Colorblind' Admissions Proccess in Universities KristopherKeach
This document summarizes a thesis submitted by Kristopher Keach examining the 'colorblind' admissions process in universities. It discusses the legacy of slavery and discrimination against minorities in the US education system. It describes how affirmative action was implemented in the 1940s-1960s to address this, though it faced resistance and was dismantled in California. It argues that a truly colorblind admissions system is impossible, as factors like an applicant's name and address can reveal their race, and implicit biases cannot be avoided. Studies have shown affirmative action remains the most effective way to promote equal access to education following centuries of racial inequalities.

This document discusses why some Christians engage in worldly behavior like twerking and provides biblical perspectives on living as a Christian in the world. It argues that belongingness is a core human need but conformity to worldly ways can pull Christians away from transforming as God intends. The document encourages Christians to stop loving the world, noting that worldly pleasures are temporary but obedience to God leads to eternal life. It offers advice for Christians to cooperate with God's spirit, study the Bible, find accountability, and focus on spiritual nourishment rather than just entertainment.

Appropriate valuation method for Soil Conservation.loknlamsal
This document outlines LOK NATH LAMSAL's presentation on valuing soil conservation. The presentation will include an introduction, conceptual framework, methods of soil valuation, total value of conservation, appropriate valuation techniques, and analysis of different methods. It will discuss how soil degradation in Nepal was recognized, and factors responsible like steep slopes, fragility, and rainfall. Valuing conservation considers private and social worth. Total economic value includes direct use, indirect use, option and existence values. Methods assessed are market-based, production functions, preventative expenditures, damage avoided, replacement costs, and contingent valuation which estimates willingness to pay. No single technique is sufficient due to soil's complex roles, but contingent valuation can consider all functions though results

PRIDE is commemorated every June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in New York City, when patrons and supporters of the Stonewall Inn staged an uprising to resist the police harassment and persecution to which LGBTQ+ Americans were commonly subjected. This uprising marked the beginning of a movement to outlaw discriminatory laws and practices against LGBTQ+ Americans.
This year, I am celebrating PRIDE by sharing bits of our rich history. Every day this month, I will post a series of profiles highlighting LGBTQ+ icons who have made significant contributions to society. Take a moment to learn about these scientists, artists, athletes, activists, business and political leaders whose stories inspire me to live authentically and to continue the fight for equity and justice, every day.

Week 4 Rough Draft
Merrissa Hicks
Walden University
12/23/2019
Introduction
The study of social movement reflects the social issues in different periods have faced. This work will focus on the Abolition Movement and the Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) social movements. Social movements are a result of general public consensus towards dealing with major social issues in the community.
I will discuss the historical background and ideals that supported the development of the Abolition Movement and the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Social Movement. This is intended to show the correlation between their emergence and the key social issues that the community faced.
The Abolition movement
The Abolition movement was jumpstarted with the effort of ending slavery in America. It held that all people are created equal, and hence the practice of slavery was unacceptable. This movement existed in the 19th century when many people started publicly displaying dissatisfaction for the slavery practices in the country. It placed more pressure on the authorities to outlaw slavery (Martos, Wilson & Meyer, 2017). It would allow for increased debate about segregation and discrimination.
Slaved men and women worked on large agricultural farms as maids. Their life was brutal; they were subject to severe punishments and strict racial rules and policies. With time they opposed slavery through daily acts like antislavery movements. The basis of this movement was that all men were created equal and hence, the effort to emancipate slaves (Martos, Wilson & Meyer, (2017).
Abolitionists managed to integrate religion and moral movement, that focused on the acceptance that everyone was equal before the eyes of their creator and later on became political. Antislavery societies were formed by various churches to create awareness of evil effects of slavery (Lysack, 2012). American Colonization Society (founded 1817) was first movement to abolishing slavery but was greatly opposed since it was seen as unfair to send Black Americans from their motherland to Africa.
The American Antislavery Society was founded in 1833 by prominent leaders, such as William Lloyd Garrison David Walker and Frederick Douglass (Black Abolitionist) strongly opposed slavery in their publications (Pepin-Neff & Wynter, 2019). These publications disputed against slavery as anti-social and immoral and repeatedly used illustrations of African -American literatures and other accomplishments to outline that the Africans and their offspring had ability to learn like Americans, if granted freedom.
The abolition movement was politicized. The Native American Party opposed slavery as well immigrants. Thus, other parties like Free Soil and Whigs did so. They merge together in 1856 leading to election of Abraham Lincoln as president in United States (Lysack, 2012).
The abolitionists continued to pressurize the administration of Lincoln to terminate slavery. It to ...
New ProHistory of the Lesbianism in the United Statesjectjscarf
Lesbian history in the United States has long been mischaracterized as mere "romantic friendships" but the acceptance of lesbianism has gradually increased over time. In the late 19th century, some lesbian relationships were openly acknowledged among suffrage supporters. The 1964 Civil Rights Act prohibited gender discrimination and lesbian activists in the 1960s and 70s helped pave the way for greater acceptance of LGBT people. By the early 21st century, more gay and lesbian families felt able to openly identify themselves in the US Census and same-sex marriage was legally recognized in some states.
The document discusses the social and political upheaval in the United States during the 1960s and 1970s. Key events and movements included:
1) The emergence of the New Left consisting of college students inspired by the civil rights movement and seeking social change. Groups like SDS and protests like those over People's Park polarized campuses.
2) The growth of counterculture movements like hippies that rejected mainstream society and embraced liberal views on drugs, sex, and alcohol.
3) The rise of activism for minorities' rights, including the formation of groups like AIM fighting for Native American rights and the occupation of Wounded Knee, and Cesar Chavez organizing farmworkers.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 made discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin illegal. It led to some desegregation of schools and public facilities in the South. However, violence and unrest continued, such as the 1964 murders of three civil rights workers - Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James Chaney - by the KKK in Mississippi. Their deaths highlighted ongoing racial tensions and the need for further progress on civil rights.
We are pleased to announce the re-issue of the booklet, What Democracy Feels Like. The occasion of the re-issue is our announcement of the first annual Paul and Joyce Aicher Leadership in Democracy Award. Paul and Joyce Aicher were the founders of what is now called Everyday Democracy. After Joyce passed away last fall, we wanted to find a way to honor the generosity, caring, and commitment to voice and justice that characterized Paul and Joyce’s lives. This award will acknowledge the work of an individual and/or organization that demonstrates the values on which Everyday Democracy was founded – voice, connection, racial equity, and communities that work for all.
Paul passed away just after this booklet was published in 2002, but the commitment and passion described in these pages continue to guide our work and have touched tens of thousands of people in hundreds of communities.

2. Masked Defiance; LGBT Life Begins
1979
In the late 1970s, a young female Rice student discreetly approached
her professor after class one day and handed him a slip of paper with the
request that he call the phone number written on it. He did as he was asked
and called the number. A young male student answered, appealing to the
professor to serve as the faculty sponsor of the LGBTQ group they were
attempting to form on campus. The students knew that the professor was
not gay, but hoped that he would feel more comfortable being associated
with the organization since all of the previously asked gay faculty members
refused to risk outing themselves. The professor accepted the students’
offer, and the university’s first Gay and Lesbian support group was
recognized in 1979.
In 1983, a photo of the LGBTQ support organization first appeared
in the Campanile. Twenty of the organization’s members were featured
standing in front of Willy’s Statue; eighteen of them wore paper bags over
their heads to preserve their reputation. Following the list of fake names
used to caption the picture were the words “Approximately 10% of Rice
students, faculty and staff.”
In 1986, students used pink triangles, in reference to the symbols that
LGBTQ prisoners in Nazi concentration camps were forced to wear, as
their method of facial obstruction. Rather than using their own names, they
captioned the photograph with the names of historical people thought to be
LGBTQ.
In 1989, members held signs protesting Texas Penal Code 21.06, the
law against Homosexual Conduct. In this yearbook photograph, only one
person hid their face.
In 1993, the first yearbook photograph was taken of the support
group members with real names and no facial obstructions. There were 42
students and four faculty members in the picture.
In 2012, the support group, now known as Queers & Allies, attended
the Campanile’s Picture Yourself event to take their club photograph.
Members were featured holding nothing but their spirit fingers.
Since that day in the late 70s, when Chandler Davidson, the previously
mentioned professor, and Mayor of Houston Annise Parker ’78, the student,
allowed for the founding of the organization, it has taken roughly 14 years
for LGBTQ students to feel comfortable in revealing their identities. Rice is
now at the forefront of the human rights movement, firmly holding a place in
the top queer-friendly campuses in the country.

Macklemore & Ryan
Lewis invite Mayor Annise
Parker on stage at FPSF
Same Love, a song by
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, featuring
Mary Lambert, reached number 11
of the Billboard Hot 100 with over 60
million YouTube views, and number
one in both New Zealand and Australia
as of July. The song, addressing
marriage equality and human
rights, was performed by the artist at
the Annual Houston music festival,
Free Press Summer Fest. Macklemore
has been dubbed one of the most
progressive proponents of gay rights in
hip-hop by multiple media sites. It is no
surprise, then, that his work attracted
the attention of Mayor Annise Parker,
one of the first openly gay mayors.
Mayor Parker personally greeted
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis when they
arrived at the festival grounds, and was
invited to stand on stage with him.
Julia Bleck '13, describes her
experience at the performance:
"Singing that song and bringing out
mayor Annise Parker had the crowd in
an uproar, even in tears. It felt almost
like a political campaign of sorts mixed
with some sort of Woodstock vibes.
I felt so happy to be a part of such a
loving crowd of people all supporting
each other for just that moment."

that the case on Proposition 8
lacked the proper standing. The
Human Rights Campaign released
a statement on their website about
the decisions: “The Supreme Court
victory in United States v. Windsor
striking down the discriminatory
federal Defense of Marriage Act
(DOMA) affirms that all loving
and committed couples who are
married deserve equal legal respect
and treatment from the federal
government.”
The decisions were released
during Houston’s Pride week, just
days before the 35th Annual Houston
Pride Parade, which attracted a
crowd of about 350,000 people. The
week included festivities ranging
from parties, panels, and musical
performances, all made possible by
various public, local, and individual
sponsors. Rice University continued
their tradition of participation by
revamping the rainbow-colored float
sporting a large poster of Rice Alum,
Mayor Annise Parker. Over 40 Rice
students, alumni, staff, faculty and
friends, all dressed in rainbow,
tye-dyed Rice shirts, participated
by riding the float, walking beside
it, or driving the Segways loaned to
the participants for the event. The
Rice Pride Committee, which unites
several lesbian, gay, bisexual and
transgender campus organizations,
organized the university’s parade
entry with support from the Gay and
Lesbian Alumni Association, Rice
Queers and Allies, the Rice Graduate
Student Association and the Office
of University Relations in Public
Affairs.

"I think it's really exciting that
the section of DOMA preventing same
sex married couples from receiving
federal benefits has been declared
unconstitutional! Q&A is proud of our
supreme court's decisions on both DOMA
and prop 8. The fight is not over, however,
because now each state must allow all of
its citizens equal rights. I hope Owls will
continue to register to vote in Houston
because their votes for mayor, governor,
etc. make a huge difference on these
issues. I also hope people will remember
that marriage equality isn't the end goal:
it's just one facet of the equal rights we all
deserve. Q&A will keep fighting until all
people, LGBT or not, have equal access to
housing, jobs, education, federal benefits
and equal protection against violence and
discrimination."
While this year has seen many
victories for social progress in
equality, there is still much more
to be checked off of the human
rights agenda. Legislation like the
Employment Non-Discrimination
Act is being pushed by the Human
Rights Campaign to protect LGBT
people from being fired or evicted
just because of who they are. A
multitude of social equality activist
groups, pride celebrations, and
organizations exist and continue
to grow. It is clear that until full
equality is achieved for all humans,
LGBT or not, there is still a fight
worth fighting.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’s song
for human rights reached number
11 in the charts. Marriage equality
was achieved in Maine, Washington,
California, Delaware, Rhode

putting the total at 13 states, with
seven others allowing domestic

between August 2012 and July 2013.
The fight for marriage equality
