Lesbian history in the United States has long been mischaracterized as mere "romantic friendships" but the acceptance of lesbianism has gradually increased over time. In the late 19th century, some lesbian relationships were openly acknowledged among suffrage supporters. The 1964 Civil Rights Act prohibited gender discrimination and lesbian activists in the 1960s and 70s helped pave the way for greater acceptance of LGBT people. By the early 21st century, more gay and lesbian families felt able to openly identify themselves in the US Census and same-sex marriage was legally recognized in some states.

Homosexuality is illegal and persecuted in Jamaica. The culture and religion in Jamaica and many Caribbean islands view homosexuality as a crime. Article 79 of Jamaica's Offenses Against the Person Act punishes homosexual acts with up to two years imprisonment and hard labor. Reggae artists like Elephant Man and Sizzla promote homophobic lyrics that contribute to Jamaica's reputation as a dangerous place for LGBT people. While laws against homosexuality are not strictly enforced, the culture of homophobia allows for harassment. Changing attitudes and laws is difficult due to the influence of religion and anti-gay music in Jamaican culture.
Historic Baltimore Presentation
This document is a research paper written by Tara L. George for Dr. Michelle Scott at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. It examines forms of cultural resistance within Baltimore's African American community from 1930 to 1980, including music, theater, sports, religion, and community institutions, as responses to racial discrimination and segregation. It discusses the origins and growth of Baltimore's black population and neighborhoods like Old West Baltimore. Key figures and events discussed include Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, the Royal Theater, the Negro Baseball Leagues, and the impact of integration, suburban flight, and civil rights legislation on the community from the 1950s onward.

Slavery began in 8000 BC and expanded greatly in the southern US states in the 1700-1800s, where black slaves worked large plantations and had no rights. The Civil War from 1861-1865 was fought over the issue of slavery, with the North defeating the South. After the war, Jim Crow laws enforced racial segregation and discrimination despite the end of slavery, which is the context of Harper Lee's novel "To Kill a Mockingbird".

2020 LGBTQ+ ICONS
PRIDE is commemorated every June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in New York City, when patrons and supporters of the Stonewall Inn staged an uprising to resist the police harassment and persecution to which LGBTQ+ Americans were commonly subjected. This uprising marked the beginning of a movement to outlaw discriminatory laws and practices against LGBTQ+ Americans.
This year, I am celebrating PRIDE by sharing bits of our rich history. Every day this month, I will post a series of profiles highlighting LGBTQ+ icons who have made significant contributions to society. Take a moment to learn about these scientists, artists, athletes, activists, business and political leaders whose stories inspire me to live authentically and to continue the fight for equity and justice, every day.
Happy PRIDE 2020!
Black history
The document discusses the history of slavery in America from its origins to the Civil Rights Movement. It began with the slave trade bringing Africans to America and Brazil for farm labor due to lack of manpower. Slavery was legal and slaves had to obey their owners. The Civil War was fought from 1861-1865 over slavery, with the North abolishing it and the South wanting to maintain it. Jim Crow laws after the war legally separated and discriminated against blacks. The Civil Rights Movement from the 1950s onward sought equal treatment and an end to discrimination through protests and legal changes. Harper Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird reflected these racial issues and Atticus Finch represented fighting for justice.

This document provides an overview of issues in American gender history including the development of women's citizenship and rights defined by marriage and impacted by public policy and law. It discusses images of American women from colonial times through the 1960s, including colonial housewives, Republican mothers, Victorian wives, flappers, Rosie the Riveter, and suburban housewives. Marriage and divorce are examined, noting how women's citizenship was historically defined by marriage under coverture laws. The document focuses on divorce history and laws in New York, including several divorce cases and how the Catholic Church opposed divorce law reforms. It suggests women had little bargaining power in marriages in the 19th century but that changed in the 1920s.

1) Many dancehall and reggae songs from Jamaica and other Caribbean islands contain homophobic lyrics targeting gay men. Artists use derogatory words like "chi chi man" and "batty boy" in their songs.
2) The anti-gay sentiments in reggae music stem from old British laws that criminalized homosexuality and negative biblical passages.
3) Activist groups campaign against homophobia in reggae but government officials do little to help, allowing anti-gay views to persist. Some artists have signed agreements to reduce homophobic lyrics.

Us Agoodplace1920s
The document examines whether the USA was a good place to live in the 1920s. It analyzes life for black people, the urban-rural divide, and prohibition. For rich, young urban residents, it was the "Roaring Twenties," but life was difficult for black people facing racism, farmers in isolated rural areas, and the urban poor who did not benefit from the economic boom. Racism persisted through Jim Crow laws, the Ku Klux Klan's influence, and lynchings in the South and elsewhere.

- Harper Lee and her novel To Kill a Mockingbird, which dealt with racism in the South.
NAMBLA: Man/Boy Love in the US.
NAMBLA is an organization formed in 1978 that believes consensual relationships between men and boys should be legalized. It cites ancient Greek pederasty as precedent but some members oppose this due to its elitism. In 1997, two NAMBLA members murdered 10-year old Jeffrey Curley. His parents sued NAMBLA but the case was dropped in 2008. Critics see NAMBLA as enabling child sexual abuse and several members have been convicted of crimes against children.

The document discusses several cultural changes that occurred in the United States during the 1920s. Women took on new roles outside of the home, gaining the right to vote and entering the workforce as teachers, nurses, and social workers. Prohibition led to increased crime as gangsters illegally produced and sold alcohol. The Harlem Renaissance saw African American culture flourish through art, music, and literature. Fundamentalists were concerned by the country shifting away from traditional values towards new technology and entertainment. Radio technology advanced, with news, music, and sports broadcasts keeping people informed and entertained.

The document discusses the history and prevalence of interracial relationships in the United States. It notes that bans on interracial marriage date back to 1664, and were still legal until the 1967 Loving v. Virginia Supreme Court case. Interracial marriages have risen significantly since then, making up 1.2 million marriages in 1990 compared to 300,000 in 1970. The document also examines opposition and support for interracial dating, who is considered "the other," and discusses interfaith and cross-cultural relationships.Civil Rights Movement Pptxdanny Chris Coe
The Civil Rights Movement was a worldwide political movement for racial equality that took place in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. African Americans and other disadvantaged groups fought against racial discrimination and segregation in public facilities, government, and employment. Key events and organizations in the movement included the Brown vs. Board of Education Supreme Court decision declaring segregated schools unconstitutional, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibiting discrimination, the Montgomery Bus Boycott led by Martin Luther King Jr., and advocacy groups like the NAACP and Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee that supported nonviolent protests for equality and integration.

The document summarizes key events and organizations in the American civil rights movement that helped African Americans gain equal rights and opportunities. It discusses Freedom Rides that tested desegregation of interstate buses and faced violence. It also describes lunch counter sit-ins that spread awareness of racism and led to desegregation of restaurants. The Montgomery Bus Boycotts organized by the NAACP protested segregated bus seating and eventually won desegregation after 381 days. The NAACP and Martin Luther King Jr. also played major roles through legal challenges and nonviolent protests like the March on Washington. Overall, the document argues that while African Americans faced setbacks and loss of life, they overcame white supremacy to obtain some level

black histoy
The document discusses the history of black people in America from slavery through the civil rights movement. It describes how slavery began in 1760 BC and slaves were imported from Africa. The civil war was fought from 1861 to 1865, ending slavery. After the civil war, Jim Crow laws enforced racial segregation until the civil rights movement started challenging unfair treatment of blacks through protests and boycotts in the 1950s and 1960s. Significant people mentioned include President Lincoln, President Truman, Eisenhower, and author Harper Lee who wrote "To Kill a Mockingbird".
Women’s Suffrage
The women's suffrage movement began in 1848 at the Seneca Falls Convention, where Elizabeth Cady Stanton and others called for women's right to vote. Early success occurred in western states like Wyoming in 1869 and Utah in 1870, perhaps due to alliances with labor unions and temperance movements.
Two major suffrage organizations emerged: the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA), led by Carrie Chapman Catt, which took a more cooperative approach; and the militant National Woman's Party (NWP) that used hunger strikes to protest. The 19th Amendment, guaranteeing women the right to vote, was first introduced in Congress in 1878 but passage was accelerated by women's contributions to World War I

Big Ideas in Digital Pedagogy
Digital pedagogy is here; it’s just unevenly distributed--at least in the world of colleges and universities. What would higher education look like if we designed not only individual learning experiences but also an entire curriculum to mirror and prepare students for life and work in a globally networked world? How could the convergence of new digital scholarly tools and methodologies, new delivery mediums, and digitally networked culture transform higher education? This session will situate the development of digital pedagogy in the current discourse about higher education--including calls for quality, completion, jobs, and access--offer a vision for transformative digital pedagogy, suggest both barriers to and strategies for achieving that vision, and engage participants in a thought experiment to design an integrated curriculum articulated by digital pedagogy.

Social constructivism(sc)24v1
Social constructivism is a theory of learning that says knowledge is constructed through social interaction and collaboration. It emphasizes active learning where students work together to solve problems. According to this theory, knowledge arises through discourse, negotiation, and shared understanding between learners interacting within a community. The document then provides examples of how social constructivist principles can be implemented through tools like gaming modules, social media, and simulations to create collaborative learning environments.
The Dead Men's Path
The story describes a new headmaster, Michael Obi, who is appointed to improve a school in a Nigerian village. He renovates the school grounds but blocks an old path used by villagers. When he ignores requests to reopen the path, which connects sacred village sites, the villagers retaliate by destroying the school buildings. The headmaster's failure to respect local customs undermines his modernizing efforts.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
