Kellogg lived in Sandy Hook for thirty-five years—he raised his family there and was an active member of the community.

Download or read book Black Snowflakes written by Spencer Shaw Page and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-11-27 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liberal Victimhood has sabotaged the minds of young Blacks causing them to become whining, sniveling, sensitive, little snowflakes. Books like Ta-Nehisi Coates' Between the World and Me treat young Black males like hopeless infants. Black Snowflakes by Spencer Shaw Page serves as the antithesis by compelling Black Americans to take responsibility for their lives. Figures like Robin DiAngelo, Nikole Hannah-Jones, Ibram X. Kendi and Ta-Nehisi Coates paint a historical picture of hopelessness and abject victimhood. They disrespect our ancestors by blatantly ignoring the heroes of our past. Black History is filled with inspiring entrepreneurs, inventors, intellectuals, and innovators. Many of them earned their fortunes during the horrors of American Slavery and Jim Crow. It's stories like that of Mary Ellen Pleasant or Jeremiah G. Hamilton that can show young Blacks that, even through the worst of American racism, they can accomplish great things. Black millennials have been taught to adopt an external locus of control which causes them to become childlike and dependent. We have become the counterexamples to the Black heroes of our past. We have become losers in the game of life. Black Snowflakes offers young Black males a new perspective. One that reflects the self-reliance, individualism, and conscientiousness of our ancestors. One that teaches them how to become winners. Young Black males need a message of empowerment and encouragement. They hold the keys to the next generation. If they are not living to the best of their abilities, how can we move forward as a community? Black Snowflakes takes us on a realistic journey into the steps Black males must take in order to live up to the expectations of our forefathers.
Download or read book Snowflake Generation written by Lionel Bolnet and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They are said to be less resilient, less courageous, humorless and constant whiners. The concept of snowflake generation is not only a neologism synonymous with the word susceptible. It is, first of all, a statement of the direction that Western society is heading in because of ... previous generations. These young adults born after 1980 have grown up in a particular comfort, with particular educational methods, in front of particular brands and advertisements. They have witnessed many events and movements that have forged their character. Once exposed to the outside world, around 2010, this character trait astonishes everyone, and even the snowflakes themselves. They don't take risks, complain a lot, can't stand annoyance, hate criticism, want to be pampered at the office and see discrimination around every corner. How could this weakness be turned into a strength? What benefits will society get from this new collective susceptibility? What kind of parents will snowflakes be?
Download or read book What Snowflakes Get Right written by Ulrich Baer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-02 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angry debates about polarizing speakers have roiled college campuses. Conservatives accuse universities of muzzling unpopular opinions, betraying their values of open inquiry; students sympathetic to the left openly advocate against completely unregulated speech, asking for "safe spaces" and protection against visiting speakers and even curricula they feel disrespects them. Some even call these students "snowflakes"-too fragile to be exposed to opinions and ideas that challenge their worldviews. How might universities resolve these debates about free speech, which pit their students' welfare against the university's commitment to free inquiry and open debate? Ulrich Baer here provides a new way of looking at this dilemma. He explains how the current dichotomy is false and is not really about the feelings of offended students, or protecting an open marketplace of ideas. Rather, what is really at stake is our democracy's commitment to equality, and the university's critical role as an arbiter of truth. He shows how and why free speech has become the rallying cry that forges an otherwise uneasy alliance of liberals and ultra-conservatives, and why this First Amendment absolutism is untenable in law and society in general. He draws on law, philosophy, and his extensive experience as a university administrator to show that the lens of equality can resolve this impasse, and can allow the university to serve as a model for democracy that upholds both truth and equality as its founding principles.
