Download or read book We're Not All Equal written by Donald Evchich and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2022-06-17 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We're Not All Equal: Because God Says So By: Donald Evchich We’re Not All Equal: Because God Says So has been written by the infilling of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to open the eyes and ears of those Christians who have been lulled to sleep by the World’s Love. We are told in the Word if you love that way, you become an enemy of God instead of Fear of God, which is the beginning of all Knowledge. Many many Christians have made God in their minds and heart a Sugar Daddy, which He is definitely not. He is, without a doubt, the most Loving God and Father we will ever know. But, to God, obedience is worth more than anything we can sacrifice.
Book Synopsis Still Not Equal by : M. Christopher Brown
Download or read book Still Not Equal written by M. Christopher Brown and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Still Not Equal: Expanding Educational Opportunity in Society addresses the successes and failures of Brown v. Board of Education and the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as well as the continuing challenge of expanding educational opportunity in the United States and across the Black diaspora. The educational, political, and social influence resulting from Brown, the Civil Rights Act, and their progeny have shaped the dynamics of the collective educational and social experiences of people of color. Notwithstanding, the obstacles, barriers, and enablers of educational, occupational, and economic status outcomes impact the formation and interpretation of public policy, specifically, and public perception, generally, about racialized notions of schooling and learning. The pursuit of educational access, attendance, and attainment is intertwined with the implications of academic research and public policy to improve local practices in school settings. Inasmuch as a diverse research agenda, priorities, and activities become situated to critically address status and attainment outcomes in education from preschool through adulthood for African Americans in the United States and abroad, the resulting complexities in education and other settings will continue to behave in ways that cross racial lines.

Book excerpt: “A fitting eulogy to the master of wacky words and even wackier tales . . . Salmon leaves no doubt as to Adams’s lasting legacy.”—Entertainment Weekly With an introduction to the introduction by Terry Jones Douglas Adams changed the face of science fiction with his cosmically comic novel The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and its classic sequels.

Though Douglas Adams is gone, he’s left us something very special to remember him by. Without a doubt. “Worth reading and even cherishing, if only because it’s the last we’ll hear from the master of comic science fiction.”—The Star-Ledger

Book Synopsis White But Not Equal by : Ignacio M. García
Download or read book White But Not Equal written by Ignacio M. García and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Check out "A Class Apart" - the new PBS American Experience documentary that explores this historic case! In 1952 in Edna, Texas, Pete Hernández, a twenty-one-year-old cotton picker, got into a fight with several men and was dragged from a tavern, robbed, and beaten. Upon reaching his home he collected his .22-caliber rifle, walked two miles back to the tavern, and shot one of the assailants. With forty eyewitnesses and a confession, the case appeared to be open and shut. Yet Hernández v. Texas turned into one of the nation’s most groundbreaking Supreme Court cases. Ignacio García’s White But Not Equal explores this historic but mostly forgotten case, which became the first to recognize discrimination against Mexican Americans. Led by three dedicated Mexican American lawyers, the case argued for recognition of Mexican Americans under the 14th Amendment as a “class apart.” Despite a distinct history and culture, Mexican Americans were considered white by law during this period, yet in reality they were subjected to prejudice and discrimination. This was reflected in Hernández’s trial, in which none of the selected jurors were Mexican American. The concept of Latino identity began to shift as the demand for inclusion in the political and judicial system began. García places the Hernández v. Texas case within a historical perspective and examines the changing Anglo-Mexican relationship. More than just a legal discussion, this book looks at the whole case from start to finish and examines all the major participants, placing the story within the larger issue of the fight for Mexican American civil rights.
Book Synopsis In All Fairness by : Richard A. Epstein
Download or read book In All Fairness written by Richard A. Epstein and published by Independent Institute. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing concern about inequality has led to proposals to remake American society according to ill-conceived and coercive "egalitarian" values that are fundamentally unfair. This unique book reveals the modern romance with equality as a destructive flirtation. The elites who advocate such notions claim they champion the poor—but more often than not the nostrums of this managerial class undermine, rather than advance, mass prosperity and human well-being. The authors of In All Fairness challenge all of the prevailing egalitarian ideas, including the claim that the country is riven by inequality in the first place. After all, our economy thrives with a division of labor that allows individuals who are unequal in interests and talents to pursue their own unique goals. Looked at in this way, equality is far more widespread than overheated rhetoric might lead one to expect—as factual data show. But it is an equality of a particularly valuable type—one arrived at, not by top-down attempts to impose economic uniformity, but by our respecting inviolable rules of fair play and the dignity of each person, a dignity that requires everyone to respect the voluntary transactions of others. This approach holds equity, liberty, diversity, and prosperity together. Would we want it any other way in America and anywhere around the world? The authors draw on economics, philosophy, religion, law, political science, and history to provide answers to a perennial question that especially agitates the American public today: Can the coercive powers of the state be used to achieve a kind of arithmetic equality? The authors, each in their own way, make a strong case that they should not be used in this fashion. Love inequality or loathe it, In All Fairness is full of key insights about the connections among fairness, liberty, equality and the quest for human dignity. You won't think about wealth and poverty, equality and inequality, in the same way ever again.
Book Synopsis We Are Not Yet Equal by : Carol Anderson
Download or read book We Are Not Yet Equal written by Carol Anderson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This young adult adaptation of the New York Times bestselling White Rage is essential antiracist reading for teens. An NAACP Image Award finalist A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year A NYPL Best Book for Teens History texts often teach that the United States has made a straight line of progress toward Black equality. The reality is more complex: milestones like the end of slavery, school integration, and equal voting rights have all been met with racist legal and political maneuverings meant to limit that progress. We Are Not Yet Equal examines five of these moments: The end of the Civil War and Reconstruction was greeted with Jim Crow laws; the promise of new opportunities in the North during the Great Migration was limited when blacks were physically blocked from moving away from the South; the Supreme Court's landmark 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision was met with the shutting down of public schools throughout the South; the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965 led to laws that disenfranchised millions of African American voters and a War on Drugs that disproportionally targeted blacks; and the election of President Obama led to an outburst of violence including the death of Black teen Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri as well as the election of Donald Trump. Including photographs and archival imagery and extra context, backmatter, and resources specifically for teens, this book provides essential history to help work for an equal future.

Book Synopsis All Teams are Not Created Equal by : Lyman Ketchum
Download or read book All Teams are Not Created Equal written by Lyman Ketchum and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 1992-03-09 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Absenteeism, lack of commitment, lack of initiative, use of drugs and alcohol leading to decreased productivity, poor quality of products and services, and compromised safety of workers and the public; these problems are serious and particularly dangerous to organizations operating in the unforgiving world of high technology, dangerous substances, and environmental risks. How can managers improve productivity and work performance against these odds? Lyman Ketchum, known worldwide for his innovative work design of the General Foods plant in Topeka, Kansas, and Eric Trist, founder member and later chairman of the renowned Tavistock Institute, bring their experience and insight to bear on this issue as they examine organizational change and ways that managers can improve productivity and work performance. The authors diagnose the current problems facing business, then go on to identify the aspects of "good work": team structuring, employee empowerment, open communications, and active innovation. Ketchum and Trist then propose their "center out" model for organizational change, and conclude with a wealth of case studies from their own experiences.
Book Synopsis "All Men are Created Equal" by : William Wolff Wattenberg
Download or read book "All Men are Created Equal" written by William Wolff Wattenberg and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to this volume-a professor of politics, an associate justice of the United States Supreme Court, a lawyer-diplomat, and a professional educator-address themselves to the interrelated questions: What do we believe about equality? What are the consequences of these beliefs? John P. Roche, chairman of the department of politics, Brandeis University, sketches and documents the transformation of the American majority's beliefs about equality. In tracing the past century's exclusion of the Negro from the political community, he notes that our forefathers did not build a pluralistic society around the principles of liberty and equality but that men achieved equality as a function of membership in the body politic-a privilege which the majority has always accorded on its own terms. Although the majority affirmed all men to be created equal, it refused to consider the Negro as a "man" among "men." He finds today's American majority determined to give "full coverage to the Declaration of Independence." Discussing equality before the law, William O. Douglas finds obvious the need to defend individual differences in a world besieged by general leveling influences and in an era where having no view at all seems better to many than having a controversial one. To cope with the problems of the twenty-first century, he writes, we shall need wonder, reverence, and awe for man's ingenuity along with sympathy and forgiveness for his shortcomings. He emphasizes the need for new history and social studies textbooks if we are to educate oncoming generations in the exciting challenges of our multiracial nation and world. Adolf A. Berle, diplomat, lawyer, and a "brain truster" of the Roosevelt administration, places in perspective recent and proposed federal efforts to set a floor under deprivation. For better or worse, he concludes, the American economy is a vast collective enterprise which must make its children as nearly equal as possible in opportunities for education and for jobs. It cannot permit even "justified" misery, and poverty below a level which outrages an affluent civilization. Underlying William W. Wattenberg's essay is the theme that any serious effort to counteract inequities in our present system of opportunities must come to grips with the fact that many people, young and old, react adversely to opportunities. Tackling the question of whether or not it is possible to alter the self-hampering obstructions which many people develop within themselves, he notes that self concepts form very early in life, that where a young person has formed a poor self-concept, his response to success with a lifting of aspirations is likely to be temporary, and that among young persons living in impoverished areas or belonging to minorities suffering discrimination, there is almost overwhelming social reinforcement for poor self-concepts. He finds the still unsolved problem to be not merely one of inducing the child to have a better concept of himself, but one of finding a way to make the change endure. Included in the book is a symposium entitled "Psychological Issues with Respect to Race Relations." The meeting served as a substitute program when the original speaker was unable to attend or to submit a manuscript on the topic. Participants in the symposium were Juanita Collier, professor, educational psychology; Lloyd Allen Cook, professor emeritus of educational sociology; George Henderson, assistant director, Delinquency Control Training Center; Ross Stagner, chairman, department of psychology; and Henry Watts, associate professor of social psychology; all of Wayne State University.

Book Synopsis Unequal Treatment by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Unequal Treatment written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-02-06 with total page 781 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racial and ethnic disparities in health care are known to reflect access to care and other issues that arise from differing socioeconomic conditions. There is, however, increasing evidence that even after such differences are accounted for, race and ethnicity remain significant predictors of the quality of health care received. In Unequal Treatment, a panel of experts documents this evidence and explores how persons of color experience the health care environment. The book examines how disparities in treatment may arise in health care systems and looks at aspects of the clinical encounter that may contribute to such disparities. Patients' and providers' attitudes, expectations, and behavior are analyzed. How to intervene? Unequal Treatment offers recommendations for improvements in medical care financing, allocation of care, availability of language translation, community-based care, and other arenas. The committee highlights the potential of cross-cultural education to improve provider-patient communication and offers a detailed look at how to integrate cross-cultural learning within the health professions. The book concludes with recommendations for data collection and research initiatives. Unequal Treatment will be vitally important to health care policymakers, administrators, providers, educators, and students as well as advocates for people of color.

With vivid, vibrant art and a resounding message of tolerance conveyed with a sweet and playful rhyme, this book is a celebration of the many different ways to be, all of which are good, welcome, and equal.
