SIGNED: fk;jlj~ df'fm(0 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are many people who have been instrumental in my completing the Ph.D. There are those who have inspired me intellectually, those who have given me moral support, those who have given me technical advice, those who have given me emotional support, and those who have made it possible for me to obtain financial support. I can't imagine how I would have been able to complete my work without the help of all these individuals. My first thanks go to Dr. Richard Ruiz for igniting my interest in language maintenance issues and for giving me guidance while directing this dissertation. A second intellectual influence in LRC for me was Dr. Luis Moll. It was he who gave me the idea to study language maintenance in a religious setting. lowe him much more, however. My sincerest thanks go to Dr. Teresa McCarty and Dr. Patricia Anders for participating in my dissertation committee. Also, my than.1cs go to them for showing me friendship during a process which can be stressful. I am endlessly grateful to the members of the Seventh-Day Adventist church who participated directly in my study and who gave to me of their time much more than I had expected. My particular thanks go to the pastor of the church, who was exceedingly generous with his time and personal materials. My special thanks go to Dr. Arminda Fuentevilla and to Dr. Adela Allen for all their generosities. Their doors were always open to me. Their warmth was an oasis in a setting where it is often lacking. I thank Maryanne Knox for her technical assistance and for her patience. I am very grateful to my family and friends, who have supported me for a very long time. I thank Mary Carol Combs for her solid support during the last five years. Finally, I thank Dr. Julie Simon for being my dearest and closest friend. More than any other person at The University of Arizona, Julie has seen me through all my ups and downs. 5 DEDICATION I dedicate this dissertation to the three most significant persons in my life. They represent three generations of women: My mother, Alpina, whose unconditional love has been a constant presence for as long as I can remember; My wife, Elizabeth, who has given me love and encouragement when I have needed them most; Finally, my daughter Dia, who at age eight, has known me only as a struggling graduate student, and yet she still loves me. All three of these women have been extremely patient and understanding throughout this long ordeal. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES................. .......................................... ..... ..................... 13 LIST OF FIGURES.................................................................................... 14 ABSTRACT............................................................................................... 15 1.

  • Blacks and Asians in Mississippi Masala, Barriers to Coalition Building
    Both Edges of the Margin: Blacks and Asians in Mississippi Masala, Barriers to Coalition Building Taunya Lovell Bankst Asians often take the middle position between White privilege and Black subordination and therefore participate in what Professor Banks calls "simultaneous racism," where one racially subordinatedgroup subordi- nates another. She observes that the experience of Asian Indian immi- grants in Mira Nair's film parallels a much earlier Chinese immigrant experience in Mississippi, indicatinga pattern of how the dominantpower uses law to enforce insularityamong and thereby control different groups in a pluralistic society. However, Banks argues that the mere existence of such legal constraintsdoes not excuse the behavior of White appeasement or group insularityamong both Asians and Blacks. Instead,she makes an appealfor engaging in the difficult task of coalition-buildingon political, economic, socialand personallevels among minority groups.

Though it is God who changes people, the early Adventists employed specific spiritual practices to place themselves in His presence. Research revealed five main spiritual disciplines that shaped the Advent leaders and by extension the church. The first is Bible study: placing the Holy Scriptures as the foundation for all beliefs. The second is prayer: communication and communion with God.

  • Xenophobia, Nativism and Pan-Africanism in 21St Century Africa
    H-Africa Xenophobia, Nativism and Pan-Africanism in 21st Century Africa Document published by Sabella Abidde on Wednesday, June 17, 2020 cfp-2-xenophobianativismpanafricanism.pdf cfp-2-xenophobianativismpanafricanism.pdf Description: CALL FOR BOOK CHAPTERS Xenophobia, Nativism and Pan-Africanism in 21st Century Africa Sabella Abidde and Emmanuel Matambo (Editors) The purpose of this project is to examine the mounting incidence of xenophobia and nativism across the African continent. Second, it seeks to examine how invidious and self-immolating xenophobia and nativism negate the noble intent of Pan-Africanism. Finally, it aims to examine the implications of the resentments, the physical and mental attacks, and the incessant killings on the psyche, solidarity, and development of the Black World. According to Michael W. Williams, Pan-Africanism is the cooperative movement among peoples of African origin to unite their efforts in the struggle to liberate Africa and its scattered and suffering people; to liberate them from the oppression and exploitation associated with Western hegemony and the international expansionism of the capitalist system. Xenophobia, on the other hand, is the loathing or fear of foreigners with a violent component in the form of periodic attacks and extrajudicial killings committed mostly by native-born citizens. Nativism is the policy and or laws designed to protect the interests of native-born citizens or established residents. The project intends to argue that xenophobia and nativism negate the intent, aspiration, and spirit of Pan-Africanism as expressed by early proponents such as Edward Blyden, W.E.B. Du Bois, C.L.R. James, George Padmore, Léopold Senghor, Jomo Kenyatta, Aimé Césaire, and Kwame Nkrumah.

Attempting to motivate his voters before the 2018 mid-term elections, President Trump sought to sow fear by escalating his anti-immigrant rhetoric.1 Trump labeled a caravan of Central American refugees seeking asylum as an "invasion" and a "crisis" that demanded, in his view, the use of military troops to defend the U.S. border with Mexico. 2 When the caravan arrived, the border patrol used tear gas on the refugees, including mothers with infant children.3 Trump also referred to undocumented immigrants as criminals, rapists, and gang members who pose a direct threat to the welfare of "law-abiding" people.4 Despite the imagery of invasion, crisis, and crime disseminated by President Trump, undocumented immigrants pose no such threats.

  • LITERATURE REVIEW Examples
    Here are some examples of literature reviews to help you grasp what I mean by synthesis of materials: http://sociology2community.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/example_litreview_emsc_lit.pdf http://sociology2community.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/childhealth_litrev.pdf Here is an example of a recent literature review I did for a journal article. LITERATURE REVIEW Nativism and Racism – Separate Phenomena Most scholars want to define nativism and racism as two distinct phenomena. On one hand, nativism is an ideological belief based on nationalist sentiment and separates “natives” from “foreigners” (Galindo and Vigil 2006). Higham (1955:4) defines nativism as an: “intense opposition to an internal minority on the ground of its foreign (i.e., ‘un-American’) connections…a zeal to destroy the enemies of a distinctively American way of life.” Also, Higham (1999:384) states that “nativism always divided insiders, who belonged to the nation, from outsiders, who were in it but not of it.” Nativism frequently becomes imbedded in social structures, shaping the treatment of foreigners within institutions, deciding “who counts as an American” (Galindo and Vigil 2006:422; Higham 1955; Knobel 1996). Nativism rises up during times of national crisis through anti-immigrant sentiment that emphasizes fears that foreigners are either threatening or taking over culturally, politically, or economically. These national calamities usually include economic downturns, wars (or terrorist attacks), or sudden increases in visibility due to the size or concentration of immigrant populations (Galindo and Vigil 2006; Higham 1955; Perea 1997; Portes and Rumbaut 2006; Sánchez 1997). Systematic actions influenced by nativism have included restrictive immigration policies and laws, increases in riots and hate crimes, and the rise of nativist organizations.

  • Re-Indigenizing Spaces: How Mapping Racial Violence Shows the Interconnections Between
    “Re-Indigenizing Spaces: How Mapping Racial Violence Shows the Interconnections Between Settler Colonialism and Gentrification” By Jocelyn Lopez Senior Honors Thesis for the Ethnic Studies Department College of Letters and Sciences Of the University of California, Berkeley Thesis Advisor: Professor Beth Piatote Spring 2020 Lopez, 2 Introduction Where does one begin when searching for the beginning of the city of Inglewood? Siri, where does the history of Inglewood, CA begin? Siri takes me straight to the City History section of the City of Inglewood’s website page. Their website states that Inglewood’s history begins in the Adobe Centinela, the proclaimed “first home” of the Rancho Aguaje de la Centinela which housed Ignacio Machado, the Spanish owner of the rancho who was deeded the adobe in 1844. Before Ignacio, it is said that the Adobe Centinela served as a headquarters for Spanish soldiers who’d protect the cattle and springs. But from whom? Bandits or squatters are usually the go to answers. If you read further into the City History section, Inglewood only recognizes its Spanish and Mexican past. But where is the Indigenous Tongva-Gabrielino history of Inglewood? I have lived in Inglewood all of my life. I was born at Centinela Hospital Medical Center on Hardy Street in 1997. My entire K-12 education came from schools under the Inglewood Unified School District. While I attend UC Berkeley, my family still lives in Inglewood in the same house we’ve lived in for the last 23 years. Growing up in Inglewood, in a low income, immigrant family I witnessed things in my neighborhood that not everyone gets to see.

  • Dr. John Harvey Kellogg and the Religion of Biologic Living [Review] / Wilson, Brian C
    244 SEMINARY STUDIES 53 (SPRING 2015) on words not known interrupts the reading experience more substantially than moving one’s eyes quickly to the apparatus and back. Third, annotating one’s Hebrew Bible with pen or pencil allows for a more efficient ownership of the Biblical Hebrew language and the Hebrew Bible. Fourth, for Hebrew professors and language instructors the BHS Reader’s Edition allows for new ways of testing the skills of Hebrew students. Final examinations can be set up in which no dictionary or grammar is allowed. In case of too much information being given in the apparatus, information can be removed easily in the process of text-copying. In conclusion, the BHS Reader’s Edition is a must for everybody who studied Hebrew for a purpose other than spoiling costly time and mental energies. The challenges that come with this edition can be overcome after some praxis. The BHS Reader’s Edition is able to break the curse that hangs over every Hebrew course into a blessing: Learning Hebrew for the purpose of actually reading Hebrew and studying the Hebrew Bible in a more substantial way.
