Travelling through the heartland of America and into the Canadian North, Cree filmmaker Neil Diamond looks at how the myth of “the Injun” has influenced the world’s understanding – and misunderstanding – of Natives. With clips from hundreds of classic and recent films, and candid interviews with celebrated Native and non-Native directors, writers, actors, and activists including Clint Eastwood, Robbie Robertson, Graham Greene, Adam Beach, and Zacharias Kunuk, Reel Injun traces the evolution of cinema’s depiction of Native people from the silent film era to present day.

  • Transgender Author, Activist Chaz Bono Speaks Out
    Tulane University Transgender author, activist Chaz Bono speaks out April 19, 2013 10:00 AM Carol Schlueter [email protected] It's an exciting time in history for trans-identified people, whose voices are just beginning to be heard, says Red Tremmel, director of the Office for Gender and Sexual Diversity at Tulane. A campus audience will hear about celebrity Chaz Bono's experience as a transgender man when Bono appears in McAlister Auditorium on Monday (April 22) at 7 p.m. Transgender activist and author Chaz Bono will speak on the Tulane uptown campus on Monday (April 22). (Photo from Chaz Bono) Tulane University Campus Programming, a student-run organization, is presenting “An Evening with Author and Activist Chaz Bono.” The only child of entertainers Sonny and Cher, Bono identifies as a transgender man and has taken the name Chaz Bono. His most recent book was the 2011 bestseller Transition: Becoming Who I Was Always Meant to Be. His transition also was detailed in the documentary film Becoming Chaz that debuted in 2011 on the OWN Network. It was nominated for three Emmy Awards. Tremmel is pleased that increasing numbers of trans-identified people are sharing their perspectives. “Though gender diversity has long been part of the social fabric of the United States, it has often remained quite invisible,” Tremmel says. National data, he adds, has shown that LGBTQ youth of color are disproportionately targeted by law enforcement, more likely to be arrested and report being frequently profiled and treated unfairly by the police and other officials. “This is a pressing issue," he says.

  • We Are New Hampshire
    WE ARE NEW HAMPSHIRE Transgender Lives in the Granite State any people have a vague sense of what it means to be M transgender. Perhaps they recently saw Chaz Bono perform on Transgender Lives in the Granite State Dancing with the Stars, or they remember Christine Jorgensen. But transgender people come from all backgrounds, and no individual can convey the full diversity of the transgender community—either here in New Hampshire or across the country. This book is meant to capture some of the many stories of transgender individuals and their loved ones living in New Hampshire. You will meet people like Megan, who overcame tremendous odds to become the person she is today; Drew, who is a happier person after coming to terms with his transgender identity; and Muriel, a mom who just wants her transgender son to be loved. As you read these stories, one of the themes that emerges is the seriousness with which people have made the difficult decision to transition from their birth gender and live in their affirmed gender. Given the extreme, disproportionate discrimination and violence transgender people face, and the lack of legal protections in most of the country—including New Hampshire—in employment, housing, and public accommodations, the decision to change genders is not one any individual takes lightly. In fact, pervasive discrimination makes transgender individuals much more likely to fall into poverty than the general population, despite higher levels of education. At the same time, many of these stories make clear that when given the same opportunities to work, live and participate in society, transgender individuals are capable of extraordinary success and contribution to society.

  • 11 Ways to Be a Great Trans* Ally
    11 Ways To Be A Great Trans* Ally bustle.com/articles/76762-11-ways-to-be-a-trans-ally-according-to-transgender-people-themselves News Christopher Polk/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images By JR Thorpe April 24, 2015 It's 2015, and transgender people are finally in the showbiz and political spotlight. Laverne Cox of Orange Is The New Black is winning acting and activism awards left and right and proudly posing naked, and Poland's 2015 presidential race will have its first transgender candidate, Anna Grodska. But, as always seems to be the case when transgender people get into the news, there are also deeply tragic stories: transgender 17-year-old Leela Alcorn's suicide in 2014, and the murder of at least seven transgender women in the U.S. in 2015 alone. As transgender people become more visible, so do their struggles — and, hopefully, the amount of straight people wanting to become trans allies grows. So what is a trans ally? An ally in general, if you take the definition of UC Berkeley's Gender Equity Unit, is "someone who advocates for and supports members of a community other than their own; reaching across differences to achieve mutual goals." Transgender allies are non-trans people whose support is focussed on the trans community (though it doesn't have to be only that; there's room for you to be an ally for other causes too!). With tips drawn from transgender people themselves, organizations like GLAAD and Straight For Equality, and transgender associations across American college campuses, here is your definitive starting guide to beginning a journey as a transgender ally.

Barry* The Americans with DisabilitiesAct (ADA) does not protect everyone. It notably excludes people with Gender Identity Disorder (GID), an impair- ment involving the misalignment between one's anatomy and gender identity. Many would say this is as it should be - gender nonconforming people are not impaired and so they should not be covered by disability law. But this argument misapprehends the reason that GID was excluded from the ADA in the first place. GID was excluded from the ADA because, in 1989, a small handful of senators believed that gender nonconformity - like pedophilia, pyromania, and kleptomania -was morally harmful to the community.

  • A STUDY of MODERN MOBILE TABLETS by Jordan Kahtava A
    A STUDY OF MODERN MOBILE TABLETS By Jordan Kahtava A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Bachelor of Computer Science Algoma University Gerry Davies, Thesis Advisor April 14th, 2016 A Study of Modern Mobile Tablets - 1 Abstract Mobile tablets have begun playing a larger role in mobile computing because of their portability. To gather an understanding of what mobile computers can currently accomplish Microsoft and Apple tablets were examined. In general this topic is very broad and hard to research because of the number of mobile devices and tablets. Examining this document should provide detailed insight into mobile tablets and their hardware, operating systems, and programming environment. Any developer can use the information to develop, publish, and setup the appropriate development environments for either Apple or Microsoft. The Incremental waterfall methodology was used to develop two applications that utilize the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Inclinometer/Attitude sensors. In addition extensive research was conducted and combined to outline how applications can be published and the rules associated with each application store. The Apple application used Xcode and Objective-C while the Microsoft application used Visual Studio 2012, C-Sharp, and XAML. It was determined that developing for Apple is significantly easier because of the extensive documentation and examples available. In addition Apple’s IDE Xcode can be used to develop, design, test, and publish applications without the need for other programs. It is hard to find easily understandable documentation from Microsoft regarding a particular operating system. Visual Studio 2012 or later must be used to develop Microsoft Store applications.
