Book There s Only 1 RACE  The HUMAN One  Says Me

Download or read book There s Only 1 RACE The HUMAN One Says Me written by Kimberly Y. Erwin and published by InterCultural Connect Books. This book was released on 2020-02 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There's only 1 RACE--the HUMAN one," says me!--A Children's Book: Ending Racism" allows children, parents, and teachers to demystify the term "race." This book was intentionally done with local student participants-both in front of and behind the camera. Positive images are shown of actual children with differing skin "hues" and "shades," "accents," that are seen and heard everyday in their multicultural schools, neighborhoods, and community-at-large. The readers follow the youth through several different relatable scenarios in their school, where they are confronted with a problem related to having a low self-esteem or a lack of self-confidence permeating from their (and other's) perceived of ethnic, cultural make-up or heritage. These scenarios show the transformation of the young people as active participants-changing their beliefs and ideas in order to make friends. They are shown to actively engage in behaviors that belie the "stereotypes"-the perceived of negative differences as sometimes envisioned through one's "ethnicity" and overall cultural "identity." These terms (highlighted in the text) and others found in the glossary were carefully chosen and defined simply and accurately so the readers may be informed thinkers and begin their path towards not only being aware and knowledgeable of diversity but true non-racists-those who are allied and supportive of others who share the same race (the HUMAN one) as they represent the varied different categories-including "nationality" (another highlighted term). The interactive nature of the book-in which children are able to create their own "best practices" depicted on the back of the book-gives parents & teachers the means of preparing their students for discussions about "racism" & "racists," thereby empowering children to talk about themselves and their experiences and providing for better social-emotional skills that the book demonstrates. As it states in the introductory pages, this picture book is "Teaching children about Race, Ethnicity, and Cultural Identity via scenarios and pictures of today's youth allows us a creative opportunity to root out & TO END a most ignorant & destructive "ISM," RACISM" so that "One day may we all (of every hue, shade, and tone) come to know the beauty of us-the human rainbow!"

Download or read book Perspective as Symbolic Form written by Erwin Panofsky and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Erwin Panofsky’s Perspective as Symbolic Form is one of the great works of modern intellectual history, the legendary text that has dominated all art-historical and philosophical discussions on the topic of perspective in this century. Finally available in English, this unrivaled example of Panofsky’s early method places him within broader developments in theories of knowledge and cultural change. Here, drawing on a massive body of learning that ranges over ancient philosophy, theology, science, and optics as well as the history of art, Panofsky produces a type of “archaeology” of Western representation that far surpasses the usual scope of art historical studies. Perspective in Panofsky’s hands becomes a central component of a Western “will to form,” the expression of a schema linking the social, cognitive, psychological, and especially technical practices of a given culture into harmonious and integrated wholes. He demonstrates how the perceptual schema of each historical culture or epoch is unique and how each gives rise to a different but equally full vision of the world. Panofsky articulates these distinct spatial systems, explicating their particular coherence and compatibility with the modes of knowledge, belief, and exchange that characterized the cultures in which they arose. Our own modernity, Panofsky shows, is inseparable from its peculiarly mathematical expression of the concept of the infinite, within a space that is both continuous and homogenous.

Download or read book Closing the Courthouse Door written by Erwin Chemerinsky and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading legal scholar explores how the constitutional right to seek justice has been restricted by the Supreme Court The Supreme Court s decisions on constitutional rights are well known and much talked about. But individuals who want to defend those rights need something else as well: access to courts that can rule on their complaints. And on matters of access, the Court s record over the past generation has been almost uniformly hostile to the enforcement of individual citizens constitutional rights. The Court has restricted who has standing to sue, expanded the immunity of governments and government workers, limited the kinds of cases the federal courts can hear, and restricted the right of habeas corpus. Closing the Courthouse Door, by the distinguished legal scholar Erwin Chemerinsky, is the first book to show the effect of these decisions: taken together, they add up to a growing limitation on citizens ability to defend their rights under the Constitution. Using many stories of people whose rights have been trampled yet who had no legal recourse, Chemerinsky argues that enforcing the Constitution should be the federal courts primary purpose, and they should not be barred from considering any constitutional question.
