The researchers conducted a study of discrimination in Topeka, Kansas in response to a request from Concerned Citizens for Topeka. They surveyed over 1,600 residents and held focus groups. Key findings include:
- 50% of respondents reported experiencing discrimination based on attributes like race, gender, sexual orientation etc.
- Minority groups reported much higher rates of discrimination than whites, with over 80% of Hispanic, African American, biracial and multiracial individuals experiencing it.
- Types of discrimination reported included verbal abuse (30%), employment discrimination (30%), and physical violence (8%).
- Qualitative data provided personal accounts of feeling victimized and experiencing discrimination in many aspects of life.

This document defines ethnography as a qualitative research strategy where a researcher studies an intact cultural group in their natural setting over an extended period of time through primarily observational and interview-based data collection, according to Creswell. It discusses that data collection in ethnography can include documentation, archival records, interviews, direct observations, participant observations, and physical artifacts. The document also notes that ethnographic data analysis can be time-consuming and require a team due to the broad coverage needed.

Religion’s impacts on the constriction of national identity, national proudness, and global identity is complex. Interestingly, the data revealed that national identity does not lessen global identity, which is positively associated with the postmaterialist value that is prevalent among the younger generations.

This document summarizes a research article that examines the cultural nature of research and argues for considering research as a situated cultural practice. It highlights two key points made in the article. First, it discusses the theoretical and methodological limitations of traditional research that focuses on cultural minority groups. Second, it outlines an idea of research as situated cultural practice, which widens the focus from certain groups to also consider the researcher's own cultural background and assumptions within their field. The document provides background on this perspective and discusses its implications for improving research to better address growing cultural diversity.
This document defines ethnographic research and outlines the key steps in conducting an ethnography. It discusses that ethnography aims to understand a culture-sharing group by closely studying their shared patterns of behavior, beliefs, and language over time. There are three main types of ethnographic designs: realist ethnography, case study, and critical ethnography. The document also covers data collection methods, analysis, writing the final report, strengths and weaknesses of ethnographic research, and ethical considerations.
This document is the introduction to a special issue of the journal Ethnologia Polona on ethnographies of protest. It discusses how ethnographic methods can contribute to the study of contentious politics and social movements. Specifically, ethnography allows researchers to study informal power structures, informal economic processes, how social structures are enacted in everyday life, and how meaning and values are constructed and contested through social interactions. The introduction also discusses how political process theory provides a useful framework for analyzing protest, with four key dimensions: political opportunity structures, mobilizing structures, protest cultures and framing, and protest repertoires.
Anthropology is a widely applicable discipline. It plays a role in every element of human society. Anthropology offers a perspective or explanation to the phenomena of human science (Eriksen, 2010). It explores the formation of culture and the influence of diverse factors on the formation of behavior. It considers people to be a product of associations within defined societies and relationships with the surroundings. The significance of relationships to social configuration is diverse and relevant to any human lifestyle issue. Sources of livelihood and religion emerge as crucial factors in the exploration of anthropology. The discipline offers insight into how moral codes are developed and the factors that influence the process of life. Human development and forging of individualism traits such as sexuality form another part of the discipline. People are viewed as products of processes influenced by environment but considered to possess some level of autonomous growth. Another dimension of the discipline is concerned with health and referred to as medical anthropology.

Background information
The study concerning sociological perspective of racism, cultural beliefs, socialization, and ethnicity cuts across different societies for many months. The main subjects of this study were the societal perspective, cultures, ethnicity and racism, and socialization. The study involved different sociologists as researchers with an objective of learning different sociology concepts. Every society is bound by its cultures which are agreed by it and applicable to all members of that society. A breach of any cultural belief is regarded unethical and depending on the given societal culture, may attract punishment. Racism is one of the elements that almost all the societies considers unethical. The essay, Racism and Research: The Case of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study” by Allan M. Brandt found in Readings for Sociology, edited by G. Massey is among the articles which are actually advocating for anti-racism in the society. This paper seeks to explore on the cultural content if this book and other sources having similar content. The objective of this paper is to explore on the cultural chapters presented in this book including sociological perspective of racism, culture and cultural beliefs, socialization and ethnicity. By the end of this paper, the reader will have become able to actualize the theoretical content provided by various sources.
Introduction
This essay seeks to evaluate the cultural concepts presented by different sources whose research or study are aligned to the society where they represent. There are various sources whose objective is to reflect the societal beliefs in a way or another using different contexts such as religion, hospitals, and political ones. Many chapters regarding societal cultures such as sociological perspective, culture, socialization, racism, and deviance are used in exploration of different beliefs by different societies. This essay also seeks to evaluate the content of various sources regarding sociology and the manner in which different societies takes their content. Also, the applicability of different concepts in the society are explored. The main objective here is to explore on the sociological concepts and how various societies apply them with the aim of improving their ethicality.
The ethicality in this research
This research was ethical in the sense that it does not contravene any ethical standard while undertaking the study. Despite of undertaking a serious ethical cause, syphilis, the researchers are conscience about not being ethically gross. All the other aspects contained in the research are in accordance with the laid standards. Social perspectives are so wide to explore. Hence, different views are collected and analyzed while comparing those perspectives w.
This document provides an overview of ethnographic research. It defines ethnography as the in-depth study of a culture or social group through techniques like observation and interviews. There are different types of ethnographic designs, including realist ethnographies which provide an objective account, case studies which focus on a specific event or activity, and critical ethnographies which aim to advocate for marginalized groups. Key characteristics of ethnographic research include studying cultural themes, a culture-sharing group, collecting data through fieldwork, analyzing shared patterns of behavior, and interpreting findings within their proper context while being reflexive of the researcher's role.

Isabel Galina Russell, 'Geopolitical diversity in Digital Humanities: how do ...UCLDH
In this talk Isabel Galina Russell will outline the main challenges involved in creating a truly global Digital Humanities community with active participation from a broad range of countries and languages.
Drawing on her experience in establishing the Red de Humanidades Digitales (RedHD), Dr Galina Russell will discuss the importance of geopolitics in Digital Humanities and the way in which the Digital Humanities are particularly equipped to address issues such multilingualism, multiculturalism, publishing models and dissemination, validation and knowledge construction, community building and collaborative projects.
Ethnography involves immersing oneself in a culture to understand the perspectives and lived experiences of its members. The researcher spends extensive time with people in their natural environment, conducting participant observation and interviews to document daily life. While providing rich cultural insights, ethnography is time-intensive and findings may not generalize. It has been influential in giving voice to marginalized groups and creating cultural understanding.
This document discusses the ethical challenges researchers face when studying students' learning lives through collaborative autoethnography. It describes two cases where researchers connecting with students led to tensions. In one case, a researcher identified with a student's experiences, which raised questions about over-interpreting the student's history based on their own. In another case, a student revealing a developmental disorder required the researcher to consider how to understand the student's learning life while addressing a sensitive disclosure. The conclusion advocates for honest, inclusive research that considers researchers' subjectivities and highlights reflexivity to produce ethical outcomes that include participants' perspectives.

A Qualitative Study Of Letters To President Kennedy From Persons With Mental ...Andrew Parish
This document discusses a study that analyzed letters sent to President John F. Kennedy regarding mental health policy during the early 1960s. The researchers used thematic analysis to identify themes in the letters. They then represented the data in three poetic forms: free verse, pantoum, and tanka. The goal was to give voice to the experiences of mental health consumers and their families in a concise yet emotionally impactful way to influence policy. The research poem is presented as a tool for qualitative social research that can preserve lived experiences while compressing dense data for easier consumption by policymakers.
Migration as an agent of Social Change in the Rural Areas: A case of Banke Di...IJRTEMJOURNAL
Recent research on the impact of labor migration on the socioeconomic development of developing
countries has provided opportunity to try and resolve some of the long-standing polemics that have pervaded the
literature on migration and development. This article focuses on findings concerning the labor, remittance, and
social impacts of emigration on countries that have participated in labor emigration. While a great deal more
research needs to be done, recent findings confirm that in some situations the sort-term impacts of labor migration
on sending countries have been considerable. In the study area (Titiheriya, Samserganja and Rajhena VDCs of
Banke district, Western Nepal total 6272 young adults left “home” to work as migrants in the Gulf and Middle
Eastern countries or in India. Random sample method has been used and selected 240 households (migrants) for
the data collection. Better jobs with handsome earnings motivates them to migrate to Arabian and Indian cities
to secure livelihoods. But at the same time migrants are not free of risks. The findings of this study have shown
largely a positive outlook of migration in terms of livelihood security. This reflects the wider themes with respect
to socio-economic determinants of access and opportunity. Regardless of whether migration is as accumulative
process or coping strongly, most migrants receive little support and live in very difficult conditions at their
destinations. Thus, a rights-based approach to guarantee the overall security of migrants is needed.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
