Action 2012 HeartSmarts Ambassadors 2013 HeartSmarts Ambassadors 2014 HeartSmarts Ambassadors 2015 HeartSmarts Ambassadors 2015 HeartSmarts Ambassadors 2016 HeartSmarts Ambassadors Copyright 2017 Dr. Naa-Solo Tettey According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), health disparities are preventable differences in the burden of disease, injury, violence, or opportunities to achieve optimal health that are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations. The HeartSmarts program aims to eliminate health disparities through education, action, and empowerment. Disparities can be found in both health status and health care with members of disadvantaged populations having worse health outcomes and often receiving substandard treatment. An example of a chronic disease that demonstrates a health disparity is heart disease. Although heart disease is the leading cause of death and disability in the United States, it disproportionately impacts members of racial and ethnic groups who have higher rates of cardiovascular disease and its risk factors. Heart disease knows no boundaries and cuts across all socio-economic groups. The HeartSmarts Cardiovascular Health Education Program created by Dr. Naa-Solo Tettey, MPH, MBA aims to reduce the incidence and increase awareness of cardiovascular disease in underserved communities. The goal is to educate individuals, families, and communities about heart disease and its prevention. Through HeartSmarts the hope is to establish a coalition that will partner with educators, clinicians, and researchers in developing and implementing cardiovascular health outreach programs. 2 HeartSmarts Participant Feedback (Below is feedback based on program evaluations from participants taught by HeartSmarts ambassadors) “Excellent program.

This thesis reviews the historical and contextual nature of beauty amongst women of African descent and the Diaspora in the works of Patricia Hill Collins, bell hooks, Malcolm X, W.E.B DuBois and many others on such topics as skin color, hair texture, health, body image and racism. To determine the continuing salience of these issues in the lives of Black women, I interviewed and surveyed ten second generation African (Black) Canadians.

If I always stayed on the mountain top and never experienced pain, I would never appreciate God’s love and I would be living in vain. I have so much to learn, and my growth is very slow, Sometimes I need the mountain tops, but it’s in the valleys I grow. I do not always understand why things happen as they do, But I am very sure of one thing: my Lord will see me through. My little valleys are nothing when I picture Christ on the cross He went through the valley of death; His victory was Satan’s loss. Forgive me Lord, for complaining when I’m feeling so very low. Just give me a gentle reminder that it’s in the valleys I grow. Continue to strengthen me, Lord and use my life each day To share your love with others and help them find their way.

Try not to use this guide as a script. The purpose of this material isn’t to give you exactly what to say. Rather it is to give you the content you need to structure and develop your own lessons. Teach as much as you feel is important for your class. Feel free to go off topic if your own study leads you to approach the passage in a slightly different direction. Don’t feel like you have to cover everything. There is a lot of material in each lesson. Some classes like to cover a lot of ground. Other classes like to camp on one point and drill deep. Start by teaching the Main Point, then teach the Main Bullet Points. Use the extra detail and discussion questions as you see fit. The goal is to generate discussion, specifically regarding life-application. So don’t worry if you don’t get all the way through a lesson.

  • Magda Herzberger: Oral History Transcript
    Magda Herzberger: Oral History Transcript www.wisconsinhistory.org/HolocaustSurvivors/Herzberger.asp Name: Magda Mozes Herzberger (1926– ) Birth Place: Cluj, Romania Arrived in Wisconsin: 1960, Monroe Project Name: Oral Histories: Wisconsin Survivors Magda Herzberger of the Holocaust Biography: Magda Mozes Herzberger was born on February 20, 1926, in Cluj, Romania. On August 30, 1940, the northern part of Transylvania (in Romania, including the capital city of Cluj) was annexed by Hungary, an ally of Nazi Germany. Life for Cluj's nearly 17,000 Jews grew steadily worse over the next four years. On March 27, 1944, the Germans occupied northern Transylvania (Romania) and took large-scale anti-Semitic measures. The Mozes family, along with thousands of other Jews, was forced into the Cluj Ghetto. It was liquidated only a month later. Magda and her family were sent to Auschwitz, where most of them perished. After six weeks in Auschwitz, 18- year-old Magda was shipped to Bremen, Germany. She did forced labor as the city was bombed by Allied forces. In March 1945, Magda was transferred to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Her job there was to dispose of thousands of corpses that had accumulated in and around the barracks. On April 15, 1945, she collapsed from exhaustion. Magda was near death when she was found among the corpses by a liberating British soldier. Magda returned to Cluj late in 1945. In June 1946, she met Eugene Herzberger and the following autumn they married and she began medical school. Fearing persecution under communism, the Herzbergers fled Romania for Palestine in December 1947.
