[Solved] African Americans Faced Profound

History Discussion Post: What led to the rise of American Imperialism in the 1890s and why did the US go to war against Spain in 1898? What significant changes came out of this war for the US? 

Prof notes: please make sure that you provide specific information and examples to the questions. The best answers to both questions last week were those that provide specific examples of legislation supported by Roosevelt and Wilson or other Progressives (depending on which question you answered).

Progressivism was a response to problems brought on by Industrialization and the movement was led by upper and middle-class professional women and men. There were Democrats, Republicans, and Socialists who supported Progressive reforms and not surprisingly, there were some clear ideological differences but they all supported greater government involvement. As several of you mentioned, there were numerous reforms passed during the first few decades of the 20th Century including the 16th,17th, 18th, and 19th amendments, the Pure Food and Drug Act, Workers Compensation laws, the Mann Act, etc.  The Mann Act focused on stopping the transportation of women across state lines for immoral purposes rather than seeking a more drastic abolition of prostitution. Prostitution was regulated more at a state level, which is why it was (and still is) regulated differently in Nevada than elsewhere. Federal regulation has focused more on public health aspects of prostitution rather than prohibition of it. While the NAACP did emerge in the context of Progressivism, African Americans faced profound racism and discrimination during the Progressive Era. Lynchings, segregation, and disenfranchisement continued to undermine efforts to gain meaningful equality.

In the comparison of Wilson and Roosevelt, it was important to focus on them as presidents and why both were considered Progressives despite the fact that they were members of different parties. Both Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson were Progressive presidents but what made them be identified as Progressives?  Roosevelt, as several of you noted, as a Republican while Wilson was a Democrat. However, they both supported greater government regulation and they both signed a number of Progressive laws into effect (keep in mind that Congress passes laws and then presidents sign them into law unless of course they veto them). The biggest political differences between Roosevelt and Wilson manifested themselves in the 1912 election with the New Nationalism and New Freedom platforms.

Your task for this session is to discuss “Staged Photography,” as explained in the text. Read the “Staged Photography” section on pages 295-298 of the text. Focus your study on the images by Gillian Wearing (Figure 11-21), Bill Gekas (Figure 11-22), and Gregory Crewdson (Figure 11-23).

Choose one of the three photographs listed above, then discuss the use of staging and ‘manipulation’, and its use to reveal the content (not just the subject) of the piece.

Be sure to number (1, 2, 3, 4) and answer all of the four discussion questions below:

 1. Name the photograph, photographer, and date of your selection. What is the subject matter?

2.  Discuss how the use of staging/manipulation is used to reveal the content.  How are you informed about the meaning of the photograph?

3. After study and close observation, what do you suppose has been digitally changed or enhanced in the photograph you selected?

4. Would the photograph have been possible without the use of digital manipulation or staging? Why or why not?

Remember, your participation and response should clearly reflect your reading, understanding of the chapter, and specific content for this session.

Project Two Guidelines and Rubric 

Competency

In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competencies:

  • Describe various diagnoses of psychological disorders
  • Explain the contributions and limitations of various methods of assessment of psychological conditions
  • Compare various treatment approaches

Scenario

With graduation on the near horizon, Jamal is excited about completing his psychology degree. He is anticipating a highlight of his academic journey; the Psychology Department has asked Jamal and a few of his peers to engage in a panel presentation that will spotlight their knowledge on a topic relevant to abnormal psychology. Jamal is honored to have been asked to participate in the presentation and hopes to use this opportunity to add some valuable artifacts to his career ePortfolio.

As Jamal prepares the content of his presentation, he considers the role of research and practice in mental health. Likewise, Jamal considers the various biomedical and psychological approaches to treating psychological disorders, including the ethical factors that impact treatment. In addition, he considers the ways in which social support can promote education and awareness about psychological disorders. Lastly, Jamal considers the many ways in which we can enhance compassion and empathy for people who struggle with psychological disorders and perhaps help to humanize (and normalize) aspects of abnormal behavior.

[Solved] Find Two Chillingly Vivid

PleUnit 5 DB: Convince us of your conflict

Unit 5 DB: Convince us of your conflict

Initial Response: Jackson, Dick, and Atwood brilliantly incorporate the conflict of Man vs. Society, but which one does it better?

1.     In one to two paragraphs, argue which of the Unit 5 authors best portrays the conflict of Person vs. Society and HOW (you might like to do some more research on The Handmaid’s Tale to write about Atwood). This is a great practice for your upcoming Position Paper.  

2.     Share a modern-day piece of literature (new story, article, video, movie, novel, etc.) that supports your response and is a direct connection to the story you choose. Be sure to post the link to your modern piece of literature and explain how it connects to your chosen author/story. 

3.     Finish your post by asking a question of your peers that promotes critical thinking on this subject.

Responses: For your response, you can answer the question that your peers asked in their posts. You can also further discuss your chosen modern-day piece of literature with your peers by further explaining the conflict within it and how it might relate to other conflicts you see in modern-day literature.

Topic One: Literature Resources for this unit:

The readings in this unit focus on the literary device of Conflict. Conflict is the driving force of all good literature. Nowhere does conflict appear more originally and desperately than in Dystopian (relating to a society in which there is an illusion of a perfect/futuristic society) stories. Below, you will find two chillingly vivid classic tales of conflict by Jackson and Dick. 

·         Shirley Jackson’s chilling dystopian story, “The Lottery,” is rife with conflict. As a cautionary tale, “The Lottery” is just as effective in modern times as in 1948, and set the stage for popular literature such as Hunger Games and The Handmaid’s Tale.

o    Jackson, S. (1948). The lottery, The New Yorker. Link to the full text in The New Yorker. 

·         Philip K. Dick authored 121 short stories and 44 novels before he died at the age of 53. Many films are based on his work, such as Blade Runner and Minority Report. His most famous alternate-history novel is a current series on Amazon, titled The Man in the High Castle.

·         When Margaret Atwood authored The Handmaid’s Tale in 1985, she might not have imagined it would have extended popularity for decades. Currently, it is a top-rated series on HBO and the novel is again on the New York Times bestseller list. As with most dystopian novels, it focuses on a society that is changed for what appears to be the betterment of its people.

Supplemental Resources: Conflict as a Literary Device:

Every plot in literature needs to have a conflict; sometimes the protagonist will experience more than one per story. Conflicts can be either internal or external, and it is the conflict that makes the story interesting and dynamic.
