Chapter I

The stereotypes and micro-aggressions suffered by a Black woman in a toxic workplace leads to deleterious effects. The effects reported here include oppression, shame, and isolation. Internalizing these feelings of isolation systematically caused the body, mind, and spirit to suffer physiologically and psychologically. The overall strategy is termed disconnection; this concept is reinforced by the “power over” (Jordan, 2010) by a dominant group who wantonly exercise shame and isolation to discourage mutually empowerment relationships (Jordan, 2010, p. 105).
This Black woman is me. The terms Black and African American are used interchangeably. It is my preference to identify with the Black ...

Introduction

Micro living is increasingly becoming a popular trend in major cities today prompted by the need to minimize the consumption of space. This trend to a great extend is prompted by the increasing population of people in major town centers and city dwellings. The city of New York is particularly picking pace with the trend where apartment buildings are increasingly becoming smaller and smaller. The lack of space requires that several adjustments be made to maximize the space in the house. Maximization of space is done through various approaches of micro living that are ultimately meant to utilize a small space in ...

Introduction

Creative destruction is a term used “to refer to the incessant product and the process innovation mechanism by which new production units replace outdated ones” (Schumpeter 81). Backhaus writes that “the term creative destruction is the oxymoron of creation and destruction; it appears to be a paradox. But what it means is to create the new and destroy the old and the new and the old are not on the same dimension” (Backhaus 600). Creative destruction, explain Acs and David, “is the view of the market process as the elimination of the old way of economic life, not as the achievement ...

Even with cyber security systems and measures in place, company cannot think themselves safe, for there are always some loopholes or vulnerabilities left in the defense system. Their exploitation may affect companies in many ways, with impact making itself felt through reputational damage, the loss of delicate information, and expenditure associated with the deployment of additional cyber protection mechanisms. Companies incur heavy financial losses estimated at hundreds of thousands of dollars. The US-based AWS Inc. is the company that should not deem itself as being invincible, as big companies are the first in line for a big-scale attack. To ...

Why is it done this way? Who started it and why?

An extremely new product making its impact on the health and wellness marketplace is the Airing. It is a small, hoseless, cordless, CPAP machine, which looks and (purportedly) feels completely different than its predecessors.
CPAP stands for Constant Positive Airway Pressure and is a therapy device used to treat those with sleep apnea. The new device, called Airing, was developed by inventor Steven Marsh, from a project that was focused on very different technology. He refers to its development as an “incredibly happy accident (Medcalf 1).” He was working on a technology focused research assignment on mico-fluid pumps in micro electro mechanical ...

Studies show that at least 80% of people around the globe are living on less than $10 a day (Zeller, et al. 446). This means that there are families out there who need to ration food that will last them a week or a month with a salary that some Americans receive just after working for one hour. The problem is not in the lack of natural resources, we see countries that are rich in terms of minerals, crops and even oil. However, the distribution of wealth is not equal. The problem is that the income differentials are widening, and people are left ...

Introduction

Biomass is a biological material obtained from a living organism or a recently living organism. The word biomass is derived from two Greek words; bio meaning life, and maza meaning mass (Demirbas, “Fuels from Biomass” 43). Biomass means non-fossil and bio-decomposable organic matter (originating from plants, animals and microorganisms). The products, byproducts, residues and waste from agricultural processing, all constitute biomass. Bio-waste simply means non-fossil and biodegradable waste that is composed of organic matter. Bio-wastes include food and kitchen wastes, garden and park wastes, and wastes from food processing plants. Bio-waste is therefore an element of biomass.
Non-fossil wastes that are ...

Is Social Work Just Common Sense?Name:Institutional Affiliation:

Often the unsung heroes of society, social workers are not often considered to be the top of professionalism. From the outside, it looks like a job that anybody off the streets can apply. Social work revolves around helping people; with common sense as your guide surely you will be able to complete all of your tasks correctly! This is an incorrect assumption, however. It takes many people by surprise to find out that social workers may need a BA or even and MA in order to compete for a job in social work. In fact, many did not know you needed a degree ...

Socialization is a process in which individuals are imparted with knowledge, norms, skill, values, morals, and language. This makes them to be considered as full members of that society. Work shapes an individual in many ways. One being an individual will have to change the way he or she should behave at work. For example, one is expected to be humble before the boss and the seniors. One has to change dressing code depending on the kind of work he or she does for example, office workers are expected to wear official attires. Work shapes an individual language for example ...

Snake oil peddlers, magicians, and charlatans have been with us since the dawn of humanity. As technology advances, the aforementioned hucksters tend to cloak their trade in the mystique of the novel and contemporary enlightenments. The belief in telekinetic activity and the idea of controlling things intrinsically with thoughts has grown in popularity as we have moved into a world where scientific advancement is providing a sound physical basis for these wonders. Promoters of ESP and psychokinesis would like people to believe that it is possible to un-tap the minds power to perform physical tasks without the exertion of physical activity. ...

Conclusion and Summary of Results

The focus of this study was to explore a Black woman’s resiliency after her exposure to a physiological and psychological toxic work environment. The work environment surrounding an African-American woman can often be a source of distress because of the way her colleagues and others treat her. For example, many Black women are treated as if they are a stereotype; a caricature of what people assume is a “black woman.” Micro-aggressions experienced each day become magnified as emotional assaults on the woman increase; or, as her ability to deflect the inappropriate behavior decreases or as the intensity of both becomes greater. The stereotyping and ...
