  • Ending Injustice in Our Fields and Dairies: New York State Should Extend Basic Labor Protections to Farmworkers
    POLICY BRIEF | MAY 2019 Ending Injustice in Our Fields and Dairies: New York State Should Extend Basic Labor Protections to Farmworkers In 1937, New York State lawmakers passed fundamental labor protections for the state’s workers. But just as Congress had done in the landmark federal labor law enacted two years earlier, New York lawmakers excluded farmwork and other industries disproportionately employing workers of color from these protections. In the eight decades since, farmworkers have been paid low wages for onerous work, suffered poor living conditions, and been exposed to wage theft, physical injury, trafficking, and harassment. Since the 1990s, lawmakers in Albany have promised to address this shortcoming, and yet these unfair exclusions from basic legal protections persist. Often working in rural isolation, for employers who control virtually every aspect of their lives, the men and women who produce our sustenance cannot depend upon basic labor laws, and yet they are also constrained from banding together to improve their conditions. We are past due to end the discrimination in New York’s fields and dairies, and to extend collective bargaining rights and other baseline labor protections to farmworkers. To Farmworkers, Promises Made and Promises Broken Time and time again, agricultural workers laboring in one of the lowest-paid and most dangerous occupations in the United States have been told by policymakers that they don’t matter. As a result of legislative compromises in the drafting of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] A Female Houdini: Popular Culture in Margaret Atwood's Lady Oracle Abstract Popular discourses are ubiquitous in the writing of Margaret Atwood. Her novels, poetry and critical writing constantly foreground ways in which notions of gender identity, and of cultural identity more generally, have been shaped by media and other popular representations. References to Hollywood and television rub shoulders with allusions to magazines, fairy tale, popular song and a host of other forms responsible for women's socialization and female mythologies: these include the Persephone2 and Triple Goddess3 myths, popular religious discourse, advertising language and iconography and the stereotypical norms inculcated in girls by such institutions as Brownies and Home Economics classes.4 This journal article is available in Kunapipi: https://ro.uow.edu.au/kunapipi/vol14/iss1/15 AFemale Houdini: Popular Culture in Margaret Atwood's Lady Oracle 71 JOHN THIEME A Female Houdini: Popular Culture in Margaret Atwood's Lady Oracle There are whole magazines with not much in them but the word love, you can rub it all over your body and you can cook with it too.' 1 (Margaret Atwood, 'Variations on the Word Love' ) Popular discourses are ubiquitous in the writing of Margaret Atwood.

With one picture, the first one sees it as spots on a giraffe. The second one sees it as eyes and a nose when you turn it around at 90 degrees. The third one sees it as a close-up of Swiss cheese. The fourth one sees it as two balloons playing catch. It all depends on how you look at it. The four LeVars look at a couple more eye riddles. Many people see many things in different ways. Besides having a unique way of seeing things, people's other senses are unique too. LeVar loves coming Arthurs Eyes the farmer's bazaar because he gets surrounded by all kinds of sights, smells, and textures. He challenges the viewers' eyes at seeing Arthurs Eyes of certain fruits and vegetables. The things the viewers see are viewed through a special camera lens. Some people use special lenses to see things, especially when they can't see well. LeVar explains, "I wear glasses, and sometimes I wear contact lenses.

We’ve seen Matthew Crawley melt Lady Mary’s heart. And thanks to the fabulously quotable Dowager Countess, we’re still pondering, “What is a week-end?” The sixth and final season of the popular Masterpiece series opens in 1925. Women’s rights have given Lady Mary and Lady Edith new positions of responsibility: Mary runs the COURTESY OF NICK BRIGGS estate, and Edith manages the magazine she inherited from Michael Gregson. Tom has left for Boston, and newlyweds Lady Rose and Atticus are trying their luck in Jazz Age New York. Anna faces a murder charge, and big doubts hang over the servants’ jobs. Will great houses and the fortunes that support them soon be gone? One thing is certain: NJTV will continue to be your DOWNTON ABBEY SEASON 6 home for great drama. PREMIERES WEDNESDAY, On February 2, we’re pleased to premiere Mercy FEBRUARY 3 AT 9PM Street, a new six-part series following the lives of doctors, nurses, contraband laborers, and MERCY STREET ANTONY PLATT Southern loyalists in Union-occupied Alexandria, AIRS TUESDAYS AT 10PM Virginia, and the Mansion House Hospital in the early years of the Civil War.

By foregrounding the role of the audience in creating meaning and by minimizing the “show” as a coherent work, I reconnect musicals to their roots in comedy by way of Mikhail Bakhtin’s theories of carnival and reduced laughter. The audiences I study are kids, queers, and collectors, an alliterative set of people whose gender identities and expressions all depart from or fall outside of the normative binary. Focusing on these audiences, whose musical comedy fandom is widely acknowledged but little studied, I follow Raymond Knapp and Stacy Wolf to demonstrate that musical comedy provides a forum for identity formation especially for these problematically gendered audiences. ii The dissertation of Samuel Dworkin Baltimore is approved.

    THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY BY DOUGLAS ADAMS 2001 HANOMAG D OCUMENT VERSION 1.0 C OPYRIGHT © DOUGLAS A DAMS for Jonny Brock and Clare Gorst and all other Arlingtonians for tea, sympathy, and a sofa Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape- descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea. This planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most of the people on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy. And so the problem remained; lots of the people were mean, and most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches. Many were increasingly of the opinion that they'd all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no one should ever have left the oceans. And then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change, one girl sitting on her own in a small cafe in Rickmansworth suddenly realized what it was that had been going wrong all this time, and she finally knew how the world could be made a good and happy place.
