Debate & Diplomacy in History
The document discusses the concepts of debate, diplomacy, success, and failure throughout history. Debate refers to the exchange of ideas or opinions on an issue between two or more parties, while diplomacy involves negotiating between nations using tact and skill. The document provides several examples of important debates and issues in history, such as the evolution debate, women's equality, civil rights, and Vietnam war protests. It also discusses examples of diplomatic successes like ping-pong diplomacy between the US and China, and failures like banks failing during economic downturns. Music is presented as another form of debate and protest that can provide insights into societies.
Best Audiobooks App Dismantling America
Thomas Sowell's collection of essays discusses the decline of American values and institutions through the deliberate dismantling of traditions and the will of the people. The underlying theme across issues like bailouts, immigration, marriage, and security is whether America is degenerating from the values expected to be passed down. There are determined efforts to change what is seen as fundamentally wrong with America's history, laws, and role in the world. The next election may be the last chance to stop those dismantling America before the country passes a point of no return.
Race 2009
The document discusses the concepts of race and ethnicity. It provides definitions of race as a socially constructed category based on biological traits, and ethnicity as based on cultural criteria. It also presents data on racial disparities in median income, poverty rates, and health insurance coverage in the US. It raises critical questions about how race is used in the 2008 US presidential election between Obama and McCain.
Congressional Redistricting
The document discusses congressional redistricting, which occurs every 10 years after the census to reapportion congressional seats among states based on population changes. It can be manipulated through gerrymandering to benefit political parties, as was alleged in Ohio's redistricting. The Supreme Court case Wesberry v. Sanders in 1964 established that congressional districts must be equal in population size to address malapportionment issues raised by population shifts.
Government
The document discusses congressional redistricting, which occurs every 10 years after the census to reapportion congressional seats among states based on population changes. States must redraw district lines to make districts equal in population size. However, gerrymandering allows the party in power of a state to redraw lines for political advantage by packing opposing voters into a few districts or cracking them among many to dilute their voting power and influence election outcomes, contributing to the two-party system's dominance.
September Newsletter
This document summarizes Kate Brown's activities as Oregon Secretary of State in September 2014.

It also covers Brown launching a social media campaign to promote voter registration, participating in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge to raise awareness, and students and officials across Oregon supporting voter registration efforts.
Informative Presentation By Gertrude Malesi
The document discusses the experiences of African immigrants in America. It describes how many immigrants fled to America due to violence and unrest in their home countries caused by political turmoil and ethnic conflict. Immigrants leave behind lives, careers, and wealth in search of safety, opportunity, and peace. Though adjusting to a new culture and country is difficult, immigrants are determined to make new lives and contribute to their adopted communities in America.
Chapter 9 Inequalities of Race and Ethnicity
The document discusses issues of race, racism, and inequality faced by minority groups in schools and communities. It notes that some students, such as white students, are treated better and have more opportunities than black and Hispanic students. There are misconceptions between racial and social groups that cause stress and lack of communication. Certain issues around race and relationships need to be addressed to promote understanding and reduce racism.

Stepfamilies face complex legal issues due to inconsistent federal and state policies regarding stepparent and stepchild rights. Most states provide few legal rights to stepparents and do not recognize stepchildren as dependents. While 11 states have stepparent visitation laws, many have restrictions, and policies vary widely between states. The document recommends establishing more consistent federal and state policies to better support the legal needs of stepfamilies.

FYS 100 - STUDENT ATHLETES UNIONIZING

The sources present differing views on whether college athletes should unionize and be paid. One source supports unionization and paying athletes. Another argues against unionization and paying athletes, citing NCAA restrictions. A third discusses a court ruling that classified some athletes as workers. The document concludes there is no clear consensus on paying college athletes.

Cultivating Black Male Success: Turning the Plight of Perpetual Possibility i...
Presentation at the 2018 UGA Global Conference on Sport for Social Change
The media has become a primary source for Black males to locate sources of self-representation outside their familial networks. Entertainers, collegiate, and professional athletes often become their role models. As a myriad of research informs, a result has been the misfortune of young Black males continuously becoming socialized to value athletics over academic endeavors (Beamon & Bell, 2006; Benson, 2000; Bimper & Harrison, 2011; Edwards, 2000; Fuller, Harrison, & Bukstein, 2016). With numerous problematic symbols of Black success, coupled with false narratives of deficiency, our young Black kings are at risk of embarking upon a destructive route to (assumed) prosperity and (perceived) upward mobility. Ultimately, they may fall victim to what I characterize as the plight of perpetual possibility. Utilizing previous research and personal experience this presentation seeks to unpack elements of the plight, concluding with recommendations for those who have a vested interest in Black male success to cultivate a more holistic scholar-athlete identity.

The document discusses how racism still exists within the US political system. It argues that the Tea Party emerged in opposition to the first black president and targets policies helping minorities. The Senate is mainly older white men. Talk shows stereotype minority candidates. Everyday Americans and officials think stereotypes are normal, leading to higher minority crime and incarceration rates. The president faces more opposition due to his race. Media spreads biased information affecting votes. Racism judges the president's ideas rather than the ideas themselves.

The Uniform Crime Reports are the most commonly used but have limitations like not capturing all crimes and being voluntarily reported.

The document discusses the social construction of childhood and the evolution of conceptualizations of childhood over time. It notes that childhood, as understood today, is a relatively recent development dating back only a few hundred years. Prior to this, children were often seen as miniature adults or as non-human. The treatment of children in the past would be seen as criminal today. Two contrasting views of childhood emerged in the late 17th/18th century - the innocent child and the depraved child. The concept of delinquency also developed over this period as the notion of childhood took shape.
