The summary discusses the novel To Kill a Mockingbird and explains that in the novel, Atticus Finch tells his children that it is wrong to kill mockingbirds because they are innocent and simply create music for others to enjoy. The summary states that several characters in the story represent metaphorical mockingbirds in that they are innocent individuals who are persecuted based on rumors and false impressions. It concludes by saying that students will research and present on a group of people who have been historically persecuted.

Ethnography of an Indigenous Culture
This activity is a good way to demonstrate what you have learned in this course. Be sure to choose an indigenous culture that you find interesting. Read all directions and ask questions if you have them.
To successfully complete this activity, you will need to consult:
· your textbook
· Web sites -- no encyclopedia!
· Contact your instructor at least three weeks before this assignment to make sure you have chosen an indigenous group. Numerous students have made mistakes in understanding what is meant by indigenous. Please review your readings. It is also best to NOT choose a group in the United States (they have assimilated to U.S. Culture and it can be difficult to write paper).
You will be constructing an ethnography of an indigenous culture of your choice. To help you choose an indigenous culture, I would recommend starting at these websites:
Wikipedia Indigenous Peoples
Center for World Indigenous Studies
Indigenous Node of the World Wide Web Virtual Library
I must approve your choice by the fourth week of the semester. This is not an activity you will want to procrastinate on.
This acivity is a capstone experience for you. It is critical that you demonstrate you can use as many concepts from our course as possible. You are to apply as many ideas you have learned from the textbook, videos, and websites as possible. Underline each concept you use from the text! While firsthand knowledge of a culture is valuable, you must use academic resources for this activity.
When you submit your activity, type out the question and then your response. You will not need to organize your work into the traditional style for a paper. It is your job to "flesh out" the indigenous culture you have chosen. By the time you have finished, someone who knows nothing about your indigenous culture should be able to truly understand it.
· Include the complete address of any and all Web sites you use
Some of the following questions may be answered in a few paragraphs, but some may require you to write more than a page. You probably will need to consult more than one WEB site. If you choose a culture that has been changed by another, be certain to stick with the traditional aspects of your chosen culture before it was contaminated by outsiders. Integrate concepts, ideas, and theories from your textbook and Web sites. Remember: demonstrate that you can truly use concepts from this course.
1. Is this truly a culture? What makes it a culture? Why is it a culture? (Remember language!)
2. Where is thisculture geographically located? Cite if you quote.
3. Of the patterns of subsistence covered in your videos and textbook, which is the dominant type used in your culture and why?
4. How have these people adapted to their physical environment?
5. Is this a preliterate or literate culture? Explain.
6. How are mates selected? (Think on a cultural basis.)
7. How is descent traced? Describe ...
Ethics, Values, and Social ResponsibilityEthics has been broadly.docxgitagrimston
Ethics, Values, and Social Responsibility
Ethics has been broadly defined as concerning certain issues or situations as being fair/unfair, right/wrong, or just/unjust according to the values adopted by a given culture or society. These values act as the acceptable standards developed and nurtured by society. As societies have developed and become more knowledge-oriented and socially alert, the need for social responsibility has increased. According to Davis and Blomstrom (1975), social responsibility is “the obligation of decision makers to take actions which protect and improve the welfare of society as a whole along with their own interests” (p. 39).
Throughout the course of your graduate studies, you have studied a variety of social problems and issues. Specifically, identify the top five (5) ethical issues confronting your field of study. After you have briefly addressed each ethical issue, then rank them according to the literature in your field of study and/or by the importance placed upon them by the current media. As you rank them, please document your sources and justification for the ranking. Finally, analyze each ethical issue according to its impact on the field, relevance to the current and future stakeholders in the field, and make any and all recommendations for improving such ethical issues, situations or dilemmas that impact your field of study. During this analysis, please consider the issue of social responsibility and how leaders in your field have addressed these ethical issues.
Instructions:
Write a well researched, thorough response to one of the questions posed above in an APA formatted. Include 7 scholarly references in your paper. Respond in 4-5 content pages, not including title page, abstract, conclusion or references, to each question.
The turnitin result should be less than 15%.

music, magazines, books, comic books, video games, and advertisements, which although not a mass
medium, is relevant to our class) and the media’s portrayals or representations of his/her cultural
group. The focus of your interview should be this person’s beliefs and feelings about how the

character name if relevant; TV shows and characters; songs; names of video games; CNN,
FOX, or other news source; etc.).
● What messages about your cultural group have you gotten from the media? Ask for specific
examples. Again: are there different messages being presented in different media? Are
mediated messages different in news media than they are in entertainment media? Specific
examples will be helpful.

cultural group)?
● Have you ever been interviewed by the media? Was your experience positive or negative?

Pablo believes that diversity is the most important issue in our culture, and that it is greatly underemphasized. On the other hand, Ralph rarely thinks of diversity, except when it is mentioned in the workplace. Monica is sensitized to multicultural issues because her parents are immigrants who still struggle with discrimination after being here for 20 years.

Remember not to deviate from the set interview schedule (although you can give minimal responses to requests for clarification or use neutral prompts or probes to get them going or keep them on track). Give your participant a pseudonym and record no information that could lead to their unique identification. Take detailed and exhaustive notes! Record everything because you may not realize that something is important until after the fact. Remember that the purpose of these content analyses is to gather data about how members of different groups think about, talk about, behave toward, or otherwise respond to another. You don’t have to record information that does not pertain to our purpose, but do record everything that may shed light on our research topic!
Take detailed notes during the interview. Include what they said and how they said it [important body language, pauses, and other non-verbal expressions should be noted in square brackets]. Find a quite place as soon after the interview is concluded to record your notes into this form. Clean your notes by removing your shorthand and explaining every detail. Remember that these notes need to be understandable on their own. Include everything and add additional details as you recall them. When you add detail after the fact in this first pass, use “Bright Green” text to distinguish it from your first observations.
Then set your notes aside for about 24 hours so that you can think about them some more. Make a third pass through your notes and use “Blue” text to distinguish these subsequent reflections from your first observations and your initial additions. It is important to make these distinctions clear because your understanding of the interview may change with time. Do not worry if your first, second, and third passes through your data agree with one another. Again, your perspective may change. It is important that you do not delete previous notes, but merely add to them each time through.
Finally, in all three passes, be careful to distinguish between what was said and your interpretation of what was said. Actual descriptions should be recorded in regular text (in the appropriate color), but your interpretations, opinions, and inferences from the data should be italicized. Try to maintain this “fact-value” distinction as carefully as you can (although it is impossible to be perfect in this regard). You can use as many pages for your notes as you need. This document will expand to make room. But please be conscientious about recording everything, including your reactions as the interviewer! Good luck and have fun!

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

What Should be the Christian View of Anime?Joe Muraguri
We will learn what Anime is and see what a Christian should consider before watching anime movies? We will also learn a little bit of Shintoism religion and hentai (the craze of internet pornography today).
1. In the novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus Finch explains to the children that it’s a sin to kill a
mockingbird. He explains that mockingbirds don’t do anything except sing. Meaning they don’t bother
anyone and simply create music for everyone to enjoy, therefore it would wrong to harm them. As we
continue to read in the novel, we will find that several characters in the story present themselves as
metaphoric mockingbirds. They are innocent individuals who are persecuted based on rumors and other
people’s false impressions. Throughout history and even today, many groups of people have been
persecuted based on their religious, political, or ethnic affiliations. You will research one of these groups
and present the information to our class.
With your partner(s) choose a group of people who have been persecuted.
You MUST use at least 3 DIFFERENT Sources.
Find details and answers to the following questions:
1. Who is the group? How many of them were persecuted?
2. When did this take place? Where did it take place? What was happening in the world when this
occurred?
3. What type of persecution occurred? Why did it occur? By whom? How did others react?
4. What is the end result? Any law/policy changes? What’s happening with the group today?
Write 2 multiple choice quiz questions about facts presented in your presentation that will then be
used in a final quiz assessing how well students listened to presentations.
-Typed on a single sheet of paper. Provide the correct answer.
You (and your partners) will prepare a 5-8 minute Power Point Presentation:
6-8 SLIDES:
FIRST SLIDE: introduction- Short 30 second Animoto Video introducing the topic.
3-5 SLIDES: information about the history and facts surrounding the topic:
