Even though racism and practices of racial discrimination had been banned in the 1960s after the mass protests and the changes to the laws that banned racial discrimination institutionally. The society has made progress towards ensuring that there is no discrimination against people based on the color of their skin. However, there are still instances of racism today that point to the important cultural and perception problems that have to be addressed. Even though racism has been banned institutionally since the 1960s, America today still suffers from cases of racial discrimination. Prior to the Civil Rights Movement, America was a segregated country with separate spaces dedicated to people with white and black skin. According to Delvin (2021), there are still beliefs and unconscious biases against the back Americans affecting society today. For example, the author refers to research showing that white people tend to move to different neighborhoods or newly built suburbs if their current residency area’s inhabitants are people of color. According to Delvin (2021), “when a neighborhood becomes 20 percent people of color, white people move away” (para. 5). This affects the public school’s funding, which is derived from property tax and results in poorer education for people of color. Hence, the system of school funding is flawed because it does not allow the people of color residing in underprivileged communities to get a good and quality education. The underlying issues with the legal and tax system that affect the funding of the public schools lead to the so-called “school to prison pipeline.” This is a phenomenon Delvin (2021) uses to describe the children of color who engage in crime early on in their lives because of their environment and inability to get proper education that would provide them with a decent job in the future. Hence, these children engage in crime and often go to prison, unable to change their lives for the better. Delvin (2021) notes that statistically, the predominant majority of people in prisons or juvenile detention centers have low reading skills and are school dropouts. This shows an institutional problem that persists to exist in modern-day America since people of color who were born in underprivileged communities do not get a chance to receive a good education and escape the road leading them to prison. The biases and barriers for the black people exist not only within the education system but with other state-led agencies as well. For example, black people are often arrested and incarcerated for crimes that other races do not get prosecuted for, such as drug possession (Devin, 2021). These statistics take into consideration the number of possession cases and the action that the justice system agents take. These nonviolent offenses lead to a circle of imprisonment, crime, and poverty for the black population. Moreover, this bias seems to be implicit since, with these offenses, people of all races should be treated equally, but black people are more often prosecuted. In summary, this paper examines the racism that continues to exist in modern-day America. Although the Ci
Thesis Statement A man is not as complicated as he actually appears, all he needs is to feel secure and to have the feeling that he can believe in his woman totally. What does a man want? A man loves looking out for his women, to the point that he can pamper his manliness, just the same way he looks up to women who appear confident and strong, emotionally. When a woman runs to her man when encountered with problems every now and then, the man might show sympathy and even offer a shoulder to cry on, but this does not last for long. It is good when the woman shares her problems with the man and together they work on solving it, however, it is important for the woman to know when it is too much, as it is due to this reason that many relationships fail. Thus, when a woman learns to solve problems by herself it makes her man proud of her (Lewis 59). In addition, just like women, a man loves to be looked after. A wife or a girlfriend should know that her man’s mother, looks at him like her baby. The man can deny it as much as he can, however, he loves it when his mother is around, and when he looks for a girlfriend or a wife, he looks for one that has the same, or almost the same qualities like those of her mother. That is the reason some men are referred to as, ‘mamma’s boy’ (Barker 85). A man also enjoys it when his woman balances pampering him with competition and excitement. Furthermore, it is hard for a man to guess what his woman wants. This is because the levels of intuition in him are not the same as those of the woman (Geraldo 27). It is then advisable for a woman to tell her man what she is thinking as opposed to letting him discover all by himself. It might never come to that, and so the woman should do it to avoid feeling miserable. Regardless of his intuition being poor, a man knows it when his woman is manipulating or controlling him (Geraldo 27). When a woman resorts to manipulative and controlling games, her man usually starts blocking his feelings or sometimes hides them. This most of the time causes violent explosions or emotional breakdowns. In order to be happy and maintain happiness in a man when in a relationship, the woman should be considerate and honest. When respected, a majority of men are capable of being amazing individuals. Moreover, a man always needs his space. It is good to respect that. A woman should give his man enough space to breathe as well as do the ‘ things that guys do.’ It is good to let him indulge with his boys during his night outs. Ultimately, if he is in a relationship that is secure, he will all the time long for his woman’s comfort and snuggle, and will desire to go back home to her. Men and women are from different planets, and this may be the reason why many relationships work. A man and a woman can be compared to two lines, that despite being straight, intersect somewhere at the end. One cannot do with the other, and one cannot do without the other. Indeed, this can be consid
Introduction In marketing, an organization should always ensure that the products or services offered meet the needs of the customers. A product has to benefit the customer for the customer to be satisfied (Pulizzi, 2014). While one of the aims of a business organization should be to satisfy the customers, making profits should be the bottom line. In other words, marketing needs to have a win-win idea, whereby the customer benefits and the organization makes its profits at the same time. Whatever the organization sells, whatever features are on the products, the packaging used, the warranty, as well as other services, should be beneficial to the customer (Kazmi, 2014).

History scholars acknowledge the first industrial revolution began in Great Britain in the second half of the eighteenth century (1760) and lasted to some time between 1820 and 1840, bringing immense transformation of the economy by shifting production from hand-manufacturing into mechanized manufacturing (Musson & Robinson, 1969). This transformation dramatically changed every aspect of human life and led to new social, economic and political ideologies. The present paper describes the societal, political, geographic and economic impacts of the first industrial revolution. It is important to note that the description will sample some work and lives of key members of the Lunar Society, a provincial scientific society, because the society occupies an exceptional place in the history of the industrial revolution as its members were involved in actively creating an intersection between pure science and advancing technology to spur and sustain the revolution (Musson & Robinson, 1969). On the social front, it can be argued that the first industrial revolution not only triggered rapid urbanization, harsh labour conditions, child labour and industrial pollution which threatened both human health and the natural world, but the working class became increasingly alienated due to city life, crime levels soared, and the social fabric that used to hold people together in the rural areas nearly melted down (Musson & Robinson, 1969). But these are only the negatives. It can be argued that the scientific work of Lunar Society members Samuel Galton, Jr. (ornithology and optics) Jonathan Stokes (physician and botanist) and James Keir (chemist, geologist, chemical manufacturer) brought about processes that gave rise to comprehensive increases in production capability and would affect all societal needs, including food production, medicine, and clothing (Schofield, 1957). The political front was impacted through: colonization of Asia and Africa by Great Britain to look for raw materials to feed the mounting industries; division of the world into two categories – the developed and the underdeveloped world; Europeanization of other countries as Europeans went across oceans to settle in foreign countries; enactment of several reform laws and Acts, including the enactment of Factory Laws in Great Britain to guarantee the health and safety of workers, and; the development of strong trade union movements to represent the needs and concerns of workers (Yavuz n.d.). Lunar Society member Thomas Day (politics and metaphysics) was influential in charting the political course of Great Britain immediately after the initiation of the industrial revolution (Schofield, 1957). The geographic impacts are best illuminated by the rapid population explosion immediately after the initiation of the industrial revolution, which saw an overuse of scarce natural and man-made resources (e.g., land, energy, forests etc) and increased environmental pollution du
In “Categories of the Orientation and Organization of Action”, Talcott Parsons and Edwards Shils discuss the four main points related to the conceptualization of behavior that is developed within the frameworks of the theory of action. In addition, they argue that behavior is a ‘regulated expenditure of energy’ that appears to be very important for a better understanding of the nature of behavior (Parsons, & Shils, n. d., p. 66). In the following paper, some of the interesting ideas that can be found in Parsons and Shils’ work will be addressed in terms of their connections with the other readings of the course. First, speaking about the valuable findings made by Parsons and Shils, the main points of their work should be addressed. In their paper, they argue that:  1. behavior is oriented to achieve particular goals that are important for an individual;  2. behavior may be observed in concrete situations;  3. behavior is regulated by norms and standards,  4. behavior is always connected with an outflow of energy, efforts, motivation (Parsons, & Shils, n. d.). In addition, the authors explain the relationship between behavior and action, and provide a number of illustrations of when the behavior of an individual can be called ‘action’. One more important point of their argument is in explaining the nature of orientation as the attitude of the one who exercises the action to this particular action and the objects that are bound with the action. Critically reflecting on Parsons and Shils’ findings, and their value, I should say that I am especially interested in their practical explanation of the theory of action. To help their audience grasp the depths of their ideas, the authors offer a number of effective examples. One of them is the example of a fisher and his actions that Parsons and Shils apply to explain their four-point theory of behavior. They say that (1) when the fisher goes to the destination where he is planning to fish, his behavior has a final goal which is in getting to the place of his activity; (2) the behavior of this man can be observed in a particular situation including the situation on the road, in the car, in the place of his destination, and so on; (3) the fisher’s behavior is regulated by certain standards, and in this case, these are the standards established by his intellectual power; and (4) the fisher’s behavior is connected to the outflow of his strength and energy because when he collects his things, puts them to the car, drives the car, and starts fishing, his inner recourses are spent. By means of meditating on this effective example, I was able to see the application of the theory described by the authors in their work. Speaking about the connection of the given reading with the other course readings, I should say that they are quite clear. Earlier, the theory of action was introduced in the other reading
This section is an introduction into the life of Donald Winnicott. This involves the circumstances under which he was born, his receiving of an education, and how he eventually ended up in medical school. There is also an exploration of his role in the pediatric studies, and the professional with whom he interacted with in his daily work. Accomplishments This is an evaluation of the achievements of Donald Winnicott in his work as a psycho-analytical expert, and how his findings have enabled the advancement of the psychiatry filed, as well as a better understanding of the personality development. Winnicott’s theories This is an exploratory study of such theories the theory of objectivity, the theory of aggression, true and false self, and transition space theory, among others. Winnicott’s contribution to the area of personality development: an investigation into the role that Winnicott’s theories have played in enabling a better understanding of personalities, as well as to aid counselors and therapists to better understand their patients. The life history of Donald Winnicott Born Donald Woods Winnicott in April 7 1896, Winnicott was the only son, and a last child of his merchant father, who had also served as a Plymouth mayor. Coming from a middle class family in Plymouth, England Winnicott first started training as a medical doctor, where he specialized as a pediatrician (Hazell, 1996). During this time, the First World War was in progress Winnicott served as a medical probationer. Upon completing his studies, he was posted at a children’s hospital in Paddington Green, London in 1923. (Winnicott, 1960). The same year, he wed and also initiated a personality analysis with James Strachey, who happened to have been Freud’s English translator. Four years later, he joined psycho-analytical society of England, eventually qualifying in 1935, as a child analyst (Winnicott, 1969). Through the years, Winnicott made numerous analyses related to child psychology, with the help of such child analysts as Melanie Klein and Joan Riviere. Winnicott shared with the Melanie Klein the belief that psychic health was indeed of paramount importance during the first year of the life of a child (Winnicott 1969). However, this same view was in sharp contrast to that shared by Freud’s daughter, Anna had moved to London in 1938, following the persecution of the Nazis in Austria. She was also a qualified child psychology. Owing to these two factions of child psychologists, the psycho-analytical society of Britain was at this time faced with an imminent collapse. However, they were later to reach a compromise when the Second World War came to an end in 1945. This was made possible by way of the establishment of a middle group. It is this third group that Winnicott later identified with (Winnicott, 1996). Winnicott, through his numerous interactions with the children, reflected on the p
