Privileges refer to benefits, immunity, or a right enjoyed only a person or a particular group of people. White privilege encompasses unearned power that has been systematically conferred to whites over the years (Rothenberg, 2011). What other people, consider as privileges, some whites consider being normal daily experience conditions that are available to all people. Some of the earned entitlements include free speech, feeling safe in places that are considered public spaces, being valued for the contributions one can make in the society and being able work in places that enable them to fulfill their potential. For an individual ...

Mass Communication sets or perpetuates some gender agendas.

Mass communication provides an enormous influence on today’s society. It is something, which influences people thoughts, ideas, and attitude. It deals with art, paintings, films, music, and language. It ruins all the censorship that influences people during many centuries (Tedlock). Today, such things as movies, the TV, has a massive influence on the generation. In particular, it influences children. Movies today promote the adult way of living. Maybe they do not describe it completely but still provide a great example of everyday life, which little children see. Still, the TV has its censorship, which splits both relevant and ...

It is important for an institution for higher education to conduct preliminary observations and surveys prior to developing a strategic plan in order to determine the areas, or departments that require some change, and those department or areas that are operating, and functioning properly. These initial observations allow the researchers and decision makers to make educated decisions to solve problems and improve overall results (Girden & Kabacoff, 2011). This paper will layout a strategic plan for Spring Valley University (SVU).

According to the 2012 census, the United States total population is estimated to be over 313 million; this represents a 9.7% increase within a period of 10 years (Thomas, 2014). Moreover, the composition of the population is one of the most diverse in the world; it’s made up of people with different racial and ethnic backgrounds ranging from Caucasians or the Whites, the Blacks or African Americans, American Indian and Alaska Native, Asian, Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islanders, and the Hispanics or Latinos. As a result, the diverse U.S. population has serious implications on the United States ...

The Asian American community has long been referred to as a “model minority" which is a term used to refer to non-white ethnic groups in the US and the perceived notion that they can to find success and adapt to the American way of life seamlessly. According to Yen (2), the model minority is one that has achieved economic and societal success.

Diversity Management Trends and Challenges in the Multinational Organizations (MNCs)

Paper Due Date Introduction The global business environment is subject to several influences, resulting from globalization, internationalization of organizational supply chains and ever increasing international mobility of individuals that constitute employment and customer base of modern businesses. Business landscape in the United States has been evolving for several decades, when large companies expanded abroad and found cost-effective solutions in outsourcing, postponement strategies, building on virtual e-commerce environments and took other steps to increase their reach, responsiveness, and resilience on the global business arena. The fact is that growth brings diversity (Syed and Ozbilgin, 34-65). This gender, cultural and professional ...

The Issues

The Asian Americans are groups of the Asians that inhabit the United States of America. Critical issues are affecting the group. The issues may be considered adverse about how the minority groups live in America. One of the significant problems that the group faces includes lack of political access and limitation of minority rights. The issue is related to the political representation of the Asian Americans as well as the minimal rights they face as minorities within the United States of America (Lin and Scherz 13). For instance, there are no policies that exist to protect the interest of ...

Multiculturalism is a defining characteristic of the Canadian people, where persons of diverse backgrounds and origins live in harmony. However, discord persists over the impact of various legislation and practices in the integration of immigrants as well as identifiable religious minorities. Multiculturalism, for instance, finds opposition on the premises that it promotes balkanization and isolation of ethnic groups. Proponents argue that such policy encourages herding of ethnic groups, where differences between groups are amplified as opposed to their common identity as Canadians (Kymlicka Par1). It is imperative for a multiethnic nation like Canada to institute mechanisms that facilitate feelings ...

Black Lives Matter

I find social activism as a modern and more effective way to create awareness about an issue or initiate a protest against one. This is because social activism promotes mass movements in societies in which it is initiated, and as such, important matters that call for everyone’s attention can be addressed with urgency and the level of importance that can bring about social change. The social activism movement: ‘Black Lives Matter’, initially originated in the U.S. and later on replicated in the U.K., is one that I am particularly interested in. Spearheaded by the African-American community, the movement ...

Introduction

Arabs, particularly from Middle East and North Africa have unique psychological challenges that are associated with the back rash that has been brought about by terrorism. In addition to the increased misconception of their religion being associated with the vice, they also face cultural challenges that dictate how they are supposed to live. There are numerous studies that have been carried out among the Arab women on the subject of their mental health. This paper will address the epidemiology of their condition, focusing on the special group on the immigrants, while comparing them with their counterparts at home and ...

Jessica Dagoglou RACE AND POLICE Specific Purpose: To make my audience aware of the close relationship between racism against African Americans and the police today. Thesis Statement: It is my wish to share what I have found out about racism in the police department, and the different policies and standards found to be used when interacting with African American citizens in comparison with other races.

Attention material: Minority citizens such as the African Americans are constantly, arrested, searched, and policed (Correll et al., 2007). This is done at a higher rate than other citizens such as the whites. The ...

Understanding health care utilization and the underlying processes, as well as attitudes from the point of view of patients and providers, is important in today’s complex health care environment. One of the principal objectives in the management of health care utilization is the reduction of practice variation through defined parameters that seek to ensure a cost-effective use of health care resources. However, factors related to individual determinants of utilization of health care services as well as the enabling factors must be taken into consideration in the discussion of health care utilization. Looking at the case of San Antonio, ...

How does the story of the Ugly Duckling in chapter four of the Pinkola Estes book relate to your OWN values, beliefs, experience and personal/professional understanding as a caring-healing, ethical nurse working with women? I find the story of the Ugly Duckling intriguing and extremely validating for me. The story stresses on not giving up no matter the situation you find yourself in, rather continue pressing on until you realize your goals (Estes, 1992). The story holds so much for me because it is about the journey of self-discovery. We are currently living in a world inhabited by an ...

LIMITED UNDERSTANDING OF THE PERCEPTION OF AFRICAN WOMEN IMMIGRANTS IN THE UK AS THE RESULT TO THE CURRENT TREND OF INADEQUATE CLINICAL INTERVENTION FOR POSTNATAL DEPRESSION PATIENTS Limited understanding of the perception of African Women Immigrants in the UK the Cause of the Current trend of inadequate Clinical Intervention

Introduction

Over the recent decades, the number of immigrants settling in the UK has grown exponentially to give the country a new outlook on cultural diversity. With these social changes, new demands have been imposed on the healthcare sector to provide health services in ways that promote social justice. According to ...

I strongly support the views expressed by Zhou in the article. It is often said that America is a land of liberty, equality and opportunity. The gifted people get what they deserve. Asian Americans have proved their ability and they have been credited for one of the major drivers of American economy. They are called “Model Minority”. The previous generations of Asian Americans came to this land to shape their future and the future of their next generations. They got liberty and opportunities to prosper as elite Americans. It clearly indicates that America is a land of liberty and ...

The state of women’s health ranks among the worst performing initiatives in the United States. Many women die during childbirth, and others do not access proper medication during the same. Another campaign is that against abortion. Adverts are put in place to help create awareness to the public on the effects of the act (Snyder, 1998). Mass education is also organized to ensure that everyone knows the impacts that abortion causes to the society. All women are expected to have full access to quality and good health care services. This policy is regardless of their state of the ...

What is the purpose of this research?

What is the research question (or questions)? This may be implicit or explicit. Did the authors describe the research design of this study? If so, give a description. The researchers/authors stated that they used unstructured interviews to assess patient experiences with the help of purposive sampling. All interviews were based on open questions and the interviews were assessed based on existential phenomenology (Witlatch n/d.). The authors were inspired by the concept of interviewing patients and phenomenology based on French philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty (George & Thomas 2010). Phenomenology is based on the assessing individual experiences which help in identifying key ...

The American society is full of different ethnicities and races. However, every ethnicity aims for better life and understanding between each other. For achievement of these goals, the better solution may be found as education. Though, it is a very complicated and controversial issue. Hence, every ethnicity has different perspectives of the process of obtaining the education. On the other hand, it should be mentioned that the opportunities for getting an education are not equal. Therefore, this inequality forms a level of education among the popularity of the USA. This issue has been deeply investigated among the sociologists and ...

Introduction

Since the dawn of human civilization annihilation of millions of people has been occurring. After the two World Wars, this annihilation took place through many civil wars fought within the nations all over the world. The Genocide or the mass killing of a particular ethnic group has been a common phenomenon in civil wars. In 1990s, the Kashmiri Hindus were expelled by Muslim terrorists through severe massacre. The question is whether mass massacre is the answer to any problem. There is a universal agreement that genocide is immoral and unethical (Jones, 1999). Still even after the horrified consequences of ...

Presentation Notes

Many have said that America was built on the backs of immigration and minorities that settled in America. There is a lot of evidence to support this, as the Irish and German immigrants that came in waves during the 1880s were often used for cheap labor. In addition, African-Americans were used as slave labor until the conclusion of the Civil War, playing an important part in the development of the country. In addition, Native Americans were also prominently involved in the process, but certainly not in a positive way; this is because the United States government used resettlement techniques ...

Influence race, ethnicity and gender attributes in the exercise of leadership

Gender, race, and ethnicity have a great influence on how a given leader exercises his or her leadership. These social identities of leaders are likely to influence the behaviors and identity of leaders, and how the execute their mandates (Chin, 2013). The minority groups of people are negatively perceived as leaders. In fact, studies have shown that beliefs concerning leadership are perceived as associated with the cultural beliefs and values, and the social context or cultural background of the perceiver (Chin, 2013). Good leadership will, therefore, be defined differently as cultural backgrounds change. The leaders from these minority groups ...

BODY CAMERAS TO BENEFIT POLICE AND CITIZENS

There is a sustained perception by minority groups such as African-Americans that the law enforcement officers treat discriminately. This has increased incidences of police involvement against the demographics. However, the introduction and use of body cameras come as a panacea towards bringing to an end the unprecedented cases of police brutality and use of excessive force. In addition, civil suits concerning police brutality launched by African Americans are expected to reduce the involvement of body cameras. According to the H.Res.16, the wearing of body cameras by local law enforcement agencies while serving the communities encourages transparency and protects both ...

America was beginning to become a powerful and vital nation in the world in the twentieth century. Power was based on the assumption that Americans felt the abundant life, which was a promise to the world along with the concept and experience of freedom. However, freedom was not experienced by everyone at home in America. Black people felt oppressed and marginalized all the days of their life. In the 1920s, America was beginning to grab attention in the international scene. Europe was fading, while America was appearing as a dominant nation. However, this is not because of the popularity ...

Question 1

A faction is a group of individuals, comprising of members drawn from either a majority or a minority, who are opposed to the common interests of the larger society. Madison states that the motives of a faction are driven by passion or selfish interests (Congress, n.d.).

Question 2

A democratic government comprises of a small number of citizens who gather and administer the government in person. As such, there are no mechanisms or structures to limit the effects of a faction. In such governments, the effects of a faction are most likely to ripple out and affect the majority explaining why ...

Ethnic stratification is a phenomenon creating division and inequality based on difference among people of various backgrounds. It is an unavoidable issue in regions where the population is largely diverse. The United States of America is a nation where a multitude of diversity exists in various forms. Many include gender, race, religion, sexuality, and social class. As the most powerful nation in the world, America is infamous for the inequalities that exist among its dominant white citizens versus all the minorities that reside in the country. Not only is race a sign of superiority in this nation, but the ...

Is our election process fair to everyone?

Introduction The thesis of the paper is that despite the multitude of claims that the 2016 Presidential Election was rigged or unfair, America’s inclusive voter eligibility, the equal opportunity of citizens to run for office, and reliable ballot casting methods ensure that the election process in the United States is completely free and fair. The main purpose of the paper is to find a common ground among supporters and opponents of the basic research question. There are two different claims which support the fairness or unfairness of presidential elections in the United States, where the backing sides’ main ...

Diversity in the workplace is crucial in promoting productivity and fairness among workers. The dimensions of diversity such as age, gender, religious affiliation, and ethnicity among others exhibit a significant influence on an individual or collective healthcare needs and capabilities in various ways. The impact of gender on the healthcare needs, for example, is based on the physiological, anatomical, and behavioral differences between women and men. Concerning behavioral differences, contrary to women, men tend to engage in behaviors that put them at risk of getting injured. Women are also more predisposed to stroke than men owing to the presence ...

In handling the challenges faced by LGBT community in urban areas, medical practitioners, in this case nursing team needs to act as change agents in the existing cultural competency. A challenge that nurses face is the unclear definition of cultural competency in relation to LGBT patients. Intervention methods exist in the form of training medical practitioners to familiarize themselves with treatment of this minority community. The advantage of training is that once the nursing team is equipped with the right knowledge, the existing barriers to effective treatment would be overcome easily.

Abstract

The positive impact that gender equality and diversity produce on companies’ financial performance and success has already been proven. However, these aspects are still the acute problems in business. The process of fostering a diverse workforce implies accepting and supporting differences in the population and promoting a supporting working environment for every individual, regardless of race, religion, sexuality, gender, age, etc. In addition, it is particularly important to understand and meet the demands of the diverse customers, and diversity in the workforce is the answer. Moreover, companies should introduce mentoring and coaching programs to regulate gender equality issues and ...

Introduction

Law enforcement has turned out to be extremely challenging in the contemporary changing social and cultural climate. It has continued to experience a range of challenges that are generated by the existing environment. The law enforcement practices, as well as policies, have received a lot of public scrutiny. Terrorism, large-scale population movements, globalization, and entrenched social problems have made the enforcement of the law, especially by the police, more challenging. The contemporary policing is primarily marked by the uncertainty and broadening of crime deterrence problems. Among the law enforcement officers, the police have been scrutinized heavily by the public. ...

The model of assimilation refers to a group of people integrating into a new culture assimilating its host's cultural elements such as language and customs, losing some or almost all of its original cultural elements. An example of this model is the case of Argentina which has open immigration policies and received a growing number of Chinese. These integrated in such a way that they have assimilated their hosting language, Spanish and the way of Argentinian living, doing business, and social life. The first generation of immigrants continues speaking their language. However, they left behind many of their cultural ...

Overview

Discrimination has a lasting effect on employees who are on its receiving end. One who experiences discrimination at their workplace develops feelings of being vulnerable and in many cases loses interest in their work and career development. Such employees end up suing their organisations to fight for their rights. This causes a lot of unwarranted expenses to the organisation when it actually can be avoided. Discrimination at workplaces is often brought about by differences in race, sexuality, religion, age, sex and national origin. Other minor forms of discrimination include employee's limitation regarding their physical ability or educational level. Such ...

A democratic political body works for the people it has been elected by, and it ensures to work toward fulfilling the hopes and expectations the public places in them. Undoubtedly, a country is being run with the amalgamated efforts of public and private institutions, individuals and groups living in the country. On the surface, it is clear that the minority is protected and cared for by the majority ruling the country, but the matters are different on the inside. Majority rule in a democracy is established after the people place their confidence in a certain candidate and propose him ...

Milton Friedman was a renowned economist and a reputable advisor of the United President Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher who was a Conservative British Prime Minister. Friedman developed an influential and controversial manifesto on the role of the government in a free society on his work titled Capitalism and Freedom. His fundamental objective was to promote the laissez-faire economic policy by often disapproving the interventionist policies held by the government and their cost in economic efficiency and personal freedom within and outside the United States. It is with this light that Friedman provide his view on the significance of ...

Substance abuse is one of the most harmful phenomena of a society. It can also be considered as substance-related disorder, and is related to abuse of drugs, tobacco, and/or alcohol that can lead to harmful outcomes. Estimates show that over 8 million children in the U.S. have one of the parents having substance-related disorder. Substance abuse can result in significant problems in a family as, for example; it can lead to separation of partners, problems in raising the children, employment problems, and severe levels of conflict in the society (Donohue et al., 2014). It has been ...

Positive discrimination is a type of affirmative action intended to equalize the disadvantage that minority groups have previously experienced. It centers on the idea that justified discrimination is required in certain circumstances in order for minority groups and individuals to gain equality in society. While both Kant and Aristotle would argue against positive discrimination, Kant would do so based on his principle of morality, whereas Aristotle would base his argument on the fairness of the outcome. Kant had firm ideas concerning the differentiation between principled and unprincipled policies. Kant argues that proper political thinking should start by confirming two ...

There is a rising awareness of the health disparities that exist in the United States (US). Racial and ethnic minority groups in the country are adversely affected by these health inequities and experience poorer health as compared to the general population in the country. African Americans and Arab Americans are some of the minority groups affected by the existing health disparities. African Americans constitute an estimated 15% of the entire US population and are the second largest emerging population in the country. The number of Americans of Arab ancestry is 1.7 million (Edelman, Mandle, & Kudzma, 2014). This paper will ...

Introduction

According to the New World Encyclopedia (2016), a gender role is an arrangement of behavioral standards related especially with guys or females in a given social gathering or framework, regularly including the division of work amongst men and ladies and the orderly complex of kid raising and socialization forms driving youth toward developing to propagate a similar example. Sex based parts incidental with sex-based parts have been the standard in numerous customary social orders, with the particular segments and workings of the sexual orientation/sex arrangement of part division fluctuating extraordinarily from society to society. Sexual orientation part is a ...

The article, “The debates over placing limits on racist speech must not ignore the damage it does to its victims”, by Charles Lawrence authored in 1989 justifies the impact of limits on racist speeches on the freedom and liberties of the people in the society. In particular, the author argues that regulations and limits on speeches led to the increase in racisms and discrimination against the minorities in the society. In addition, the author claims that racial harassment imposed on the speeches of the students limited the levels of participation of the minority students in politics. Furthermore, the article ...

Background

Being a small sized nation and also one lacking too much of natural resources, it was mandatory for Singapore to adopt a policy of open trade. The overall trade in Singapore currently amounts to thrice its GDP. Moreover, Singapore possesses absolutely no exchange controls either on the inflows or the outflows of foreign currency funds through its residents and non-residents. Despite the presence of stricter controls over the flows of domestic currency, there is no control that the nation has on its inflow and outflow. The country is known to be following an extremely liberal foreign direct investment (FDI) ...

Introduction

The World Health Organization (WHO) says that there are about 400 million people around the world who are currently suffering from a mental illness. If all types of mental illnesses are considered, then it is safe to say that about one in four people will suffer from a mental disorder at one point in their lives. Out of the many mental illnesses, there are some that inflict a severe toll on their sufferers, on their lives and on their families as well. The effects of mental illness can be devastating on a person. However, those with even the most ...

While previously the holistic development and wellbeing of the population of the United States of America has been thwarted by the social ill of racism, the modern era sees a different kind of problem that might be surmised to have found its root in the long dark history of racial discrimination in the country’s milieu. Legal steps and general awareness have ensured that racism is not practiced or advocated in the country in any manner. Nonetheless, the series of events where people of the black community have repeatedly come to be on the receiving end of undue violence ...

Derogatory Terms Used as Tools for Maintaining the Privileged Status of Young White Males

In the United States of America, young white males from the middle class occupy a privileged status and therefore enjoy many benefits, such as being able to attain their goals without facing social pressures and barriers. While this group is occupies a position of power, people who fall short of any of the characteristics which would allow them to enter it, are discriminated from one or more points of view. Race, class, ability, gender, age, sexuality and ethnicity are some of the demographic features which are considered when establishing the power relation in the society. Groups which occupy a ...

Question 1:

Several legal and ethical principles influence the workforce in healthcare organizations, particularly in light of employees belonging to diverse cultural backgrounds coming together for achieving common organizational goals. Towards managing employees in a huge healthcare setting it would be effective for HR functionaries to understand the legal relationships existing between the organization and employees in the first place. Most importantly, healthcare organizations that employ diverse employees must clearly define ethical behavior patterns of employees among each other and with the patients and their family members. Ethical behavior with employees belonging to another culture calls for not only treating each ...

Introduction

The healthcare system in Australia is termed as one of the most successful in the world when it comes to the delivery of good healthcare. Additionally, the health outcomes, as well as the control of costs by the system, are remarkably effective as stated by Hall (2015). Such achievements have however been achieved through the interaction of the public and private financial backing, public and private provision of services, and the sharing of key duties between the federal as well as the state governments (Hall, 2015). In the US, no single system of health insurance covers the nation. Health ...

Managing diversity in the business management context

Ethnicity and discrimination based on gender in the labour market have been highly prevalent in recent years with many nations and their governments searching for alternative strategies and developing policies to reduce it. Education has for so long been perceived as the only avenue through which this menace can be addressed, and policymakers have been trying to regulate it in such a way as to offer equal opportunities to all individuals. There has been a marked improvement in registration into institutions of higher learning by young BME people in recent years in the UK. This is mainly fueled by ...

Question one

The concept addressed by ‘Anatomy of Prejudices’ is diversity and asserts that different individuals have varied perceptions and attitudes on others. Diversity generates the need to address issues of racism in an organization and how their views on others shape behavior, attitudes, and values of individuals. The ‘Anatomy of Prejudices’ draws useful insights on how racism drives individuals to have negative stereotypes that prevent them from actively engaging in interactive sessions with the minority. The video reflects the fact that the majority are among those who lead in racism and have ill motives to suppress minority’s influence in ...

Question/Problem Definition

Equal pay is one of the most pertinent issues in labor laws and regulation. Most governments across the globe have institutionalized legislation that aim to safeguard their citizens and ensure that they are well compensated for their talents regardless of their origin, race, gender and other distinguishing characteristics. However, this is not usually the case. In spite of having such laws, the labor market especially the private sector is far from realizing and implementing equal pay. The state is even worse in developing countries where most women employees do not earn even half as much as their male counterparts ...

The American constitution advocates for the equality of all people in the United States. The law in the US protects all the vulnerable and minority groups who live within the American territories.

The legislative and judiciary arms of government have been in a push to ensure that the rights of the aforementioned groups are protected legally. In this context, this paper will analyze the way the American law recommends employers’ treatment of individuals with disabilities and those from different religions. Significantly, this paper ...

Introduction

It is essential to mention that diversity is all about understanding one another irrespective of our race, culture, sexual orientation, physical ability, gender, social class, or ethnicity, and embracing tolerance to our individual differences. Diversity is primarily a good thing as it allows for both variety and richness and increases innovation which, in turn, facilitates the economic growth of a country. Diversity is fundamentally an opportunity because the society, which learns to coexist with it has high chances of attaining faster ...

Introduction

In international business, the organizations also need to consider cultural and social values at individual levels in the present competitive business environment (Mandják et al., 2016; Weinzimmer & Esken, 2016).

Critical Analysis Paragraph 10

The subject article proposes a modification of Rawlsian Justice Theory to be centered on social and subsistence security. This amendment will, however, narrow the scope of the theory as other elements that are not listed are lost. While security and subsistence justice is critical to a stable society, the input of the people existing in particular society count. It is therefore, imperative that elements and term of the agreement, remain hypothetical as Rawls intended. Listing an item of interest one by one may go to infinity and as the society is made up of different people probably with different ...

Introduction

The question of racial discrimination in the legal system of the United States is a sought after topic despite limited evidence to support its existence at present. Although the nation once participated in discriminatory practices in the past, the majority of the activities ceased during the last few decades. Despite sweeping developments in recent years, the news never grows old while reporting a possible aberration. This research paper examines the evidence of data available in the books against the media reports which claim the rampant existence of racial discrimination. Each section in this research paper will raise question regarding ...

Introduction

Racism is the ideology of racial inferiority/superiority at the individual, cultural, or institutional level that influences the perceptions and behavior of members of different racial groups towards others (Pieterse et al., 2011; Hoyt Jr., 2012). Research on the issue of racial prejudice has led to the association of perceived racism with poor psychological well being and psychological stress. Racism is an important concern in the present society due to the current prevalence of fatal violence against African Americans on the streets and even in church. It raises questions on the true incidence and impact of racial prejudice in the ...

Introduction

In fact Chinese have landed to the US already in 1848. The main reason behind their resettlement in American soil was golden mines that have lured thousands of Chinese people to the States. Yet, as soon as the economy in the States declined Chinese workers were seen as a significant issue for the majority of Americas’ working population. As a result, a severe law was adopted to hold back the Chinese and forced them to move to the shelter that later turn into one of the most popular tourist attractions for the visitors of San-Francisco (Chinatown Resource Guide). This ...
