The document discusses racial issues and tensions in Latin America, with tensions often drawn along white versus black and native lines. It also discusses several Latin American countries, including Venezuela which has abundant oil but lacks social infrastructure, and Mexico which struggles with debt but could merge further with the US. Finally, it suggests Latin America now faces a choice to develop independently or risk falling back into past mistakes, as China and the EU take a renewed interest in the region.Gender and migration pew hispanic center 1

The document summarizes trends in global migration patterns and how the United States is an exception. While the percentage of female migrants has increased globally over the past few decades, in the United States the share of female migrants has actually declined from 53.2% in 1980 to 50.2% in 2005. This is due to an increasing flow of male unauthorized immigrants to the United States, which is more male than the legal immigration flow. The changing gender composition of migrants to the U.S. indicates the unique nature of current migration trends to the country.Who is News? Diversity and decision-making in newsrooms

This document discusses the history of racism in the United States. It describes how racism originated with slavery, as black slaves were brought from Africa to work on farms and in factories. After the Civil War ended slavery, racism continued through segregation and discrimination against black citizens. The civil rights movement of the 1960s fought against racism and discrimination. However, racism has not been fully eliminated, as black Americans still face higher rates of poverty, unemployment, incarceration, and lower levels of education compared to white Americans. Eliminating the economic and social inequalities between races is needed to fully end racism in the U.S.Till divorce do us apart julia long di

This document provides an overview of issues in American gender history including the development of women's citizenship and rights defined by marriage and impacted by public policy and law. It discusses images of American women from colonial times through the 1960s, including colonial housewives, Republican mothers, Victorian wives, flappers, Rosie the Riveter, and suburban housewives. Marriage and divorce are examined, noting how women's citizenship was historically defined by marriage under coverture laws. The document focuses on divorce history and laws in New York, including several divorce cases and how the Catholic Church opposed divorce law reforms. It suggests women had little bargaining power in marriages in the 19th century but that changed in the 1920s.LGBT News, Culture, Opinion and Conversations

This document discusses gender identity among African Americans. It begins by noting that many women and men fought for women's rights and against slavery. Susan B. Anthony was a key leader in the women's movement, advocating for women's suffrage, property rights, labor rights, and the abolition of slavery. While she never married, she was passionate and inspired others through publications and organizations. The document then examines how African American men and women were historically pitted against each other but also bonded together. It notes progress in race relations but calls for continued healing from past harms. The work of Susan B. Anthony and other strong Black female leaders paved the way for advances, though many will remain unknown. Overall progress requires addressing differences whileSouthern Stereotypes

This document discusses stereotypical views of both whites and blacks in the American South from the 1930s to present day. In the early 20th century, poor whites were seen as uneducated farmers and hunters with large families, while blacks were viewed as ignorant, lazy, and only fit for undesirable jobs. Though racial tensions existed, the document notes that with hard work blacks and whites can accomplish things together. Stereotypes of both groups have evolved over time but still persist in certain assumptions about their characteristics.62 America is Mentally Ill.pdf

The document discusses the "epidemic of mental illness" in America, pointing to increasing mass shootings, riots, and crime as symptoms. It argues that American society has increasingly devalued life through the acceptance of abortion, which the author believes has dulled people's aversion to violence and killing. Further, the document claims that Democratic policies aim to cull the population and oppress Americans in order to gain complete power, showing little regard for human life. It presents numerous examples to argue that Democratic leaders are purveyors of death who cultivate lawlessness and sacrifice lives to further their secular, authoritarian agenda.Suicide Information.pptx

1. Native Americans face difficulties in treatment due to historical traumas from European contact that continue to impact them in modern society. These include population losses from disease, violence, and forced relocation from their lands.
2. Stereotypes of Native Americans as either lazy or mystical contribute to a lack of personal identity. Substance abuse issues stemming from the introduction of alcohol by Europeans also persist as a challenge.
3. Cultural practices were forcibly suppressed through boarding schools that sought to "civilize" Native youth, destroying families and culture. Abuse was common in these schools.Guatemal A Large Latin American Country

This document discusses the Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) gang and its origins and impact in Latin America. It began in Los Angeles among Salvadoran immigrants and refugees from the civil war, who formed the gang for protection. As the gang grew violent, clashing with rivals, US anti-gang laws deported many members back to El Salvador and other Central American countries starting in the 1990s and 2000s. This spread the gang's influence and helped it grow significantly in numbers and organization in Latin America, where it has contributed to rising violence. While gangs provide members a sense of identity, the problems caused in Latin America are worsening and require efforts from law enforcement, military, and communities toHomelessness

This document discusses genocide and provides examples of genocide throughout history. It defines genocide as the deliberate killing of a large group of people from a specific ethnicity, race, nationality or religion. The Holocaust is used as a prominent example of genocide where over 11 million Jews and others were killed by Nazi Germany. Genocides often happen during times of crisis and one group is blamed for problems. The ongoing crisis in Darfur, Sudan is discussed as a current example of genocide where over 400,000 people have been killed and millions displaced since 2003.Minorities powerpoint

This document summarizes demographic statistics about racial and ethnic minorities in the United States. It finds that while minorities now make up over half of the largest school districts, on average their incomes, life expectancies, home ownership rates, and other socioeconomic indicators lag behind those of white Americans. For example, the median net worth of white families is over $88,000 compared to just $6,000 for black families and $7,900 for Latino families. Black youth also face disproportionately high rates of incarceration for the same crimes compared to white youth.Oh, the Things You Can Build!

Education has changed since Covid struck. Teachers, students, and everyone inbetween have been required to find online methods for communicating and getting tasks done. One option for educators has been immersing their students in learning situations through virtual world activities. While some teachers are excited by the possibilities, others are overwhelmed by yet another technology being heaped on their already overladen plates. But using virtual worlds and creating the items you might need for lessons there, doesn't need to be intimidating.
This presentation is meant to help teachers and students over some of their perceived hurdles while creating many lessons for teaching idioms. Participants at the conference, or people who would like to review or process the information separately, can work through the step-by-step slides outlining best building practices at their own pace. The goal is to turn a daunting task into an enjoyable one.
Participants who attend the conference in Kitely in OpenSim will also be given a chance to tour Edutopia 1 and see many other teaching ideas via a car rally. The car rally is meant to showcase additional teaching tactics, and the car rally is also an example of another type of lesson teachers could immediately use with their students.

Write up example 1
- 1. Violence in Native American communities is much higher than in non-Native communities. The Native American homicide rate is twice as high as among non- Natives, and Native American suicides are one and a half times higher. Particularly shocking is the fact that in Native American communities it is the young who are more often taking their own lives. The opposite is true in non-Native America where the elderly are the most likely to commit suicide. Therefore, if you are Native, it is much more likely you will be murdered or kill yourself before you reach your twenties.
