Olivia Young May 15, 2019 Young, 1 INTRODUCTION This paper aims to answer the question, what role has social media played in violence perpetrated by Incels? Incels, or involuntary celibates, are members of a misogynistic online subculture that define themselves as unable to find sexual partners. Incels feel hatred for women and sexually active males stemming from their belief that women are required to give sex to them, and that they have been denied this right by women who choose alpha males over them.

  • And the Celebration of Queer Youth at One US
    “Misfits” and the Celebration of Queer Youth at one U.S. High School: Implications for Students, Educators, and Communities Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Nathan N. Taylor, M.A., M.Ed. College of Education and Human Ecology The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Binaya Subedi, Advisor Dr. Cynthia Tyson Dr. Mollie Blackburn ii Copyright by Nathan Neil Taylor 2012 iii Abstract This dissertation produces a reading of one U.S. high school’s approach to create an educational environment for its students that is inclusive and free of domination. This qualitative study, supported by queer theory and intersectionality, explores the pedagogical practices and school policies that the school uses to inform its model of inclusion. The study expands on the projects of queer theory and intersectionality by focusing on homonormativity, an appendage of heteronormativity, and the complication of identity categories and their usefulness in an educational setting. Specifically, I sought to investigate how the school’s model of inclusion promotes an inclusive, safe space for its students. How the school’s strategies of policing, resistance, and queering occur within this model of inclusion. And, how this model of inclusion acquiesce to and contests existing systems of oppression. The research occurred in a small charter school located in an urban, Midwestern city. My research suggests that the high school adopted policies and practices that build on the students’ identities and challenges the normative and material gaze of the larger society.

  • Color-Conscious Multicultural Mindfulness (Ccmm): an Investigation of Counseling Students and Pre-Licensed Counselors
    COLOR-CONSCIOUS MULTICULTURAL MINDFULNESS (CCMM): AN INVESTIGATION OF COUNSELING STUDENTS AND PRE-LICENSED COUNSELORS By EMILIE AYN LENES A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2018 © 2018 Emilie Ayn Lenes Dedicated to you, the reader in this moment right now. May we evoke curiosity and compassion with one another. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Synchronicity and grace have guided my way, and I thank the divinely orchestrated fabric that somehow enabled this dissertation to come to completion. Despite all the literature I have read, and the profound education that I have received from an incalculable number of exceptional people, I know that I still have many areas of development. I am on a lifelong journey of dismantling my own social conditioning. Our American society has been built upon racist roots and oppressive systems that advantage some groups of people and marginalize others. Awareness of this has given me a sense of ethical responsibility to be on a collective team of people who are working towards tikkun olam. This dissertation has drawn upon interactions throughout my lifetime, but especially over the past decade at the PACE Center for Girls. Individual and group conversations continuously enlighten me, as well as participation in multicultural and/or mindfulness conferences and trainings over the years. I acknowledge those whose insights have been integrated on a level beyond my ability to always remember precise attributions. Undoubtedly, there is someone who may be reading this right now, who contributed in some way(s) that I neglect to mention.

COMMENTS POLITICAL CORRECTNESS ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES: FREEDOM OF SPEECH V. DOING THE POLITICALLY CORRECT THING Craig B. Anderson I. INTRODUCTION REEDOM of speech is one of the most important rights guaranteed to all American citizens. Set forth in the First Amendment, the Con- stitution states "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the free- dom of speech."' One of the crucial guarantees allowing the free expression of diverse and challenging ideas, the right to free speech is under attack at college campuses throughout the United States. This assault comes in the form of political correctness, 2 a form of intellectual conformity marked by enforcement through intimidation, called by some a kind of liberal Mc- Carthyism. 3 Following are just a few examples of how political correctness manifests itself on university campuses across the country. At Brown University, a fraternity sent out invitations for a South of the Border party, depicting a man sleeping through a siesta under a big som- brero.4 After a student complained that such an invitation showed insensi- 5 tivity to Mexicans, the Greek council banned all ethnic theme parties.

  • Lookism: the New Frontier of Employment Discrimination?
    research note Journal of Industrial Relations © Industrial Relations Society of Australia SAGE Publications Ltd, Los Angeles, London, New Delhi, Singapore and Washington DC ISSN 0022-1856, 51(1) 131–136 [DOI: 10.1177/0022185608096808] Lookism: The New Frontier of Employment Discrimination? Chris Warhurst University of Strathclyde, UK Diane van den Broek University of Sydney, Australia Richard Hall University of Sydney, Australia Dennis Nickson University of Strathclyde, UK Introduction If you’re ugly, short or rude, your career prospects in the Chinese navy don’t look like plain sailing. Officials say anyone joining the service in 2006 must be good-looking, tall and polite. (BBC News, 2006) The reason that Chinese navy sailors must be good looking and well-man- nered, according to a navy spokesman, is that, as China opens up to the world and its navy vessels visit and engage in joint exercises with other countries, its sailors become representatives of China. Beyond the media’s attention-grab- bing headlines, there is now established academic research from the USA and UK, as well as some emerging indications from Australia, highlighting links between an individual’s looks and his or her pay and employment prospects. Contact address: Chris Warhurst, Department of Human Resource Management, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, G1 1XU, UK. [[email protected]] 131 Journal of Industrial Relations 51(1) The conclusion is stark: employee looks matter. Employers appear to discrimi- nate in favour of people perceived to be better looking or who are perceived to have the ‘right look’ and penalize those perceived as less physically attractive or having the ‘wrong look’.
