This document summarizes student activism in the 1960s compared to today. In the 1960s, a counterculture movement arose in San Francisco characterized by peaceful protest, environmentalism, and rejection of social norms. Students actively protested the Vietnam War through marches, sit-ins, strikes, and teach-ins. Four students were shot and killed at Kent State University in 1970 during an anti-war protest. Today, fewer students are aware of or actively protesting wars, with only around 50% voting compared to 60% in the 1960s. The document encourages renewed student activism and lists organizations to get involved with.

David Horowitz does not belong on campus | Daily Trojan
The document summarizes arguments against David Horowitz speaking at USC. It notes that Horowitz has made unfounded and racist remarks, dismissing systemic racism and describing the Black Lives Matter movement as a "hate group." It also says he has portrayed all Muslims as extremists who support enemies of the US. The document argues that Horowitz's hateful rhetoric against minorities is unacceptable and will breed intolerance, not academic discourse. It concludes that while anti-Semitism should be addressed, platforming Horowitz risks promoting inflammatory speech over respectful discussion.
Vietnam war, weshah & shifaa - 9B

Civil Rights Era Overview
The Civil Rights Movement in the United States gained momentum in the post-World War II era. Key early events and court cases like Jackie Robinson breaking the MLB color barrier, Brown v. Board of Education, and the Montgomery Bus Boycott laid the groundwork. Grassroots organizations like the NAACP, CORE, SCLC, and SNCC employed tactics like sit-ins, freedom rides, and marches to challenge segregation and push for desegregation and voting rights. Figures like MLK and Malcolm X advocated for change through nonviolent and more radical approaches. Landmark legislation like the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965 were passed amid continuing protests, though tensions and divisions within

Asian American Movement Considerations
The document discusses the diversity within the Asian American population and the challenges that presents for defining an Asian American movement. It notes that no single Asian ethnic group makes up a majority, and that Asian Americans differ in their religious affiliations, concentrations within Christian denominations, educational attainment, and household income. This diversity means that different Asian American subgroups face very different social and religious contexts. The document also examines past Asian American social movements and how the meaning of "Asian American" is interpreted differently by second-generation Asian Americans. It raises questions about what a modern Asian American movement might focus on and how Christian Asian Americans might want to engage.

The document discusses the roles of women during World War 1. Before the war, women had limited opportunities and earned much less than men for the same work. During the war, women took on new roles as nurses with the American Red Cross, members of the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps, and worked in factories and farms while the men were away. Their expanded roles in supporting the war effort helped advance the argument for women's suffrage.

Hussain Hypocrisy
M.F. Hussain depicted many Hindu religious figures, such as Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesha, in controversial nude paintings. When questioned about offending Hindus, he claimed it was out of respect, but he provided inconsistent explanations. His depictions are criticized as inappropriate given iconic status of figures in Hinduism. In contrast, violent protests erupted globally over Prophet Muhammad cartoons, but Indian media coverage downplayed reaction against Hussain while harshly criticizing those opposing Prophet depictions. This suggests hypocrisy in defending free speech selectively based on religion depicted.
Is it unpatriotic to protest?
The document discusses whether protesting is unpatriotic through several images showing historical examples of protest in the United States, including the Boston Tea Party of 1773, a woman's march at the White House in 1917, four African American students sitting at a whites-only lunch counter in 1960, and two athletes raising their fists in protest at the 1968 Olympics. The document also references the concept of "repertoire of contention" in social movement theory regarding the various tools and actions available to protest movements.

Student Activism in Post Apartheid Era: A Curse of Self Flagellation and Acad...
This document discusses the deterioration of student governance and activism in South African universities into anarchy and self-destruction. It outlines three phases of student activism from 1960 to the present. Currently, political groups have invaded campuses and turned academic activism into "academic gangsterism" characterized by senseless property destruction and financial waste. Issues like inadequate infrastructure, understaffing, political interference, and tense transformations have fueled unrest. The document questions whether transformation should be incorporated into curriculums and whether political parties should be allowed to create student wings on campuses. It calls for a return to genuine academic activism.
Zambia: Student Political Activism
Student political activism played an important role in Zambia's transition to independence and opposition to apartheid in South Africa. Zambian students participated in demonstrations and protests against colonial rule in the 1960s, which contributed to Zambia gaining independence in 1964. After independence, students continued to engage in political activism and opposition, supporting liberation movements in neighboring countries still under colonial rule. The University of Zambia became a center for anti-apartheid activism in the region. However, political activism declined after Zambia became a one-party state in 1972 under President Kaunda's rule.

This document discusses implementing a sociocultural approach to teaching English as a second language in Pakistan. It aims to experiment with this innovative approach to see if it is practical and what challenges may arise. An experimental study was conducted with 30 secondary school students where they were taught using sociocultural guidelines for one month. Speaking skills significantly improved when taught this way by learning collaboratively. However, some challenges implementing this approach were identified that need to be addressed for more effective learning. The study suggests language teaching needs reform to better support speaking skill development.

Community empowerment and participation
This document summarizes a training program developed by IWMI to improve community engagement in small-scale irrigation projects. The training aims to address issues like lack of community participation in decision making and poor integration of local knowledge that had led to technical failures and unsustainable water user groups.

Key activities include using PRA methods, case studies, system walks, interviews and having trainees participate in project planning, analysis and design with the community. The training aims to not just build skills but also make project staff work together and view irrigation systems as complex social-ecological systems.

Cultural Sensitivity in a Disadvantaged Neighborhood
Presented by Michelle DePass and Rich Newlands
The North Williams Traffic Safety Project started out with the highest of ideals—a greatly improved, safer transportation corridor with easier interactions between vehicles, bikes and pedestrians. What happened next is a public participation nightmare with, perhaps, a legendary ending. This project provides the perfect scenario for best-case public participation by illustrating how NOT to conduct a planning process in disadvantaged communities, followed by lessons learned about the importance of culturally-sensitive public outreach within the context of rapidly-changing demographics of inner North/NE Portland.
