B.A. CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 1995 M.A. CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 2002 LEGISLATING SOCIAL JUSTICE POLICY: A CASE STUDY OF SPONSORED LEGISLATION BY BLACK CONGRESSWOMEN DURING THE 108TH CONGRESSIONAL SESSION Committee Chair: Dr. Robert B. DeJanes Dissertation dated December 2012 The focus of this case study examines black congresswomen in the United States during the i08~ Congressional Session and their legislative advocacy for social justice through progressive policies. The questions guiding the research were: RQ1: Did black congresswomen, in the 108th Congressional Session, use the sponsorship of legislation to advocate social justice through progressive policies? RQ2: What was the frequency of issues addressed in the legislation and the top five issues advocated? RQ3: What was the outcome of sponsored legislation? This case study examined 300 pieces of legislation sponsored by black congresswomen during the years of 2003 and 2004. The data collected were coded and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings revealed that black women in Congress almost exclusively sponsor legislation that advocated social justice through 1 progressive policies. Issues that were strongly advocated were in the categories of (1) Civil and Human Rights, (2) Women and Children, (3) Health and Safety, and (4) Education and Labor. 2 LEGISLATING SOCIAL JUSTICE POLICY: A CASE STUDY OF SPONSORED LEGISLATION BY BLACK CONGRESSWOMEN DURING THE 108TH CONGRESSIONAL SESSION A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY AISHA L.

  • The Timeline of African-American History
    THE TIMELINE OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY Presented By: Joseph Campbell In order for you to know your future, you must understand the present. To understand the present, you must learn from the past. African History More than 3000 years before Christ and the Christian era, in a time before the European and Asian Invasions, Arab Expansion, British Colonization and Slavery, Ancient Egypt was the home to 30 Egyptian Dynasties from 2920 BC – 332 BC before finally falling to the Roman Empire. Nubians were the first human race on earth and rulers of the Kingdom of Kush (Nubia). The ancient Egyptians adopted most of the Kushite customs and traditions. Nubians lived in Northern Sudan and Southern Egypt along the Nile River. The Egyptian Pyramids are one of the 7 wonders of the world. Egyptians were Africans and their skin was Black just as that of the Nubians. Once upon a time, Africans were the Kings and Queens of Egypt and Nubia. The Egyptian pyramids were built to be tombs of the Pharaohs while Nubian pyramids were symbols of wealth and stature. The pyramids were aligned with the four corners of the compass in order to reach the heavens and were the influence for the pyramids found in China, Peru, Mexico, Indonesia and the tower of Babel in Iraq. The greatness of Egypt is still being talked about and studied to this day. Be proud of your heritage. Be proud of your history. Be proud of being Black because we are the children of the 1st and greatest civilization that has ever lived.
