Ethnicity
This document discusses several key ideas around British culture and the representation of ethnicity:
- It defines the differences between race, ethnicity, and nationality. Ethnicity encompasses cultural identity through traditions, customs, dress, food, religion and faith.
- Stereotypes often contain elements of truth but can lead to overgeneralizations about entire groups. Positive representations aim to change perceptions.
- Common stereotypes in media include portraying ethnic groups as exotic, dangerous, pitied, or humorous. More recently, groups are sometimes sexualized.
- TV dramas may center storylines of ethnic characters around their culture in ways that can perpetuate negative stereotypes, rather than showing storylines unrelated to ethnicity

The document provides background information for a visit from a Holocaust survivor named Lily. It discusses preparing students by learning about the Holocaust and the importance of survivor testimony. Lily's story, called "The Golden Pendant", describes how she received and hid a gold pendant as a young girl in Hungary during the 1930s to escape persecution during the Holocaust. Students are asked to consider the importance of survivors sharing their stories to prevent such events from happening again.
Museum of Tolerance Essay
The student visited the Holocaust Museum and found it to be a touching experience that provided new insights despite prior knowledge of the Holocaust. The tour guide effectively explained exhibits, which included an impactful display on Anne Frank. The Anne Frank exhibit used lighting and multimedia to convey Anne's experiences and hope while in hiding. The Museum aims to educate people on the Holocaust to prevent future genocides from occurring through indifference.

It also identifies the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand as the immediate cause that triggered the war. The document then previews different question types that may appear on a test about World War 1, such as matching, short answer, short essay, analysis of media, and extra credit questions. It signals that a test on these topics will take place next time.
Preserving innocence or coddling ignorance?
The document discusses the debate around preserving children's innocence versus exposing them to truthful information. It notes that some parents try to shield children from topics like gay rights, suicide, or climate change by preventing certain books or films. However, the document argues that preserving innocence through ignorance does a disservice to children and restricts their access to knowledge and critical thinking. It contends children will learn about these issues eventually, so parents should take responsibility to educate them in age-appropriate ways. Overall, the document makes the case that innocence is not the same as ignorance, and that ignorance should not be used as a weapon or excuse to limit children's exposure to important truths and information.

Walker, Chapter 13
Police corruption involves criminal or improper behavior by police officers for personal gain. It undermines the criminal justice system and public trust in the police. There are different types of corruption like accepting gratuities, taking bribes, theft, and protecting illegal activities. Corruption can range from a few "rotten apples" to being widespread and organized in a police department. Theories for why it occurs include individual officer explanations, neighborhood factors, and police subculture and organization issues. Controlling corruption requires internal police mechanisms like effective leadership and supervision as well as external oversight like investigations and public scrutiny.
Police misconduct
Police misconduct and brutality can take several forms including assault, excessive force, and theft. Assault by police officers involves any unlawful threat or attempt to physically harm another. Excessive force refers to any non-justified use of force by an officer when making an arrest or interacting with civilians. Theft by police involves officers stealing money or property from civilians during arrests or interactions.
Walker, Chapter 11
Police have significant discretion in carrying out their duties. This discretion involves critical decisions such as making arrests, referring juveniles to court, and using deadly force. While discretion allows police to consider unique aspects of each situation, it can also lead to abuse and inconsistency if not properly controlled. Written policies and oversight seek to structure discretion to promote consistent and fair outcomes, improve public policy, and enhance professionalism in law enforcement. However, rules cannot cover all situations and may sometimes have unintended negative effects if not implemented carefully.
Walker, Chapter 1
The purpose of this chapter is to provide background on policing and discuss the goals and realities of police work. It defines law enforcement agencies and police officers, and notes that police have complex roles that involve enforcing laws, investigating crimes, maintaining order, and providing services to citizens. While often portrayed as crime fighters, police work really involves discretion, ambiguity, and balancing many standards like protecting rights and ensuring safety. The chapter introduces alternatives like problem-oriented, community, and zero-tolerance policing that will be explored in later sections.
Police bruitality
The National Police Misconduct Reporting Project (NPMRP) tracked 4,861 reports of police misconduct in 2010 involving 6,613 officers and 6,826 alleged victims. This included 247 fatalities and $346.5 million in civil judgments. The NPMRP aggregates reports of police misconduct on a Twitter feed and in a database, following criteria like the incident involving an on or off-duty officer, and reports of allegations, investigations, litigation, etc. The author advocates using social media and technology to monitor and spread awareness of police brutality cases around the world.
Police Brutality
Police brutality refers to excessive or unnecessary use of force by police against civilians. Statistics show it is an ongoing problem in the United States that undermines public trust in law enforcement. Potential causes include officers feeling a sense of authority over citizens and a code of silence that prevents misconduct from being reported, while solutions focus on improved training, accountability, and community oversight of police activities.
620 Police Brutality Presentation
This document discusses the issue of police brutality against African Americans in the United States. It provides statistics showing that African Americans, especially boys and men ages 15-19, are much more likely to be killed by police than whites. Several recent cases are described where unarmed African or black men were killed by police and the officers were not indicted, including Eric Garner, John Crawford III, Michael Brown, Kajieme Powell, Tamir Rice, and Milton Hall. Commentators argue that there are two different justice systems for black Americans versus others and that policing has become a major civil rights issue. It is suggested that communities need more than just police and that jobs, housing and youth programs are also needed.

The drone would be used for surveillance, cargo delivery, scientific research, emergency response, and recreational activities. It aims to have a small, quiet design that can carry adjustable cameras, storage, and transmit footage in real-time. While similar drones exist, past models have issues with size, stability, noise, and unreliable power. This project hopes to address those limitations with a versatile yet cost-effective design. Further research is recommended to expand its range and capabilities in various weather conditions.

Racism is defined as the belief that inherent differences among human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior. It has influenced wars, slavery, and legal codes throughout human history. Notorious examples include the enslavement of Africans in the New World and the racist belief that Black Africans were less human than white Europeans. Quotes on racism emphasize the importance of unconditional love and equality regardless of race or color. The timeline discusses various wars, immigration patterns, and civil rights events. Multiracial individuals now make up a growing portion of the US population.

The document provides context and analysis of the short story "My House is on Fire" set during Chile's coup d'état of 1973. It discusses the historical background of Salvador Allende's presidency and overthrow by Augusto Pinochet. The cultural context includes repression of artists under Pinochet. The story is narrated from an unclear perspective that shifts between characters, creating a mood of fear and mistrust. The plot involves a family hiding a young girl and pretending it is a game to avoid detection, until guards arrive at their door. A theme of the story is the constant fear of one's surroundings during a repressive regime.
Three Butch’s Story Who Am I Developing racial identity can be co
Three Butch’s Story Who Am I? Developing racial identity can be complicated for individuals because they must balance self-perceptions, stereotypes and biases, and socialization processes. Racial identity development is more difficult for people with multiple or mixed racial backgrounds. Biracial individuals are the offspring of individuals with differing racial heritage. Interracial is the term given to describe the marital process, and multiracial, a newer term, describes individuals from two or more heritages (Kerwin & Ponterotto, 1995). The idea of the existence of mixed racial heritage has been troublesome. The prevailing notion was—and still is today—that individuals from mixed racial heritages, particularly Whites and Blacks, would have difficulty functioning. It was also believed that mixing the races would “dilute” Whiteness, leading to an inferior race or group of people. In the early 1800s, interracial marriages began to be outlawed, and it was not until 1967 that the U.S. Supreme Court ruled these laws as unconstitutional (Kerwin & Ponterotto, 1995). Complicating the identity process were laws that defined the notion of race, which varied from state to state, including the one-drop rule for individuals with African heritage, which stated that a person with any African ancestry was categorized as African or African American (Rockquemore & Laszloffy, 2003). The consequences of the negative reactions to racial mixing included the development of a social status classification system, leading to intragroup differences and judgmental attitudes. Biracial individuals were often forced to choose a racial group, but some biracial people attempted to “pass” and be accepted as Whites. The tragic mulatto syndrome, personified in the movie Imitation of Life, was a by-product of the attitudes toward biracial individuals; it includes the dilemma of having to choose a racial identity, often as a result of denying a part of one’s racial heritage (Kerwin & Ponterotto, 1995). It should be noted that this process included not only the denial of part of one’s own heritage, but also a denial of family members or associates. The 2010 U.S. Census data show that 9 million individuals (2.9% of total population) reported two or more races in their background, an increase of 6.8 million reported in 2000 (Jones & Bullock, 2012). Although historically more attention has been given to White–Black intermarriages, the 2010 census categorized 57 groupings for multiracial individuals. The multiracial category is expanding, and clinicians may be confronted with more biracial and multiracial clients. It is more acceptable today to claim multiracial heritage; however, individuals still need to engage in the complex task of identity development. Butch’s story describes this complex process that occurs with people of mixed racial heritage. The reader should pay close attention to the negotiation process that must occur with each component of Butch’s racial background, in ...

Growing Up In The 1950s
The document describes life for children growing up in the 1950s in the United States. During this time, the Cold War between the US and USSR was ongoing and families held traditional values with children expected to obey their parents. Education was emphasized but remained segregated. Popular activities for children included joining clubs like Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts as well as playing with toys and games or participating in outdoor activities. Television was a new technology but often broadcast live so mishaps could occur. Families spent time together in finished basements, which typically included a TV, toys, and games like ping pong or pool.
