INTRODUCTION' A basic policy of the Board of Education of the RiversideUnified School District is to provide a school system which effectively releases the full learning potential of everystudent. In order to accomplish such a worthy goal, our systemand the entire community which it serves must clearly recognkle'and appreciate. the individual differences of people. Such differences must be seen as positive and powerful resources which cahbe called upon to lend motivation and depth to learningand, subse- quently, to our community and society.' One such resource, among many, is the richencl.:Colorful heritage of our Americans of Mexican descent. Riverside, in paticular, , 4, and the Southwest, in general, are fortunate in the extentof "contribution and impact of such citizens. Our language,.history, culture, life style, and many other facets of ourlives have been strongly influenced by our Mexican heritage. Some elements of this heritage are already includedin our educa- tional processes. Both the opportunity and the need to incorporate much more is evident. The accompanying Study Guideline offers a rich resourcefor taking the next step. Not only will this guide furnish aspecific.e60l . for teaching, but it'may well serve as a model forbuilding new, additional learning steps. Our students, as well as our schools andcommunities, can only be the better for such efforts. Each of us will groW'one more step in both self-respect and appreciation for each other.

  • 'Country', 'Land', 'Nation': Key Anglo English Words for Talking and Thinking About People in Places
    8 ‘Country’, ‘land’, ‘nation’: Key Anglo English words for talking and thinking about people in places Cliff Goddard Griffith University, Australia [email protected] Abstract The importance of the words ‘country’, ‘land’ and ‘nation’, and their derivatives, in Anglophone public and political discourses is obvious. Indeed, it would be no exaggeration to say that without the support of words like these, discourses of nationalism, patriotism, immigration, international affairs, land rights, and post/anti- colonialism would be literally impossible. This is a corpus-assisted, lexical-semantic study of the English words ‘country’, ‘land’ and ‘nation’, using the NSM technique of paraphrase in terms of simple, cross- translatable words (Goddard & Wierzbicka 2014). It builds on Anna Wierzbicka’s (1997) seminal study of “homeland” and related concepts in European languages, as well as more recent NSM works (e.g. Bromhead 2011, 2018; Levisen & Waters 2017) that have explored ways in which discursively powerful words encapsulate historically and culturally contingent assumptions about relationships between people and places. The primary focus is on conceptual analysis, lexical polysemy, phraseology and discursive formation in mainstream Anglo English, but the study also touches on one specifically Australian phenomenon, which is the use of ‘country’ in a distinctive sense which originated in Aboriginal English, e.g. in expressions like ‘my grandfather’s country’ and ‘looking after country’. This highlights how Anglo English words can be semantically “re-purposed” in postcolonial and anti-colonial discourses. Keywords: lexical semantics, NSM, ‘nation’ concept, Anglo English, Australian English, Aboriginal English. 1. Orientation and methodology The importance of the words country, land and nation, and their derivatives, in Anglophone public and political discourses is obvious.

  • First Principles Foundational Concepts to Guide Politics and Policy
    FIRST PRINCIPLES FOUNDATIONAL CONCEPTS TO GUIDE POLITICS AND POLICY NO. 65 | DECEMBER 31, 2017 The Limits and Dangers of Civil Disobedience: The Case of Martin Luther King, Jr. Peter C. Myers Abstract At the heart of the American character is a seeming paradox: America is a republic of laws, yet it has a long tra- dition of civil disobedience. Martin Luther King, Jr., the most renowned advocate of civil disobedience, argued that civil disobedience is not lawlessness but instead a higher form of lawfulness, designed to bring positive or man-made law into conformity with higher law—natural or divine law. As King’s own legacy reveals, however, civil disobedience is complicated in its theoretical basis and problematic in its practical effects. It is justifiable, in exceptional circumstances, by the first principles of free, constitutional government, but it is dangerous in that it poses a threat to the rule of law. The judgment as to when circumstances warrant, along with the practice of civil disobedience itself, must be governed by the most careful prudential regulation. To gain our bearings amid today’s protests, characterized more by disruption and coercion than persuasion, we should look beyond contem- porary justifications and return to the best of King’s thinking—and beyond King, to the understanding of civil disobedience grounded in America’s first principles. Introduction own assistance, would shortly thereafter declare to At the heart of the American character, evident be revolutionary and justified by a law higher than since our nation’s birth, is a seeming paradox: Amer- any human law.1 Acutely aware of the turbulent his- icans take pride in our self-image as a republic of tory of republics,2 America’s revolutionary Found- laws and no less pride in our propensity toward righ- ers hoped that Americans would prove exceptional teous disobedience.

  • Anglo-Saxon and Scots Invaders
    Anglo-Saxon and Scots Invaders By around 410AD, the last of the Romans had left Britain to go back to Rome and England was left to look after itself for the first time in about 400 years. Emperor Honorius told the people to fight the Picts, Scots and Saxons who were attacking them, but the Brits were not good fighters. The Scots, who came from Ireland, invaded and took land in Scotland. The Scots split Scotland into 4 separate places that were named Dal Riata, Pictland, Strathclyde and Bernicia. The Picts (the people already living in Scotland) and the Scots were always trying to get into England. It was hard for the people in England to fight them off without help from the Romans. The Picts and Scots are said to have jumped over Hadrian’s Wall, killing everyone in their way. The British king found it hard to get his men to stop the Picts and Scots. He was worried they would take over in England because they were excellent fighters. Then he had an idea how he could keep the Picts and Scots out. He asked two brothers called Hengest and Horsa from Jutland to come and fight for him and keep England safe from the Picts and Scots. Hengest and Horsa did help to keep the Picts and Scots out, but they liked England and they wanted to stay. They knew that the people in England were not strong fighters so they would be easy to beat. Hengest and Horsa brought more men to fight for England and over time they won.

Axelrod The role men and women play in history can be viewed from two perspec­ tives. Either men determine history by their actions or history determines the actions of men. At times a combination of the two may take place. The relationship of Rabbi Henry Cohen 0863-1952) of Galveston and the Galves­ ton Immigration Movement, often called the Galveston Plan, was a case of combining these two historical perspectives. The necessity of a nation and a religious group to change its immigration patterns coupled with the extra­ ordinary humanitarian efforts of a great man created the product of an innova­ tive, well-planned program. This paper will examine the workings of the Galveston Plan and the role Henry Cohen played in making that plan a partial success.

    July 2005 Volume 36, Issue 3 Court Rules: Historic Designation of Coronado Belt Line Unlawfully Set Aside by City Council SUSAN BRANDT HAWLEY The San Diego Historical Resources Board has declared after careful review that the portion of the Coronado Belt Line railway located in San Diego is a historic site. At the request of the MTDB and Councilmember Ralph Inzunza, the City Council overturned the Board’s desig- nation in 2004 against the recommendations of City staff and the City Manager, with Councilmember Donna Frye as the sole dissenting vote. Save Our Heritage Organisa- tion (SOHO) sued the City because, as City staff pointed out, there was no legal basis to overturn the historic status. (San Diego Superior Court Case GIC837743.) On July 15th, San Diego Superior Court Judge Ronald S. Prager ruled in favor of SOHO, agreeing that the City acted unlawfully and granting a peremptory writ requir- ing the City to set aside its action. (See ruling at www.sandiego.courts.ca.gov.) Photo/Bruce Coons The Coronado Belt Line looped around the San Diego coastline and up the Silver Strand to Coronado as part of the Spreckels railroad empire, contributing to San Diego’s growth and vitality as it linked the City with the harbor and South Bay communities. From 1888 until the mid-20th century, the Belt Line regularly transported residents, visitors, World War I and II military shipments, agricultural products, building materials, and commer- cial and industrial wares through the region. SOHO Executive Director Bruce Coons said, “This is an important precedent proving that the City Council can not arbitrarily overturn historic designations just because they want to approve some ill-advised development scheme.

Such resources provide information on scientific progress, environmental adaptations, group ideology, or other human advancements. This section of the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) evaluates the potential for implementation of the San Marino High School Michael White Adobe project to impact cultural resources in the City of San Marino. The analysis in this section is based, in part, upon the following information: • Michael White Adobe Historic Resources Technical Report, Chattel Architecture, Planning, and Preservation, August 4, 2009. This study is included in Appendix D of this Draft EIR. 5.1.1 Regulatory Background National Historic Preservation Act Section 106 (Protection of Historic Properties) of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (NHPA) requires federal agencies to take into account the effects of their undertakings on historic properties.

In eighteenth-century France, conceptions of what differentiates humans from animals and machines became a sustained topic of interest in spaces that were public and private, recreational and intellectual. This dissertation argues that eighteenth-century harpsichords were porous sites where performers, composers, artisans, academics, and pedagogues negotiated the limits of these fragile boundaries. French harpsichords are at the center of my dissertation because they embodied an experimental collision of animal parts and other biomatter, complex machinery, and visual and musical performance. Taken together, I consider the ways that instruments had social import apart from sound production alone, expanding the definition of ii “instrument” beyond traditional organological studies of style in craftsmanship and musical aesthetics.
