The word stereotype originally referred to a method used by printers to produce duplicate pages of text. This usage still rings true. When we stereotype, we gloss over individual differences and assume that every member of a group is a "duplicate." These assumptions are learned, and they can be changed." (Ellis, 2015). Our text further states, "A stereotype is an assumption that all members of a group are the same. Stereotypes ignore the differences among people." (Ellis, 2015). To discover how stereotypes can enter your mind, take a moment to do a short thinking experiment. List the first words that come to mind when you see or hear the following terms. Write quickly and do not stop to think about your responses. Musician Eskimo Homeless people Mathematicians Football players Computer programmers Let's reflect and discuss: Reflect on your responses. Do you see any evidence of stereotypes? Explain and discuss your results. Based on your results of this exercise how can we use critical thinking to help embrace diversity and overcome stereotyping? How might these concepts be applied here in class or to the workplace? References Ellis, D. (2015). Becoming a master student (15 th ed). Stamford, CT: Cengage Learning. .

The United States’ foreign policy until the end of the nineteenth century was largely focused on isolationism. Over the years, with American involvement in World War I, World War II, and the Cold War, the American footprint in international affairs expanded, but there was still a general policy of deterrence. However, after 9/11 President Bush shifted American foreign policy to focus on preventive war, meaning that the United States would take a much more proactive approach to attacking others before they were able to attack the United States. President Obama has now shifted that general posture back towards a more restrained approach that relies more on diplomacy and economic sanctions than aggressive military action. -Consider the types of threats America now faces from both nation-states and increasingly non-state actors like ISIS. -Find one news article (citing when appropriate) that discusses a recent foreign policy issue and the United States’ response (like recent terror attacks abroad). and 1) explain the general foreign policy issues 2) what the United States’ response was (did the U.S. choose to act or not and in what manner) and 3) whether or not this is in line with a more restrained approach or is more in line with a more aggressive approach. Why? Then discuss what you think more broadly. In general, what foreign policy approach do you think the United States should take? Why? The paper should be three pages long (no more than four pages), double-spaced, typed with 12 pt. font and normal margins, and include a bibliography. .

The United States is experiencing disruptive politics, as promised by the Republican Party and President Donald Trump. The Republican Party possesses comfortable majorities in the US House (241/194) and US Senate (52/48), the presidency, a majority of US Supreme Court judges, and 32 state legislatures. With this strong mandate for change offered by the electorate in 2016, Republicans seek to reduce or eliminate tax, regulatory, health care, environmental policies; build a wall along the southern border, "drain the swamp" of lobbyists and insider interests, and more to fulfill campaign promises. Mr. Trump has brought to the presidency unconventional ideas about governing and the role of government in society. Having registered as both Democrat and Republican at different points in his life, his leadership style has not won over all congressional Republicans. Additionally, with an administration mired in an assortment of controversies surrounding Russian interference in the 2016 elections, the Republican agenda has not moved forward as much as many in the party would like. The Democrats, roundly trounced in the elections (save for the nearly 3 million more popular votes Hillary Clinton won), are playing the role of “loyal opposition” by challenging the new administration, something the Republicans did so well during the Obama years. With political partisanship at record levels—meaning little to no inter-party compromises on issues—stalemate seems to be an apt description of politics in Washington, DC these days. But isn't some degree of gridlock precisely what the separation of powers with checks and balances promotes? Even when one political party controls the branches of government, institutional limitations on the exercise of power are built into the political system. This was done at the founding of the nation in order to 1) protect wealth, and 2) promote liberty for freemen. The revolution that gave rise to the United States was not a social transforming event; rather, its focus was on establishing a new political order. The new political system created by the Constitution allows for slow, incremental, deliberative change through mechanisms that are more likely to thwart than to embrace change. This may have been an adequate response the post-Revolutionary War environment they found themselves in at the end of the 18th Century, but can it survive the rapid changes upon us today? Scholars see several disturbing trends in American government on the left and the right that contribute to the disruptions we observe today: the unprecedented use of social media by the president, his appointees, and members of Congress; gerrymandered election districts that produce overly partisan candidates; nearly unfettered money in campaigns; and elected officials who care more for their reelection than the public good. Much of what ails politics is the relatively low level of political participation (roughly 60% in 2016). Political mandates for change in publ.
