Chapter 2: Beginnings of English America, 1607- 1660 English colonists established Jamestown( “sixty miles inland on the the James River”) in order to protect themselves from any Spanish warships. Named specifically for the king of England, although the voyage was not promoted by the king or queen/ government, but was funded by the Virginia Company. The Virginia Company was more intrigued in exploiting the land’s natural resources than establishing a society.

Prior to humanism, the population lived underneath the feudalistic social system. Humanism changed the view of life by promoting the idea that man could choose to use the logic provided by God and that people do not have to dedicate their lives to the church at the expense of happiness.

Arguably the greatest and longest impacting movement brought about by the forward thinkers of the Renaissance was humanism. Humanism was a cultural and intellectual movement that emphasized the human potential to attain excellence through direct study of the literature, art, and civilization of the classical Greek and Roman societies (Merriam-Webster). The scholars and believers in humanism sought to change the course of society away from the narrow pedantry of medieval scholasticism and utilitarianism. Humanism was a basic desire for every citizen to be able to speak with eloquence and read and write with clarity, so that common citizens were capable of engaging in the civic life of their communities (Gray). The movement also emphasized the value of a human being as well as the importance of rational thought rather than blind faith in spiritualism or superstition. It also pushed people to explore human desires and pleasures while also enriching their minds. The influential nature of humanism was far reaching and most notable for its effects on Renaissance art, literature, and philosophy.

This video showed the viewpoints from people of mixed race. It focused on those that are Latino and Black. It can sometimes be a struggle to be Latino and Black. Some feel like they have to choose which race to identify with. They should be able to embrace both races and not be judged. The divide is really caused because of lack of understanding. If more people get to know one another then they will see that different races can identify and gain a connection.

Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary gives several definitions for humanism, a word which made its appearance in 1832. The first is "a devotion to the humanities or the revival of class, individualistic and critical spirit, and emphasis on secular concerns characteristic of the Renaissance." Renaissance is capitalized. Another definition reads as follows: "a doctrine, attitude, or

The first and most important thing is that all people are created equal and deserve to be treated with respect. This is something I have always known, but I loved seeing it affirmed in the video. I was also very intrigued by the differences in the scores the children earned when they were the favored group versus when they were discriminated against. I love psychology, and it was fascinating that by simply being told that they were better or that they were worse than the other kids affected their test scores. I also learned that it is easy to say all the right things, but actions speak louder than words. You may say that you believe all people are equal, but it is very important that your actions prove that as well. I am sure that everyone does things, even subconsciously, that are not congruent with what we say we believe. A scene I think I will remember a month from now is the experiment with the adults. It was very interesting to see how the different people responded to the experiment and the thoughts that they expressed

Humanism is a way of life that revolves around the interests of people. It stresses human worth and building up self-realization. Humanism was developed in Greece and Rome, and is generally due to philosophy and current literary works during 1400-1650. It is termed "Classical Humanism" because it was born during that time period. Classical Humanism had an impact during the Renaissance Era.

The video goes into depth about proving that race is only skin deep, and that there is no biological explanation for it. It talks about many analysis that were done on African Americans to prove their physical differences against Caucasians such as analysis on their, hands, feet, legs etc. The video goes at great length to show that we are all genetically similar, but we focus on physical appearances to separate us into groups. The students in the video used DNA analysis and assumed that they would all have genetic similarities with those who look similar to them, when in reality Gorgeous was more similar to her white classmate than her black classmate. The video describes how there is simply no way to prove race biologically, and that superiors enforced race to create an inferior group.

Our society’s perception of race is a disturbing reality that is selfish in its every attempt to keep many at a disadvantage, those being the lesser, undermined races. Americans live under this myth that differences in our biological makeup exist to show a division from where African Americans stand inferior to whites. In the video, “Race: The Power of An Allusion,” highlights many ridiculous points and shows how desperate others are becoming to cut off any relations to African Americans.

“I want kids of this generation to see that everything is cool, that there 's some kind of unity in hip-hop. We all found something that 's really important to us, and music is all we 've really got” – Missy Elliot. Hip-Hop is a cultural movement and popular genre of music that emerged during the early 1970 's by working class Black youths in New York City. The cultural movement has rapidly expanded across different countries and ethnicities over the years, becoming one of the few markers that define a generation. Hip-Hop can be seen as “the fundamental matrix of self-expression for this whole generation” (Katz & Smith, 1993). Through music, itself, artists can express their feelings towards different events or social changes that they’ve see or have experienced in their lives. According to Frith (1986), this perspective towards writing music is similar to Mooney’s argument that popular song lyrics is a reflection of what’s missing or needed at their time, giving us a trace of America’s ‘mood’ throughout history. In return, music artists captivate the minds of people among various backgrounds who use these relatable music lyrics as a source of empowerment or as an expression of their own thoughts. While some music artists create music to uplift their audience by giving them a sense of freedom, other artists create music that separates their audience by dehumanizing one group and giving power to the other.

4, pp. 69 ff.), "Humanism recognizes the value and dignity of man and makes him the measure of all things or somehow takes human nature, its limits, or its interests as its theme."

Encarta Dictionary says that Humanism is a system of thought that centers on human beings and their values, capacities and worth. Encarta also goes on the say that, in philosophy, humanism is an attitude that emphasizes the dignity and worth of an individual. A basic premise of humanism is that people are rational beings who possess within themselves the capacity for truth and goodness. I see myself as a being a humanist through everyday life. I always try to see the good in a person when he/she makes me angry or sad, and say I to myself that maybe that person has had a bad day and living life is difficult at the moment. Socrates was even an early humanist of sorts. He can be quoted as saying, "to know the good is to do the

The individual’s role in society dramatically changed following the introduction of humanism. The idea that was depicted is still heavily important today and still holds strong within society. Humanism brought forward the thought that everyone is important and the concept of individuality. Humanism created the notion that instead of being part of a whole, everyone is unique. Before this introduction, most just thought about their actions and what consequences it had in the afterlife; Whether that be going to heaven or hell. Following the emergence of humanism, people started to think more about the present, encouraging education in humanity, the study of literature and enhancement of art – all this expanded an individual’s outlook on life and in turn allowed for the development of personal success.
