always existed. It discusses evidence of this dating back thousands of years in various prehistoric and ancient cultures around the world, including indigenous traditions recognizing multiple genders. The document also examines references and traditions related to gender and sexual diversity in early recorded history and religious texts from various faiths.
ELEMENTS OF SOCIAL LIFE: RACE AND ETHNICITY

1. Distinguish between race, ethnicity and minority group;
2. Explain what is meant by race as a social construct;
3. Define and give examples of racism in real life and popular culture;
4. Discuss and give examples of White Privilege;
5. Define and discuss pluralism, multiculturalism, and assimilation;
6. Define and give examples of prejudice and discrimination;
7. Recognize and provide examples of racial and ethnic stereotypes;
8. Describe the various forms of ethnic conflict;

The Social Construction of "Race"
This presentation investigates how notion of “race” is socially constructed. It arose concurrently with the advent of European exploration as a justification and rationale for conquest and domination of the globe beginning in the 15th century of the Common Era. Therefore, “race” is an historical, “scientific,” and biological myth. It is an idea. Geneticists tell us that there is often more variability within a given so-called “race” than between “races,” and that there are no essential genetic markers linked specifically to “race.”

Ethniclit2012
The document defines ethnic literature as imaginative writing where the protagonists or speakers are conscious of belonging to an ethnic group sharing a common racial, national, religious, linguistic or cultural heritage. It discusses how ethnic groups are classified and provides examples. Key characteristics of ethnic literature mentioned are themes of prejudice, generational conflicts, and feeling caught between two worlds. The document also addresses who typically writes ethnic literature and generic characteristics like hybridization of styles.
racialized boundaries, race, nation and the anti-racist struggle
This document discusses racism and racialization. It defines racism as a social construct with no biological basis, but rather one that is constructed through historical events and systems like colonialism to reinforce negative stereotypes. Racism operates at the individual, institutional, and structural levels of society. Ethnicity is also a social construction used to classify people based on culture and overlaps with concepts of race. Nationalism, ethnicity, and race are historically formed through conquest, colonization, and immigration. An analysis of racism must consider how it intersects with gender and class divisions in limiting access to resources and opportunities.
Pakistani Lit ....Lecture 2
Edward Said was a Palestinian-American literary theorist who is known for his influential book Orientalism. In Orientalism, Said analyzes how Western scholarship helped contribute to inaccurate cultural representations of the Eastern world as exotic and inferior. He argues that Orientalism constructed an ideological view of the East that perpetuated Eurocentric prejudices. Said's work was influential in the development of postcolonial theory and his analysis of Orientalism has remained an important text within this field of study.

Anth1 Ethnicity B
The document discusses diversity and perceptions of race in several cultures. It notes that in Japan, the dominant racial group sees themselves as pure-blooded Japanese and discriminates against minority groups like the Burakumin. In Brazil, race is seen as more fluid, with over 500 racial labels and the ability for one's classification to change. The document also examines ethnic groups and national identities in Nepal, the concept of diasporas and nations as imagined communities, and roots of ethnic conflict including prejudice, discrimination, and colonialism.
Decolonizing Cataloging and Classification
Presented for Peer Council 2018 by Kalani Adolpho, Diversity Resident Librarian, UW-Madison College Library
Libraries and archives are colonial impositions in many parts of the world, including lands that are now part of the United States Empire. As colonial impositions, libraries are complicit in the perpetuation of colonialism and Western hegemony through classification systems and controlled vocabularies. Through Library of Congress Subject Headings, Indigenous, queer, and gender non-conforming people are historicized, homogenized, and misnamed, and violence perpetuated against us is erased and/or referenced euphemistically.
This session will define, name impact, and provide examples of colonialism in cataloguing and classification, as well as share information on alternative headings and organization systems developed by Indigenous peoples and nations. Additionally, there will be ample time for questions and discussion after the presentation.
Comm2633 week3 2017_sem1
This document discusses how ideology and popular culture shape understandings of race. It defines key concepts like race, ethnicity, and ideology. Ideology works through popular culture to normalize certain views and make them seem natural. Edward Said's work on Orientalism examined how the West constructs understandings of the Middle East through distorted lenses that serve Western interests in maintaining power and control. Popular culture plays a role in disseminating ideological fictions that create distinctions between racial or ethnic groups.
Ethnocentrism
This document discusses ethnocentrism and cultural relativism. It defines ethnocentrism as judging other cultures based solely on one's own cultural values and standards. Cultural relativism is presented as an alternative approach where cultures are understood and judged based on their own cultural contexts and values rather than those of another culture. The document argues that a culturally relativist approach is needed in today's multicultural world to foster respect, tolerance, and cultural sensitivity between groups.
caste and coversion2
This document discusses the portrayal of caste and Hinduism in dominant discourses. It argues that caste is portrayed as intrinsic to and worse than slavery by Christian fundamentalist, evangelical, and missionary lobbies seeking to convert Hindus. It claims these groups use caste as an issue to criticize Hindus while hiding intense missionary fervor under the guise of humanitarianism. The document also examines social stratification that existed in other ancient societies and religions to argue caste is not unique to Hinduism.
Culture2 Pps
Culture is defined as the deep experiences, values, and artifacts that are shared and communicated within a group. A culture consists of learned behaviors, norms, and objects that comprise a group's total way of life. There are also subcultures within larger cultures that share some but not all cultural meanings. Cultural beliefs, attitudes, and values are representations of the outside world that indicate behavioral intentions and distinguish what is right from wrong within a culture. Cultures can be either collectivistic, valuing group goals over individual goals, or individualistic, prioritizing personal goals. Communication also differs between high-context cultures where context is important and low-context cultures where messages must be clear.

Unit 4 vocab 7
The document defines imperialism as extending the power and dominion of a nation through direct territorial acquisitions or indirect political and economic control over other areas. It also defines annexation as attaching or appending one thing, especially one that is larger or more significant, to another. Social Darwinism justified imperialism by saying that stronger countries could take what they wanted based on survival of the fittest, while the "White Man's Burden" portrayed Europeans as having a duty to civilize other "inferior" races. The Scramble for Africa in the late 1800s led European powers to colonize most of the continent at the Berlin Conference for resources and power, with the exceptions of Ethiopia and Liberia remaining independent.
Imperialism vocabulary
The document discusses various aspects of imperialism such as colonialism, annexation, and the Scramble for Africa that occurred between 1881-1914. It also examines theories used to justify imperialism including Social Darwinism and the "White Man's Burden". Racism and missionary work are presented as having potential paternalistic and racist elements when imposed upon subjugated peoples. Nationalism is defined as patriotic feeling, principles, or efforts that colonized peoples often embraced to resist colonial rule.
Amelia, Daisy, Alice, Post Colonial
Postcolonial theory analyzes the political and cultural impacts of colonialism. It examines topics like identity, power dynamics, and representation in formerly colonized works and societies. In The Tempest, Shakespeare depicts colonial relationships through Prospero's domination of the island's natives, Caliban and Ariel. Prospero establishes himself as a colonizer, asserting power and defining the islanders' inferior identities to justify his control over the island. Postcolonial readings critique the racism and exploitation inherent in colonial systems of power depicted in the play.
Postcolonialism
The document discusses several key aspects and impacts of colonialism, including the suppression, exploitation, oppression, and humiliation experienced by indigenous peoples as well as slavery and resistance. It also examines postcolonial theory and some of the main thematic concerns, such as power relations, cultural relativism, gender and racial identities, and the struggle for independence from colonial rule. Additionally, it explores the process of othering cultures and creating binary oppositions to Western ideals through a Manichean approach.
Race and Ethnicity
Race and ethnicity refer to different things - race historically grouped people by physical characteristics while ethnicity refers to shared social and cultural identities and sense of belonging. While race was formulated in Europe to categorize groups, it is now recognized as a social construct without biological validity since no traits are exclusive to racial groups. Ethnicity, nationality, and concepts of race can vary cross-culturally and change over time.
Raceandeth 140908202758-phpapp01
Race has historically been used to group people by physical characteristics, but it originated as a concept in 17th-18th century Europe to justify racist beliefs. There is no scientific basis for race; people of the same race can be more genetically different than people of different races. Race is a social construct used to classify people based on cultural ideas rather than biology. Ethnicity refers to shared cultural characteristics rather than physical traits, and nationality describes one's citizenship within a nation-state.
Race lesson
Africana Studies examines concepts of race and racism. It defines key terms like race, ethnicity, and racism. It explores the social construction of racial categories and discusses models of racial identity development. It notes that while physical traits may differ between groups, race is primarily a social rather than biological concept, and the experience of racism can vary significantly for those within and outside the socially dominant racial groups.
Caste syste.ppt
This document discusses theories of deviance and social control. It begins by defining deviance as behavior that violates group or societal norms and expectations. It then discusses types of deviance, including formal (illegal acts) and informal (non-conforming behaviors). The document also defines social control as techniques used to prevent deviant behavior. It outlines levels of social control including conformity, obedience, and techniques such as sanctions. The remainder summarizes several theories of deviance, including biological perspectives, structural functionalism, strain theory, and labeling theory. In closing, it notes deviance strengthens social bonds by defining moral boundaries in society.
Depression
This document discusses depression, including its signs and symptoms, risk factors, types, and recovery process. It notes that depression is a common problem that causes feelings of helplessness, loss of interest, changes in appetite and sleep, and more. Severe depression can be life-threatening due to suicidal thoughts. The document outlines warning signs of suicide for those close to depressed individuals to watch out for. It also explores causes of depression like loneliness, life stressors, and health issues. Finally, it recommends seeking help from others and professionals as part of the depression recovery process.
Self Regulation
Self-regulation theory proposes that people expend effort to control their thoughts, words, and actions in order to behave in a way that aligns with their goals and values. Effective self-regulation requires skills like impulse control, emotional awareness, and the ability to delay gratification. When self-regulation fails, it can lead to problems like outbursts of anger or addiction to unhealthy behaviors. Developing self-awareness and the ability to observe one's own reactions are important skills for maintaining self-control and making thoughtful choices.

Resilience
The document discusses resilience and the process of restoring balance after disruption. There are four possible outcomes of this process: resilient reintegration where disruption leads to stronger protective factors; homeostatic reintegration where individuals "just get over it" with no real change; reintegration with loss where individuals regain balance but with reduced protective factors; and dysfunctional reintegration where individuals remain imbalanced. Resilience is defined as adapting well in the face of adversity through factors like protective factors, problem-solving skills, and maintaining a hopeful outlook. The document provides tips for building resilience such as making connections, maintaining perspective, and learning from past experiences.
Anxiety

It discusses anger as a primary and physiological emotion that can have both constructive and destructive impacts depending on how it is handled. The document also provides information on the physiology of anger, anger warning signs, motivational effects of anger, anger management techniques, conflict resolution methods, and questions for managing anger.
Suicide Season
1) Suicide rates increase in the spring, likely due to seasonal affective disorder lifting and allowing for increased motivation and planning while underlying depression remains.
2) Inflammation from allergies may play a role through cytokines increasing anxiety and impulsivity by disrupting neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and glutamate in brain regions involved in motivation and emotion regulation.
3) Depression is a major risk factor for suicide due to feelings of hopelessness, and warning signs someone may be suicidal include talking about death, giving away possessions, and sudden shifts in mood.
Self-Compassion
Self-compassion involves being kind and understanding towards oneself, recognizing one's shared human experiences and imperfections, and mindfulness. It consists of three main elements - self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness. Research has shown that self-compassion is linked to greater psychological well-being and resilience, as well as increased empathy, altruism, life satisfaction, and emotional intelligence. An 8-week Mindful Self-Compassion program teaches techniques such as mindfulness meditation, compassionate body scanning, and transforming relationships to cultivate self-compassion.

Emotional intelligence (EI) refers to the ability to recognize one's own emotions and understand how those emotions affect relationships with others. It involves self-awareness of one's emotions, self-regulation to control emotions and impulses, empathy to understand others' perspectives, and social skills to build relationships. Characteristics of high EI include self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. The document provides tips to improve EI such as observing one's reactions to others, self-evaluation, examining reactions to stress, and considering how one's actions affect others.
Communication
This document discusses different communication styles: passive, assertive, and aggressive. It defines assertiveness as expressing one's feelings, thoughts, and opinions without violating others' rights. The document provides examples of assertiveness techniques like using "I statements", basic assertion, empathetic assertion, consequence assertion, discrepancy assertion, and negative feelings assertion. It also covers the "broken record" technique of preparing what to say and repeating it calmly and consistently. Overall, the document offers guidance on communicating assertively in various situations.
The Drama Triangle
The document summarizes the "Drama Triangle" concept coined by psychologist Stephen Karpman in the 1960s. The Drama Triangle describes toxic relationship dynamics between three roles: Victim, Persecutor, and Rescuer. It also introduces the "Empowerment Dynamic" as an alternative with the roles of Creator, Challenger, and Coach. These roles focus on empowerment, growth, and desired outcomes rather than problems. The document provides details on each role in the two models and references stoicism as a philosophy for controlling one's reactions rather than being controlled by outside events.
Addiction
Addiction is characterized as a chronic disease that dysfunctions the brain's reward system. It is caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Symptoms include an inability to abstain from rewarding behaviors, impaired control, craving, and relationship and emotional problems. Without treatment, addiction progresses and can lead to disability or death due to relapses triggered by substance cues, stress, or environmental factors. Overcoming addiction requires accepting feelings, developing alternative rewards, avoiding triggers, and gaining social support.
Neuroplasticity
The document discusses the difference between the brain and mind. The brain coordinates movements, thoughts and feelings, while the mind refers to a person's understanding and thought processes.
It also discusses the concept of negativity bias, where the brain is wired to pay more attention to negative experiences due to the fight or flight response activating more intensely for negative events. Therapies aim to make the brain more responsive to positive experiences.
Additionally, it discusses neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to change its structure and function through experiences and directed thoughts, indicating the adult brain can grow new neurons well into adulthood.
Existentialism
The document discusses existentialism and existential psychotherapy. It provides an overview of key concepts in existentialism including phenomenology, existential philosophers, basic concepts, key themes, and how existential therapy focuses on increasing self-awareness and helping clients find meaning and responsibility in life. The goal of existential therapy is to help clients move towards authenticity by confronting reality without denial or distortion.
Catholic Priest Sexual Abuse
The document analyzes factors that may contribute to sexual abuse in the Catholic Church. It presents data on time periods of abuse, psychological disorders of abusers, developmental issues, and situational factors. The null hypothesis is accepted that no single cause can be identified and most abusers did not exhibit characteristics that could have identified them, so the church had no way to prevent the abuse. The conclusion is that the only way to stop abuse is to educate and empower potential victims.
Marijuana 101
This document provides an overview of the history of marijuana laws and policy in the United States from the 1600s to present day. It discusses early colonial laws allowing hemp production, the "Reefer Madness" propaganda campaign in the 1930s, the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937 that effectively criminalized the plant, and increasing restrictions such as the Hemp Control Act of 1948. The document also outlines medical research on marijuana from the 1940s to 1970s, the development of state medical marijuana laws, and the high economic costs of prohibiting the drug.
WWII Propaganda
Pearl Harbor was attacked by 353 Japanese aircraft in two waves on December 7, 1941, killing 2,402 Americans and wounding 1,282. During WWII, approximately 400,000 US women served in the armed forces and more than 543 lost their lives. President Roosevelt required all Japanese Americans living on the West Coast to be imprisoned in internment camps. More than 85 million Americans purchased war bonds totaling $185.7 billion to finance the war.
Schizophrenia
Anna is a 21-year-old woman who was found playing "tag" with cars on the highway in a psychotic and dangerous manner. She appears malnourished and hears voices telling her to laugh. Her mother admits neglecting Anna's mental health needs from a young age. Anna displays symptoms of schizophrenia including hallucinations, disorganized behavior, and negative symptoms. She is assessed and a diagnosis of undifferentiated schizophrenia is considered.
Humanist and Existential Psychology
Humanistic, Existential, and Positive Aspects of Personality focuses on the meaning of human existence. Existentialism argues that people cannot be defined by fixed laws and emphasizes subjective experience and personal responsibility. Key figures like Rogers, Maslow, and Frankl viewed people as inherently driven towards growth, self-actualization, and finding purpose and meaning. Positive psychology later emerged to scientifically study subjective well-being, happiness, and human flourishing.
