Black Lives Matter
The document discusses issues of race relations in the 21st century, focusing on the Black Lives Matter movement and examining whether lynch mobs have simply evolved or if racial tensions are still prevalent in society today. It explores the role of social media in the movement and questions whether celebrities have a duty to take action, while also noting that racial tension is not just black and white and considering the differences between cultural appreciation and appropriation.
Racism, Riots and the Role of the Media & Revolution
1) The document summarizes Dr. Peter Hammond's views on racism, riots, the role of media, and revolution. He argues that violence should not be confused with peaceful protest and that the media has selectively reported on issues.
2) Hammond draws on his experience in Africa documenting Christian persecution in communist and Muslim-dominated countries. He advocates for decentralization and warns against globalization trends.
3) The document promotes a biblical view of justice and reconciliation and argues that positive, constructive actions are better ways to respond to abuse rather than violence.
Black lives matter
The document discusses the Black Lives Matter movement from several perspectives:
- Black Lives Matter aims to address racial inequalities faced by black people but is criticized for not acknowledging issues within black communities or other lives lost to police violence.
- While the movement began focusing on racially motivated police killings, some argue it has lost focus by opposing issues like a public library banning race-exclusive meetings.
- Statistics show more white people, not just black people, are killed by police each year, regardless of race people may be misperceived as armed threats. However, the Black Lives Matter website focuses on spreading their message through social media rather than detailing short-term policy goals.
Race african americans
For many years, African Americans have faced racism through racial profiling by police and socioeconomic struggles. Statistically, they fall below the poverty line more often than white Americans. This class division was exacerbated after Hurricane Katrina, when African Americans in New Orleans were left in complete devastation with no assistance while segregated from the rest of the population. Research shows growing economic gaps between African Americans and other races, resulting in less education, lower incomes, and more poverty, crime, and incarceration in the African American community.
Racism
Racism involves believing some races are superior to others. It can take direct forms through unfair treatment based on ethnicity, or indirect forms through discrimination within institutions. Throughout history, racism has justified practices like slavery and led to atrocities like the Holocaust. The civil rights movement in the 1950s-60s promoted equality and challenged racism through nonviolent protests.
History of racism & portland
This document discusses the history and impacts of racism in Portland, Oregon and South Africa. It begins by defining race and racism, then outlines the origins and progression of racist ideologies and systems from the 14th century through today. Key periods discussed include the rise of slavery and colonialism between 1300-1600, the emergence of biological racism in the 19th century, and the Holocaust and civil rights movement in the 20th century. The document then examines examples of individual/interpersonal and systemic/institutional racism, and considers whether Portland exhibits racist traits through various examples and analyses. It concludes by reviewing apartheid in South Africa, the legacy of racism there today according to Trevor Noah's accounts, and ongoing issues discussed in recent news reports.
Race and racism
The document discusses the social construction of race and how it relates to power dynamics between groups. Racism is defined as the subjugation of one cultural group by another for economic advantage and power over that group, which causes harm. Racist expression or belief warrants the exclusion of racially different groups. Color-blindness can be a new form of racism, called "born again racism," that is post-civil rights and exacerbated by neoliberalism, where racism exists without acknowledging its historical or institutional roots.

1) The document discusses the use of racist language, particularly the derogatory ethnic label "Nigger". It analyzes conversations and a news article about the use of this word.
2) It explores how the word can be used for self-labeling by some African Americans but is seen as inappropriate by others. It also examines how the word reifies ethnic differences and is used to otherize and oppress groups.
3) The document concludes that the only acceptable use of the word is for self-labeling and that it otherwise causes ethnic divisions and power struggles through otherizing and denying racism.

Racism is the belief that characteristics and abilities can be attributed to people simply on the basis of their race and that some racial groups are superior to others. Racism has been used to encourage fear or hatred of others during times of conflict. While some argue that racist speech should be allowed as free speech, others point out it can lead to serious consequences. Racial discrimination refers to separating people through social division for differential treatment, and can be official policy or exerted without being legalized.

Black feminism remains important because U.S. Black women constitute an oppressed group. As a
collectivity, U.S. Black women participate in a dialectical relationship linking African-American women’s
oppression and activism.
Hellenism Article
The document discusses the impending reduction in federal funding for public broadcasting in the United States. It draws a parallel between this fight and the ancient fight between dogmatic Christianity and Hellenism in the 4th century under Roman emperor Julian. Complete reliance on corporate sponsorship for funding public broadcasting would degrade its integrity and journalism by making it dictated by economic interests, similar to how materialism and religious cults now threaten culture. Supporting public broadcasting with federal and personal funding is important to ensure the celebration of art and culture's parity with economic and material forces in American society, just as Julian fought for Hellenism.
The History of Racism and a Challenging White Supremacy Workshop
This document discusses the history of racism and provides a working definition. It explains how Europeans began seeing race in the 15th century to justify colonialism and slavery. Racism was defined as prejudice plus power. Race was constructed as a way to assign social status with white as the model. The document outlines how Christianity, blood purity tests during the Inquisition, and later scientific racism were used to portray Africans and indigenous people as inferior to justify oppression.
Racism 07
This document discusses racism and tools to identify and undo it. It defines racism as systemic oppression of one race by another through economic, political, social, and psychological means. Racism is prejudice plus power operating through institutions and structures. Dismantling racism requires simultaneously addressing economic oppression. Racism persists in areas like education, housing, criminal justice, and opposition to affirmative action and immigrants. Overcoming racism is a lifelong struggle that requires self-education, listening to people of color, and challenging privilege and unearned advantage that perpetuates injustice.

(PDF) Free Unveiling the Nation: The Politics of Secularism in France and Que...
Over the last few decades, politicians in Europe and North America have fiercely debated the effects of a growing Muslim minority on their respective national identities. Some of these countries have prohibited Islamic religious coverings in public spaces and institutions, while in others, legal restriction remains subject to intense political conflict. Seeking to understand these different outcomes, social scientists have focused on the role of countries' historically rooted models of nationhood and their attendant discourses of secularism. Emily Laxer's Unveiling the Nation problematizes this approach. Using France and Quebec as illustrative cases, she traces how the struggle of political parties for power and legitimacy shapes states' responses to Islamic signs. Drawing on historical evidence and behind-the-scenes interviews with politicians and activists, Laxer uncovers unseen links between structures of partisan conflict and the strategies that political actors employ when
Stop Racism
Racism is defined as the belief that human races can be divided into inferior and superior groups. Historically, racism led Europeans to view non-white races as inferior and in need of civilization. There are three main types of racism: individual racism involving prejudiced beliefs, institutional racism involving discriminatory policies, and environmental racism producing harmful environmental effects on groups. Segregation involves the separation of racial or ethnic groups through custom or law and is often based on a dominant group's sense of superiority over subordinate groups. Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. were influential civil rights advocates who fought against racism and segregation through non-violent protest.

This document summarizes a qualitative textual analysis of media coverage of the controversy over Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas's hair. It analyzes over 50 articles and 1,500 tweets from August 1-9, 2012. The coverage began on blogs highlighting criticism of Douglas's hair on Black Twitter, then spread to mainstream publications. Frames within the coverage positioned black women critics negatively and distanced Douglas from blackness. The spread of the story showed how news circulates from social media to traditional outlets. It also revealed tensions around black women's empowerment and representation online.
Stereotyping in the media
The document discusses how media in New Zealand uses stereotypes when portraying Māori and Asian cultures. It presents examples of negative stereotypes used to describe Māori as "bad, sad or mad" and Asians as a "yellow peril" or "threatening other." Two surveys discussed found that greater exposure to television news was associated with perceptions of Māori as criminal or dependent on welfare. While the media needs to be more self-aware, consumers also must think critically about stereotypes. Reducing stereotypes will benefit New Zealand's increasingly diverse society.

This document provides a review of the book "Review of Development, Poverty of Culture, and Social Policy" by Brij Mohan. The book refutes that poverty is solely an economic issue and rejects the idea that poverty is based on culture. It offers new ways to understand poverty in order to build a future that can overcome it. The book contains 15 chapters divided into three parts examining the culture of development, the mind of darkness, and transformative social policy. It argues that prevailing theories of development have failed and offers the concept of the "Poverty of Culture" as a new framework for understanding inequality. The reviewer recommends the book for those interested in connecting ideas across disciplines to address social issues beyond traditional approaches.

Black Immigrants and the Realities of Racism:
Comments and Questions
NANCY FONER
BLACK IMMIGRANTS, AS VIOLET SHOWERS Johnson reminds
us, are an important part of the history of immigration to the United States,
and they continue to be an important part today. This is especially striking
given their growing number—and proportion—in the foreign- born popula-
tion. By 2013, according to U.S. Census data, the number of black immi-
grants in the country had climbed to nearly 4 million, more than a fourfold
increase since 1980; they now represent almost one in ten of all immigrants
and 9 percent of the nation’s black population. Currently, about half of black
immigrants in the United States are Caribbean- born, and a little over a
third are from Africa. Indeed, the rise in the black African- born population
is noteworthy, more than doubling between 2000 and 2013, when it had
reached 1.4 million.1
The encounter with the American racial system, as Johnson makes clear,
is a central component of the black immigrant experience in the United
States, regardless of where they were born. This is brought out in Johnson’s
focus on three violent incidents in the last thirty years: the 1988 killing of
Ethiopian student Mulugeta Seraw in Portland, Oregon, and, in New York
City, the 1999 fatal shooting of West African Amadou Diallo, and the 1997
beating and sodomy of Haitian immigrant Abner Louima. This kind of anti-
black violence is mercifully rare, but the incidents underscore, tragically and
dramatically, some essential features of the role of race for black immigrants
in the United States.2 Johnson’s discussion points to many key aspects of the
impact of racism. It also provides the basis for some additional comments,
and raises questions for further study, on several topics she considers or
alludes to: negative encounters with the police, differences between the
black foreign- born and the second generation, relations between blacks of
immigrant origin and African Americans, and the role of the particular city
of settlement in influencing how race and racism are experienced.
Although I would not go so far as to characterize New York City as
tantamount to a police state, as one of Johnson’s discussions seems to sug-
gest, there is no question that blacks, native- and foreign- born alike, often

experience racial discrimination and harassment from the police. In a large-
scale study of young adult members of the second generation in the New
York City metropolitan area, West Indians reported the most discrimina-
tion (compared to Dominicans, South Americans, Chinese, and Russians),
especially in public places on the streets, in stores, and from the police. In

This summary provides an overview of the key points in the document:
1) Critical race theory examines how racism is embedded within systems of power and how it shapes political, economic, and social structures and policies.
2) The document introduces concepts from critical race theorists like Charles Mills who argue that white supremacy creates a system that channels resources to white people and is maintained through ignorance about systemic racism.
3) It discusses how education in the US often fails to teach about systemic racism and links between past and present, leading many to deny that racism still exists or impacts society. The election of Obama was used by some to argue racism is no longer a serious problem.
Racism In Racism
Racism is learned behavior that involves prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism against others based on their race or the belief that one's own race is superior. There are two types: de jure racism enacted through discriminatory laws and de facto racism that occurs through social interactions. The document discusses an incident of racism in 1949 where the body of Felix Longoria, a Hispanic WWII veteran, was denied burial in a Texas funeral home because of his ethnicity. Dr. Hector Garcia and Lyndon B. Johnson worked to arrange burial in Washington D.C. to protest this discrimination.
NEW VISIONS OF RACE: Foregrounding African American Dramaturgy
ABSTRACT : This paper aims at examining the evolution of race relationship in the United States of
America, as is perceived in the plays under consideration. The paper is aimed at showing the relationship
between ethnicity and nation building, mindful of the fact that race, ethnicity and identity are concepts that
have been disconcerting the American society for a long time. Using African American criticism, and
psychoanalytic criticism, the paper portrays that ethnic groups are not stereotypes, but are dynamic and
progressive, and that there is no quintessential ethnic group. African Americans have realized that white
racists intentionally practice segregation so as to relegate them to the periphery. By so doing, they (whites) will
always control the American economy. Through this realization, most African Americans do not allow race to
become an issue to them, but have decided to concentrate on how to rebuild their self-worth and self-esteem, to
become economically feasible in the United States of America. Consequently, the playwrights of the plays
under study have proven that African American cultural heritage is part and parcel of the American culture,
and its value cannot be underestimated. The paper therefore reveals how through constant conflicts and the
consequences of such conflicts on the socio-economic and political atmosphere of the country, both whites and
blacks are coming to realize that it is not the colour of a person that counts, but the integral values the person
possesses.
Toward Rethinking Self-Defense in a Racist Culture...by Dhoruba Al Mujahid Bi...
This document discusses rethinking the concept of self-defense against racist aggression. It argues that prevailing ideas in US society are based on the notion of white skin privilege and European superiority. This justified the use of violence against people of color throughout history, including the genocide of Native Americans and establishment of slavery. The author asserts that force and violence are deeply ingrained in American culture and institutions. While non-violence is encouraged for oppressed groups, the majority is trained in the use of force. This creates a double standard that imbalance between the beneficiaries of a racist system and its underclass.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

The cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.
It's based on the first part of this research paper:

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

Yet near-daily news reports regularly invoke white as a demographic category and recount instances of racialized violence as well as an increased sensitivity to expressions of racial unrest. Clearly, American society isn’t as color-blind as people would like to believe. In Rhetorics of Whiteness: Postracial Hauntings in Popular Culture, Social Media, and Education, contributors reveal how identifications with racialized whiteness continue to manifest themselves in American culture.
