Please respond to these post with one source with At least 4 sentences CAT In two sentences, explain the concept of affirmative action as discussed in the course materials. Does this definition differ from your prior beliefs about the nature of affirmative action? If so, how? ........................................................ Olivia Frank 4 posts Re:Topic 4 DQ 1 Hello Everyone! Functionalist theory and conflict theory differ for several reasons. One of the main reasons are that functionalist theory focuses on different parts that work together and help assist eaach other. Conflict theory focuses on the elite and how their power control eveything. For instance, conflict theory in race-related issues would suggest that the inequality that certain races receive is a reason why their is a higher incarceration rate in lower socioecononmic areas. The conflict is that these individuals are not a part of the elite. Functionalism would suggest that parts of society are equally distributed and certain things happen to unfortunate indviduals. Have a great week everyone ................................... Keionta White 3 posts Re:Topic 4 DQ 2 Institutionalized racism is when a social institution, such as the government, schools or law enforcement, treats a group of people in a negative manner because of their race. Individual racism is when a person personally doesnt like someone because of their race and they act on it. Institutionalized racism leads to social inequality while individual racism leads to acts of hate and the beliefs of stereotypes and generalizations. Institutionalized racism is tricky because even though many social institutions can't discriminate doesn't mean they don't. Individual racism isn't illegal unless a person is acting on their beliefs, for example, hate crimes or harassment . I've witnessed and have been a victim of racism and even though it is unfortunate, we live in a society where we are entitled to our own opinions beliefes and values. Institutionalized racism is the worst form of racism, in my opinion, because it prevents people that are being discriminated agianst to progress and have the same opportunites as others. ................................................ Michelle Serrano 2 posts Re:Topic 4 DQ 2 Behavioral norms along with stereotyped thoughts are a simple way of defining institutional racism. It is subtler and goes unnoticed. It can happen within our government, large corporations, or in politics. When defining interpersonal racism it can come from within one’s own social class, race, or their own ethnic race. Some people are put into categories or groups to define themselves. These two forms of racism are different as one is disregarded and seen as those in “categories”. And interpersonal racism effects people, families, work groups, or even social groups. Many things still happen within our society that are illegal.

In his book The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge (1993), J.F. Lyotard announces a change in the way in which we manage our meanings in Western Culture societies. He points out that all of our metanarratives have fallen in postmodernity because there is an active and continuous process of incredulity towards them. Our recent history shows how ideologies (and religions) can lead us to war and destruction. Our society seems to be more pragmatic and scientific in this regard. Our narrative skills are developed socially, but we need to depart from certain cultural hypotheses in order to make meaning. These hypotheses are included in the metanarrative that we have inherited from our parents, family or “defining communities” (Charles Taylor, Sources of the Self, 1989). This inheritance still exists, but: 1.Our “defining communities” tend not to have a strong and sharp narrative to pass on to their offspring. 2.Our society doesn’t share a clear and stable metanarrative from which everyone can judge his own life and experience. 3.It has become desirable culturally speaking (after the hippies, May 68, the Punks, the Spanish Movida, etc.) to rebel against parents, established social values, etc. this has been demonstrated in the book The Conquest of Cool: Business Culture, Counterculture, and the Rise of Hip Consumerism (Thomas Frank, 1997) and La Revolución Divertida (Ramón González Férriz, 2012)

During Week 5, we studied social stratification and how it influences what goes on in many social interactions among people. After you have read the reading assignment and lecture for this week, please respond to all parts of the discussion by the due date assigned: What are some of the factors that affect social mobility? Can these be overcome? Do you believe the structural-functionalist or the social conflict approach best explains social stratification? Why? How does the media reflect attitudes on gender as far as depicting women and men in very traditional roles? Provide two detailed examples that substantiate your points—these can be an advertisement, television show, website, or magazine. When you think of various groups (race, class, and gender) in society, which ones have the most power and which ones have the least? Using Intersection Theory, identify two groups that have unequal amounts of power and resources, being specific and using the text and outside resources. For each group, has the power dynamic changed over time? Do you think it will change in the future? Why or why not? .

Review for Midterm, American Culture 1. Individualism and civic or community involvement. What does individualism mean in American culture, how it relates to concepts and values such as freedom, democracy, civic responsibility, community involvement. Be able to discuss how all this is related. Be able to discuss the concept of social capital and its decline. Understand and be able to explain the difference between utilitarian liberalism and moral liberalism. How do Americans connect their own fulfillment to that of other people, despite (or because of) individualism? 2. America as a land apart. This examines how Americans have always thought of America as somehow different, special, set apart from other people, cultures, or countries. It applies to questions like whether America is seen as a haven for the world’s oppressed, as a power in the world, etc. It refers to how many generations of immigrants have seen America and why they came here. It also refers to several opposing or conflicting attitudes and values, such as isolationism (America should not get involved with the rest of the world), nativism (foreign immigrants are the problem), extreme patriotism? What are the positive and negative sides to American exceptionalism? 3. Equality and inequality. This includes the tensions between our cultural ideals and values of equality and the reality of inequality in America—poverty, racism, the heritage of slavery and relations to Native Americans, etc. You should be able to explain how/why social categories such as race, social class, and even gender, as socially constructed, not biological or inherent--how racial and class categories are socially constructed and negotiated and “man-made,” rather than biologically inherent and “God-given.” Basically: our physical and genetic traits are inherent and given, but how we and others choose to perceive, emphasize, or ignore various physical and genetic traits, how we place people into arbitrary categories based on these traits, and how we set one category as “higher” or better than another are all socially constructed and learned. We can look at inequality as giving different groups of people different access to wealth, power, and prestige, and how the same social categories that define our identity (race, ethnicity, gender, etc.) also place us somewhere in a social hierarchy. We can always “negotiate” and try to change this. How can inequality be seen on the level of individuals and images (personal attitudes of prejudice, etc.), institutions discrimination, (policies and practices of institutions that perpetuate racism or inequality), and ideology (systems of attitudes, beliefs, ideas, and symbols that rationalize and support or challenge the “rightness” of a situation of inequality).We can change individuals on the level interpersonal relationships, but if we do not change institutional policies and practices and develop an alternative ideology, we won’t change inequality.

1. Martin Luther King, Jr. was an angry young man who hated the segregated world of the American South and the injustices he saw inflicted on African Americans all over the nation. In adulthood he came to feel that anger offered no solution to the problems that he and other African Americans faced. What made him changed his mind? What were the roots of the philosophy that he adopted and used to land the civil rights movement of the 1950’s and 1960’s? How did King give Americans a sense of self-worth and the tools to achieve their aims? 2. What were SNCC and SCLC? How did these organizations differ from each other? In what ways were they alike? What changes took place in SNCC after the mid 1960’s? How did Black Power differ from civil right movement under King? 3. What were the two accomplishments of civil right of the mid-1960’s? What specific action did King and his followers undertake to influence public opinion and effect legislative changes and at what cost? 4. Describe the internal and external difficulties that beser King and the civil right movement in the late 1960’s. How did King defuse charges that he was a Communist? How did he react to the FBI crusade against him? To white and black backlashes? To the attacks on his policies that seemed to come from all sides? What did his support of the anti-Vietnam war movement cost him? 5. Why do you think Americans were receptive to King’s pacific message and nonviolent approach in the 1960’s? Do you think similar tactics would be effective against oppression in a country such as the People’s Republic of China? 1. What do you think of Erik Erikson’s psychological model and Lawrence Goodheart use of it in this selection? Explain your reason. 2. Discuss Malcolm X’s evolving racial feeling about himself in particular about whites and African Americans in general. How were they influenced by his childhood experiences, his life in the ghetto, and his experiences with the Islamic movement? What effect did education have on his views? 3. According to Goodheart “the shaping of Malcolm’s sense of self as a counterpart to the historical oppression of African Americans constitutes a central theme in his life”. In what way do you think his personal feelings reflected those in a large community? Compare his appeal of that of Martin Luther King Jr., about whom you read in the last selection. Why do you think Malcolm X have a continued appeal? What does that say about racial relations in the Untied States since the death of Malcolm X? 4. What is Goodheart final analysis of Malcolm X and the success and failures of his career? 5. Compare Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr., their personalities, their backgrounds and their personal reactions over time to racial discrimination. Compare the two approaches to dealing with racial injustice in America. Which was the most effective and why? Did they help or hurt each other? .

Review the section entitled “The Format of a News Release” in the beginning of Chapter 6. Choose an existing product or a made up product and write a one to two page news release (not including title and reference pages) announcing the introduction of the new product using the provided format. The paper: Must be one to two double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center (Links to an external site.) . Must include a separate title page with the following: Title of paper Student’s name Course name and number Instructor’s name Date submitted Must use at leaste one scholarly source in addition to the course text. Must document all sources in APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. News Release Format Unlike a novel, where the plot thickens and the climax comes at the end, the essential points of a news release appear right up front—in the first sentence or paragraph(s), commonly referred to as the lead . The news release lead—like the lead in a newspaper news story—answers all the pertinent questions that a reader might have, specifically: Who? What? Where? When? Why? How? In other words, once you’ve read the first paragraph or so in a news release, you know all you need to know about the subject at hand.Everything else is interesting but less pertinent detail. For example, the following is a solid news release lead: Brooklyn, NY, April 28, 2014 —Jay Z and Beyonce announced today that in response to overwhelming demand from their fans, they would depart on a joint “On the Run” tour, covering 16 cities in the U.S. and Canada, between June and August. Inverted pyramid. News release format is that of an upside-down pyramid, where the most important facts come first and less important facts appear in descending order. In about three dozen words, this one sentence answers just about all the primary questions anyone might have about this news event. As the release proceeds, other details—the specific cities, format of the concerts, and so on—might be discussed. The public relations writer attacks the release by answering the relevant questions in descending order of importance—the most relevant first, the less relevant next. In this way, news release writing is less writing than it is selecting which facts are more important than others. It is the writer’s job to arrange these facts so that the reader understands immediately the significance of the announcement and then learns about the less essential information in the body of the release. This format is known as the upside-down or inverted pyramid , where the most important items are displayed immediately and the facts dwindle in terms of importance as the release approaches its tip.

Workplace incivility can be defined as repeated offensive, disrespectful, or discouraging behavior, misuse of power, or unfair punishments that make the receiver distressed and feel shamed; creating strain; and decreasing the employee’s self-confidence (Warner, Sommers, Zappa, & Thornlow, 2016).
