A study in which the rat social discrimination test was refined is described. This test measures social memory by using, in general, juvenile rats as stimulus animals. Rats are offered a first juvenile to investigate (learning trial), and after a specified interval, the rats are offered the same rat and a second juvenile rat to investigate again (retrieval trial). When the rats sniff the second juvenile in the retrieval trial more than the first, social memory for the first juvenile is said to be present. This test is mainly based on scents from the juvenile. Attempts were made to refine the test to reduce the number of animals used, to enhance the scope of the test, and to improve its validity. Firstly, the stimulus animals were replaced by the scent of juveniles, in the form of cups filled with sawdust taken from cages of juvenile rats. Similar results to those in the original test were obtained when using these scents. Furthermore, male and female scents were tested, and showed the same ...

article{96f15cd2-b0ce-47da-ad2d-d5235b1cec20, abstract = {Intersectionality theory can contribute to epidemiology and public health by furthering understanding of power dynamics driving production of health disparities, and increasing knowledge about heterogeneities within, and overlap between, social categories. Drawing on McCall, we relate the first of these potential contributions to categorical intersectionality and the second to anti-categorical intersectionality. Both approaches are used in study of risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD), based on register data on 3.6 million adults residing in Sweden by 2010, followed for three years. Categorical intersectionality is here coupled with between-group differences in average risk calculation, as we use intersectional categorizations while estimating odds ratios through logistic regressions. The anti-categorical approach is operationalized through measurement of discriminatory accuracy (DA), i.e., capacity to accurately categorize individuals ...
In defining activism, I struggled with the enticing alternative choice that activism would be restricted to left-wing activism whereas ring-wing activists would be termed militant right-wingers. This would be consistent with most of mediascape usage of the term activism, including the term activist judge. In the mainstream media, the term activist has a negative connotation and is usually reserved for left-wing activists. Right-wing activism is downplayed or is termed extremism rather than activism. The implication is that it is an extreme of legitimate aspirations whereas activism, like radicalism and anarchism, are incorrectly equated with chaos and destruction. Most activists are left-wing activists because present social structures are more in line with right-wing ideology and because ring-wingers are more easily controlled by fear and can more easily be made to fight other groups rather than the power structure. Fear and perceived danger cause one to want to be protected and this often ...
Black nurses throughout Miami-Dade County have declared a public health crisis here. And they say the demographic most at risk from gun violence are young African-American teenagers.
In addition to these health risks, overweight children tend to go through puberty earlier. There are also social consequences of being an overweight child which can lead to low self-esteem and a decreased quality of life. Overweight children and adolescents are often targets of early social discrimination. Some research indicates that the psychological stress of social labeling can cause low self-esteem which, in turn, can effect academic and social functioning which may continue into adulthood.. ...

Womens formal rights to education and employment have been restored, and in some areas women are once again participating in public life. They accounted for about 16 percent of the candidates in the 2010 parliamentary elections, and roughly 41 percent of registered voters were women; 69 female parliamentarians were elected. There were two women among the 41 candidates for the 2009 presidential election, but on the whole female participation was limited by threats, harassment, and social restrictions on traveling alone and appearing in public. Another major setback to womens rights came with the passage in 2009 of legislation that derogated many constitutional rights for women belonging to the Shiite Muslim minority, leaving questions of inheritance, marriage, and personal freedoms to be determined by conservative Shiite religious authorities. Social discrimination and domestic violence remain pervasive, with domestic violence often going unreported because of social acceptance of the practice. ...
INTRODUCTION. Obesity is considered a global epidemic, and its prevalence among children and adolescents has been on the rise in the last decades in both developed and developing countries, with substantial negative impact on public health. In addition to its association with risk factors for cardiovascular, respiratory, and metabolic disease, obesity in children and adolescents also contributes to low self-esteem and social discrimination, leading to emotional complications.4,15 Moreover, child obesity is also a predictive factor for obesity in adult age.17. Considering the difficulty of treating child and adolescent obesity and the high rate of failure associated with such treatment, it is essential to identify effective strategies preferably simple and without side effects for the prevention of obesity among this population. In this context, breastfeeding emerges as a potential strategy for the prevention of child obesity, the protective effect of which is acknowledged by the World Health ...
A new report finds economic and social discrimination against women is costing Africa more than $100 billion a year. The U.N.

The report finds African women across the board are denied the same kind of economic, social and political opportunities men enjoy.
In the HAART era, HIV infected children can live longer and will grow up to become teenagers. However, some may develop psychosocial problems because they have lost family members, experienced poverty, social discrimination etc. Being a normal teenager is tough and is the most complex period of his/her life. This is the period when most teenagers will find their identity and reasons for living. Therefore it is believed that interventions may help HIV-infected teenagers better deal with life. For this study, logotherapy, a therapy that will help a person to discover his/her purpose in life, live meaningful life, and attain self-esteem was used. The success of the intervention was evaluated by using The Purpose in Life Test ...

Know thyself. As indicated, self-awareness is the first step required to facilitate use of an intersectional practice lens. Carroll (2009) noted that awareness has four components: (a) awareness of self and ones own personal values and beliefs; (b) awareness of others and their multiple identities; (c) awareness of systemic issues such as privilege; and (d) awareness of the implications that professional decisions have on students today, tomorrow, and in the future. In terms of intersectionality, school psychologists should develop awareness of their own intersecting identities and how these identities may have privileged or oppressed them in their personal and professional lives. This is important because school psychologists who are not aware of their own intersecting identities and how those identities shape how they experience the world may have difficulty understanding how diverse students identities can influence their educational and social experiences and outcomes. One activity that ...

From Fray Bernardino de Sahagún, Florentine Codex, Book 12, Chapter 35 (Mexica). Here it is told how once again the Mexicas took captives--according to the count of the Spaniards, there were fifty-three, as well as many Tlaxcalans and people of Tetzcoco, Chalco, and Xochimilco--and how they sacrificed them before their former gods.. At this point [after a long siege of Tenochtitán], the Mexica warriors threw themselves [into the open] and chased [the Spaniards]; they ambushed them from the passageways, and when the Spaniards saw it [they believed that the Mexicas] seemed drunk. [The Mexicas] then took captives. Many Tlaxcalans, and people of Acolhuacan, Chalco, Xochimilco, etc., were taken. A great many were captured and killed. They forced the Spaniards and all the others to go right into the water.. And the road became very slippery; one could no longer walk on it, but would slip and slide. And the captives were dragged along the trails.. [The chapter then mentions how the Mexicas and their ...

That was when the whites were heap big Massa and black women were poor, defense slave women who they could order about. These are probably poor, uneducated white trash scum who are broke and feeling powerless in the world. They can stand the fact that even some black people are educated, have careers and are above them in status. They can no longer whip or push blacks around any longer to feel superior. So they try to humiliate and make a professional black person that is far above them feel inferior. Now I am not saying that an upper-class educated, well off white couple cant be racist either but they would handle their wishes in the handling of their child with more decorum. A more elitist husband would have arranged for his wife to have their baby in the hospital to ensure everything went well then that day or night whisked his wife and child home or to a private facility with hired private nurses of his choosing to take care of his baby and wife around the clock. They wouldnt have went to ...

Activism is similar to advocacy but where it differs is really the heart of activism. Activism usually involves more action that is direct in addressing issues, in a community… for example. Activism is often done by people from within the effected community whereas advocacy is done both by people from within and without the effected communities. Activism can be seen as one isolated action( a protest for example), a lifestyle choice (riding a bike) or a commitment (an organization or coalition). (MORE) ...
Divides between wealthy metropoles and lagging or declining regions have been blamed in many countries for polarisation in politics and in particular a lurch to the far right. OECD member countries are not the only ones to have an urban-rural divide. Take China, where income inequality has surged in recent years, with income per capita being three times higher in urban than in rural areas in 2012. One explanation for this large gap is Chinas hukou system, which restricts the mobility of workers living in poor rural areas to move to more productive urban regions..

Reconnecting with Social Activism: Womens Studies as an Intellectual Endeavor Reconnecting with Social Activism: Womens Studies as an Intellectual Endeavor. The development of womens studies programs, and the need to reorient those programs toward activism, is the focus of Ellen Messer-Davidows book, Disciplining Feminism: From Social Activism to Academic Discourse. Messer-Davidow, a professor of English, centers her argument around a key question about the development of the field of womens studies in institutions: how did it happen that a bold venture launched thirty years ago to transform academic and social institutions was itself transformed by them? (p. 1). Her position is that womens studies has become a part of the institutional system, largely engaged in intellectual scholarship too removed from its activist components. The point of her book, she writes in her introduction, is to determine what deflected our academic initiatives and speculate on how we might redirect them now ...

Cohens argument equates conservative criticism of judicial activism with criticism of striking down laws enacted by elected officials. That may be Cohens view, but it is not shared by the vast majority of conservative jurists and legal scholars. For decades, legal conservatives have criticized the Court for failing to strike down what they see as unconstitutional laws, particularly in the areas of federalism, property rights and (more recently) free speech. Most conservative (and even more so libertarian) jurists would agree that failure to strike down unconstitutional laws is no less a departure from the proper judicial role than judicial overruling of laws that the Constitution permits. A few judicial conservatives (such as Robert Bork and University of Texas lawprof Lino Graglia) have called for the virtual abolition of judicial review; so have a few liberals, such as Harvard professor Mark Tushnet, and Stanfords Larry Kramer. But such views are very much in the minority among ...

N2 - A growing number of concerned individuals throughout the world, including people with disabilities, their parents, and educators, are advocating that students with disabilities be educated in the mainstream of neighborhood classrooms and schools. However, some disability-rights advocates believe that if people with disabilities are to have a well-developed sense of identity as adults, they need to have had opportunities in their school years to associate with other people (both children and adults) having similar characteristics and interests.

The journal Mobilization seeks contributions for a special issue on intersectionality and social movements, guest edited by Zakiya Luna (University of California, Santa Barbara), Sujatha Jesudason (The New School) and Mimi Kim (California State University, Long Beach). Mobilization will publish this issue in 2020. An increasing number of scholars are foregrounding the importance of understanding how identities and political structures co-constitute each other. In her work, Crenshaw (1991) outlines the necessity of understanding the different manifestations of intersectionality - structural, political, and representational. As social movement studies makes a slow turn towards intersectionality, there are many works to build on that offer insights into the many iterations, practices, and attempts to dointersectionality at the level of social movements and movement research. Some authors explore how coalitions themselves offer models of political intersectionality on the ground (Cole 2008, Roberts ...

Social media activism has its perks, from resource-sharing to connecting with other like-minded individuals, but, somewhat paradoxically, its overwhelmingly self-serving. Personal branding and the representation of activism as some kind of flawless, glamorous activity feed into these presentations of an idealized self. These social media activists arent inherently bad, however; their platforms clearly have immense possibility. But rather than showing up to a march simply for a good Instagram post, they should be just as happy to show up without taking a photo. Activism needs to be grounded in real-life work, intertwining advocacy into our lives rather than our profiles.. ...

The experience of gender-based violence, and the internalised shame and self-blame that so often accompanies it, hinders the full emancipation of women and lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgendered (LGBT) members of society. This chapter examines CSOs currently working toward ending street harassment. Technological advances have created innovative options for todays CSOs to unite in unprecedented ways. Modern activism will be highlighted through a case study of Hollaback!, an international network of unified activists who simultaneously work locally and globally to fight street harassment. Research and academic discussion about street harassment and the culture that sustains it have lagged far behind global anti-street harassment activism. Street harassment activists emphasize shifting cultural perspective to a perpetrator-focused, survivor-centred approach that supports survivors. The chapter concludes with an analysis of how the internet has provided organizations and activists the capacity to embrace

AbeBooks.com: A Faded Legacy: Amy Brown Lyman and Mormon Women s Activism, 1872-1959 (Hardback): Language: English . Brand New Book. Amy Brown Lyman was a leader once admired for her dynamic personality, her inspiring public addresses, and for her remarkable vision of what Mormon women in the Relief Society could achieve. Yet today her name is barely known. This volume introduces her to a new generation, showing how the accomplishments of Lyman and her peers benefitted subsequent generations. Dave Hall examines the roots and trajectory of Mormon women s activism. Lyman entered public life at a time when the practice of polygamy was ending and Mormonism was assimilating mainstream trends. The book recounts her involvement in the Relief Society, the Mormon women s charity group that she led for many years and sought to transform into a force for social welfare. Lyman s later life, after she resigned from the Relief Society amidst personal tragedy, offers insight into the reasons Mormon women abandoned an
About the author: There is an art to every practice, activism included. Its what distinguishes the innovative from the routine, the elegant from the mundane. One thing that can help the art of activism is applying an artistic aesthetic tactically, strategically, and organizationally. The practice of artistic activism has only accelerated in recent times, as savvy organizers learn to use the increasingly mediated political terrain of signs and symbols, stories and spectacles to their advantage. From Jesus parables to the Tea Partys protests, working artfully makes activism effective. Until now there has not been a singular space to share, discuss and analyze tactics and strategies of artistic activism. There has not been a place where researchers across a range of disciplines can gather to share their investigations and their challenges, a place where skilled practitioners in artistic activism can share their expertise and cultivate new tactics through cross-disciplinary collaboration. The ...
NFL player representatives and league officials reached an agreement Wednesday night for the league to provide financial support to players community-activism endeavors, according to a person familiar with the deliberations.. The tentative agreement does not directly address the ongoing protests by NFL players during the national anthem, multiple people familiar close to the situation said earlier in the evening.. Owners have been hopeful that an agreement with the players on activism would lead all players to voluntarily stand for the anthem. But divisions on the players side of the issue that became evident earlier Wednesday potentially could lead to the protests continuing even if the deal on activism is in place.. The tentative agreement is subject to final approval by the NFL owners. The owners are scheduled to meet in December in Dallas but might not take up the issue until the annual league meeting in March.. (c) 2017, The Washington Post · Mark Maske. {Matzav.com}. ...

By which I mean that it is not inherently or always feminist. Unlike other posts, I think I can keep this point short:. If intersectionality is an examination of how two experiences/identities interact, then when neither of those experiences/identities is woman and/or female, it is difficult to see how one might guarantee that the examination is feminist in any meaningful way. Remembering that intersectionality is not only the examination of marginalized experiences and identities, we could read a meaningful examination of any of the following without encountering feminism per se:. Black and Christian. Jewish and immigrant. Disabled and heterosexual. Asexual and queer. As I have explained elsewhere, intersectionality was born of Critical Legal Theory, which discipline has its origins in anti-racism, not feminism. Although the originator of the term, metaphor, and theory (Kimberlé Crenshaw) did so while examining legal cases of specific import to Black women and thus is as feminist in its birth ...

You cant stop the power of the youth, cause the power of the youth wont stop. -Shawn Ginwright and Julio Cammarota Youth activism takes place when youth take deliberate, strategic and powerful action to draw attention to issues that matter to them [and] which benefit their communities, thus bringing about social change (https://freechild.org/strategies/). The issues might be local, such as ending zero-tolerance disciplinary policies or providing lead-free drinking water in their schools; national, such as supporting DREAMers or advocating for mental health care for teens who are experiencing homelessness; or international, such as expanding access to education for girls or ending ethnic cleansing. The actions might range from fundraising, to launching a community action or social media campaign, to speaking to national or international leaders. ...

Tuberculosis (TB) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections are the deadliest chronic infections globally. Although each is deadly alone, they are deadlier together, with TB causing one-quarter of AIDS-related deaths and HIV infecting at least 15% of patients with TB worldwide. Historically, the 2 diseases were treated through specific, vertical programs. Strong activism and massive scientific investment have boosted the global response to AIDS, whereas TB has suffered from weak advocacy and anemic research funding. However, since 2004, there has been increasing collaboration and convergence between programs to control the 2 diseases, driven by the recognition that program cooperation leads to synergistic gains in strengthening responses to the 2 diseases and to health systems in general. Progress to date is incomplete, however, and countries must rededicate themselves to scaling up prevention and treatment programs for TB and HIV infection toward universal access, while pursuing ...

How do we explain not just the survival of Indian people in the United States against very long odds but their growing visibility and political power at the opening of the twenty-first century? Within this one story of indigenous persistence are many stories of local, regional, national, and international activism that require a nuanced understanding of what it means to be an activist or to act in politically purposeful ways. Even the nearly universal demand for sovereignty encompasses multiple definitions that derive from factors both external and internal to Indian communities. Struggles over the form and membership of tribal governments, fishing rights, dances, casinos, language revitalization, and government recognition constitute arenas in which Indians and their non-Indian allies ensure the survival of tribal community and sovereignty. Whether contesting termination locally, demanding reparations for stolen lands in the federal courts, or placing their case for decolonization in a global context,

The presentation of most educational data tends to obscure details, in part, because of the systemic ways educational systems have historically collected and presented data. In other words, PUSD, like much of CA, needs to retool its data practices.. In a recent Pleasanton Weekly article, Nicole Anderson (a Pleasanton Unified School District consultant hired to look at unconscious bias and systemic racism in PUSD) says its important to recognize the historical context of public education, which wasnt originally intended to educate women or girls, poor people or minorities…When you fast forward to where we are in 2021, some of our policies and practices have a lot of mirroring to the past. Andersons comments echo those of the PUSD School Board, which has become increasingly concerned with implicit bias, unconscious bias, and systemic racism in the district, authorizing $248,000 to Andersons consulting firm.. Andersons and PUSDs historical overview conflicts with the contemporary data of ...
Joseph Blenkinsopp provides a new commentary on Genesis 1-11, the so-called Primeval History in which the account of creation is given. Blenkinsopp works with the conviction that, from a biblical point of view, creation cannot be restricted to a single event, nor to two versions of an event (as depicted in Genesis 1-3) but, rather, must take in the whole period of creation arranged in the sequence: creation - uncreation - recreation (as can be derived from Genesis 1-11). Through the course of the commentary, presented in continuous discussion rather than in a rigid verse-by-verse form, Blenkinsopp takes into account pre-modern interpretations of the texts, especially in the Jewish interpretative tradition, as well as modern, historical-critical interpretations. Blenkinsopp works from the perspective of acknowledging the texts literary integrity as an authored work, rather than focusing simply on the its background in various sources (whilst of course paying due attention to those sources).

Looking for a Group that expands on traditional definitions of feminism? We are seeking people interested in intersectionality -- the concept often used in critical theories to describe the ways in which oppressive institutions (racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, xenophobia, classism, etc.) are interconnected and cannot be examined separately from one another. Intersectionality was developed as part of post-second wave feminist philosophy, including third wave feminism, in an effort to bring a wider and more inclusive focus to Feminism. We want to offer a safe haven that allows issues surrounding race, gender, orientation and class be the forefront of feminist discussion ...
