  • JULY 29-AUGUST 1, 2014 the Aspen Institute Is an Educational and Policy Studies Organization Based in Washington, DC
    JULY 29-AUGUST 1, 2014 The Aspen Institute is an educational and policy studies organization based in Washington, DC. Its mission is to foster leadership based on enduring values and to provide a nonpartisan venue for dealing with critical issues. The Institute has campuses in Aspen, Colorado, and on the Wye River on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. It also maintains offices in New York City and has an international network of partners. For more information, visit www.aspeninstitute.org. The Aspen Global Leadership Network (AGLN) is a worldwide community of successful, high-integrity, entrepreneurial leaders, called Aspen Global Leadership Fellows. Because of their demonstrated leadership accomplishments and abilities, these Fellows have been selected to be part of one of 12 active or sector-specific Fellowships around the world. These Fellowships include or are modeled after the Aspen Institute’s flagship values-based leadership program, the Henry Crown Fellowship Program, launched in 1997. Fellows enter their program having demonstrated a great deal of personal success. They leave it inspired to make a greater mark on their communities and the world; to move, as we say, “from success to significance.” In between, they are provided with an intimate forum for deep introspection, probing dialogue, and interactive problem-solving. The Aspen Global Leadership Network is designed to spur these Fellows to stretch themselves — to take their leadership to greater heights and broaden their impact to include society at large. The Network connects Fellows through events like the Aspen Action Forum so that they can learn from, collaborate with, and support one another. The Aspen Global Leadership Network includes nearly 1,900 Fellows from 48 countries — and is growing.

Regardless of how we quantify a sequence of events and the intervals in between them, most would agree that time seems to pass all too quickly. And the visionaries in U.S. Hispanic marketing who 10 years ago gathered to discuss how collectively agencies could enumerate the Hispanic market A10 A18 potential to corporate marketers, feed the professional needs of emerging Ttalent and create a community of sharing to enable the industry to flourish, would agree. It seems like just yesterday that the Association of Hispanic Advertising Agencies was born out of that passion that took root 10 years ago and today has grown to 100 agencies strong representing 98% of the Hispanic marketing firms in the U.S. and more than $5 bil- lion in Hispanic advertising spending.

How Selective Amnesia Brought Us the First Black Socialist President of the United States Kristen Hoerl University of Nebraska–Lincoln When I was a child, my grandmother loved to repeat the proverb, “history is written by the victors.” She usually said this in response to televised news coverage of a national elec- tion or the conclusion of a foreign conflict. Listening to her at the dinner table with the nightly news in the background might explain why my scholarship has consistently drawn attention to what is excluded from the narratives of national belonging and identification.

    ABSTRACT HUMANITIES JONAS-FOWLER, JOYCELYN J. B.A. CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 1996 M.P.A. TROY STATE UNIVERSITY, 2005 IS THIS BLACK ENOUGH FOR YOU? A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN FAMILIES PORTRAYED IN BLACK FAMILY TELEVISION COMEDIES BETWEEN 1980 AND 2000 Committee Chair: Charmayne Patterson, Ph.D. Dissertation dated May 2018 Research shows that black people watch more television than any other race of people, and, given that television is the most influential media tool, the content of what may affect an audience’s behavior and beliefs deserves analysis. This study examines the black family, alleged pathology, strengths that are specifically associated with them, its portrayal on television, and how television is used as a tool for socialization and influence. A content analysis of the top thirty black family shows that appeared on major network television between 1980 and 2000 was conducted to determine if the family framed was portrayed realistically. Each show analyzed was found to portray some characteristic of strong black families, attributes some media and social critics had not previously recognized or acknowledged.
