MARCH 8: ARTS ADVOCACY DAY @ the Capitol for Art VOICES~ February 2011 ~ THE PUBLICATION OF THE SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA ARTS & HUMANITIES COUNCIL, INC. MARCH 8: ARTS ADVOCACY DAY @ The Capitol Each year, Minnesota Citizens for the Arts invites arts advocates to the Minnesota History Center and State Capitol to talk about the arts, make new friends, and educate legislators about the importance of the arts to Minnesota. Through this big day, we show the strength of Minnesota’s arts community. Each year, there are representatives from small rural choirs and suburban community theaters, presenters and big organizations, museums and art centers of all sizes, painters, tenors, dancers, cellists, French horn players, and arts administrators joining together to send a message to our legislators. Past participants have enthusiastically reported two things about Advocacy Day: First, they feel empowered by gathering together with like- minded people. Second, they say that Arts Advocacy Day is the best arts networking event of the year. This is the only time that arts lovers of all kinds gather together in one place. Participation in events like Arts Advocacy Day has led to Arts Advocacy Day 2010: SMAHC supporters on the capitol steps significant increases in state arts funding, including 1997′s $12 million Arts Initiative and the Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund for Arts Advocacy Day Schedule March 8, 2011 which the unified voice of the arts community was critical to 7:30 a.m. Meet at the Minnesota History Center, St. Paul securing. 8:00 a.m. Registration & Coffee Our legislators need to be educated about the importance of 8:00 a.m. Advocacy Class for new attendees the arts to our state every year.

  • Book Review the Black Police: Policing Our Own
    BOOK REVIEW THE BLACK POLICE: POLICING OUR OWN LOCKING UP OUR OWN: CRIME AND PUNISHMENT IN BLACK AMERICA. By James Forman Jr. New York, N.Y.: Farrar, Straus and Giroux. 2017. Pp. 306. $27.00. Reviewed by Devon W. Carbado∗ & L. Song Richardson∗∗ INTRODUCTION Since Darren Wilson shot and killed Michael Brown in 2014,1 the problem of police violence against African Americans has been a rela- tively salient feature of nationwide discussions about race. Across the ideological spectrum, people have had to engage the question of whether, especially in the context of policing, it’s fair to say that black lives are undervalued. While there is both a racial and a political divide with respect to how Americans have thus far answered that question, the emergence of Black Lives Matter movements2 has made it virtually im- possible to be a bystander in the debate. Separate from whether racialized policing against African Americans is, in fact, a social phenomenon, is the contestable question about solu- tions: Assuming that African Americans are indeed the victims of over- policing, meaning that by some metric they end up having more inter- actions with the police and more violent encounters than is normatively warranted, what can we do about it? And here, the answers range from abolishing police officers altogether, to training them, to diversifying po- lice departments. It is on the last of these proposed solutions — the diversification of police departments — that we focus in this essay. The central question we ask is: What are the dynamics that might shape how African American police officers police other African Americans? Asked another way, what do existing theories about race and race relations, ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– ∗ Associate Vice Chancellor of BruinX for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, the Honorable Harry Pregerson Professor of Law, University of California, Los Angeles School of Law.

The majority of these studies have focused on the interaction between a local language and a non-local language. In this project, I propose an analysis of the mixture of two world languages (Spanish and English), which can be categorised as both local and non-local. I do this through the analysis of the enormously successful reggaeton genre, which is characterised by its use of Spanglish. I used two data types to inform my research: a corpus of code-switching instances in top 20 reggaeton songs, and a questionnaire on attitudes towards Spanglish in general and in music. I collected 200 answers to the questionnaire – half from American English-speakers, and the other half from Spanish-speaking Hispanics of various nationalities.

Jerald Ainsworth Dean of the Graduate School OUT OF THE BODY By Benjamin Louis Duvall A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of English in Creative Writing The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee May 2012 ii ABSTRACT This thesis contains four original pieces of short fiction and one short essay on the craft of writing fiction. The short stories range in topics from a young man who doesn’t want to work in his father’s business to a writer who comes face to face – and often shares bodies – with his own characters. Two of the stories are literary fiction, one is metafiction, and one is science- fiction. All four stories are written in the first-person point of view. The craft essay examines the prevalence and implications of the self-aware first-person narrator in fiction. This particular narrative style was found to be intrinsic to many stories written in the first-person, and this discovery led to the incorporation of self-aware elements to the narrators of the original stories presented in this collection. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

  • God Has Prepared New Bodies in Heaven for His Children. SCRIPTURE
    Devotion NT321 CHILDREN’S DEVOTIONS FOR THE WEEK OF: LESSON TITLE: Our Glorious New Bodies THEME: God has prepared new bodies in Heaven for His children. SCRIPTURE: 1 Corinthians 15:35-57 Dear Parents… Welcome to Bible Time for Kids! Bible Time for Kids is a series of daily devotions for children and their families. Our purpose is to supplement our Sunday morning curriculum and give you an opportunity to encourage your children to develop a daily devotional life. We hope you and your family will be blessed as you study God's Word together. This week in Children’s Church we learned about Our Glorious New Bodies. The theme was “God has prepared new bodies in heaven for His children.” What will heaven be like? What will our new bodies be like? What does God have in store for us in heaven? These are questions that all of us have at different times. Children also have these questions as well. The devotions this week will piggy-back off of our study from Sunday and hopefully clarify and give further understanding to the children regarding these things. All five devotions this week go together and develop a story about Tommy whose grandmother has passed away. He has a conversation with his grandpa that helps him to understand a little bit more about heaven and what the future holds for Christians. The section of scripture that we studied was 1 Corinthians 15:35-57. The following five devotions are based on either the scripture and/or the theme for Sunday’s lesson.
