    UNIT 5 Building Cultural Bridges Visual Prompt: How might people with many different cultural backgrounds support different approaches to solving the world’s major issues? Unit Overview In previous units of this book, you have learned that literature can bring together people from different cultures. Yet one viewing of the nightly news proves that cultural harmony is far from a reality. Cultural clashes continue to afflict the world, and conflicts over environmental resources are increasingly a source of such clashes. In this unit, you will examine one issue in depth: global warming, © 2018 College Board. All rights reserved. or climate change, and the controversy that surrounds it. You will study this issue with two purposes in mind: one, to understand the issue and the conflicts to which it contributes, and two, as a model for a research project that you will present to your classmates. You will use your study of nonfiction film to design a short film to present your project.

An Update on Our Emeritus Professors Since most of the readers of this newsletter are former students in our department, we thought you might like to hear about your professors from your Prince Lucien Campbell Hall, college years. home of the political science department William Baugh retired in 2003 and continued teaching part-time for the next five years. In retirement, he entered the University of Oregon architecture program. He lives near Junction City with his wife, Cheryl. James Davies lives in Eugene, Oregon, and is a bit older than ninety. Perhaps his best known publication is “Toward a Theory of Revolution,” appearing in The American Sociological Review. The “J- Curve” suggests that revolution is more likely when people have experienced a fairly long period of satisfaction of their needs and then they are faced with a sharp downturn in satisfaction. He is also the author of When Men Revolt and Why: A Reader in Political Violence and Revolution and Violence in America (New York: Signet Books, 1969). A reflection on the work of James Davies, coauthored by John Orbell and Roshani Shay, is forthcoming in Politics and the Life Sciences. Daniel Goldrich remains active in the Community Alliance of Lane County, doing educational events promoting peace, justice, and policies to confront climate change via a revitalized locally and regionally based economy. Key question: how to break through denial to animate the effort to realize these changes? He and his wife, Hannah, consider themselves fortunate to have a decent public employee pension that allows them to spend a few winter weeks every year in Oaxaca, Mexico, swimming, reading, and visiting friends, including local artisans.

  • Wmc Investigation: 10-Year Analysis of Gender & Oscar
    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.
