Diversity In Chicago

All of this contributed to me joining the marching band, beginning in eighth grade, which has taken over my life now, in the best way possible and given me a defined place. It’s nice to be a part of something like

In Common hour, we learned about Diversity, Community, & Social Justice. We learned that Diversity and Social Identity are interconnected, one cannot exist without the other. Social Identity is one aspect of Diversity, while Diversity is based upon Social Identity. However, both of these concepts depend on whether you experience Privilege and Oppression. Like Diversity and Social Identity, Privilege and Oppression cannot exist without the other. On the other hand, it’s not necessarily good that Privilege can only exist because of Oppression because people, regardless of their own personal accomplishments, are judged and discriminated by others.

A number of reports from the Saint Louis Globe-Democrat and Saint Louis Post-Dispatch showed that St. Louis city, specifically the areas near Lafayette Park, were struggling (Wiitsruck 2015). According to “The Saint Louis Post-Dispatch,

This week’s topic of California becoming such a diverse powerhouse in the U.S and also how California being such a diverse state plays an important role in the U.S. government”. California is a hybrid democracy which means there are two types of democracies within California’s government. Representative means that we elect of political officials that best represents our interests. This also happens on a federal level which is why we have various elections throughout the years that allows us to vote for who we want in Congress, also on who we want to be our president. Direct Democracy gives power to the people in California allowing us to have a voice in how we want to see our state government run California (The Basics, 3:33). These two democracies

In Ohio there many different thing that makes us different as state. We said to be the most boring and we don’t have many interesting artifacts, but I think that there are many different things that you can find interesting in Ohio. There are many different historical regions in Ohio that a lot of people here don’t know about that makes us so different each city in Ohio have a different way of life because our ancestors were so different. This causes something as simple as dialect to be different considering how close to the south or how close you are to the north.

Chicago is portrayed as a diverse city, especially in downtown Chicago. However, Chicago is, in fact, a segregated city. On the Northside of Chicago, the population is predominantly white, while on the South and West Side the population is made up of Hispanics and African Americans. To begin, living on the South and West Sides, someone is more likely to eat unhealthily. For example, on the Northside someone will be able to find grocery stores that have organic food, unlike on the South Side, where stores that sell organic food are limited; this difference represents health disparities. Health disparities can be defined as different people in certain neighborhoods do not get the same health benefits as other neighborhoods. The biggest threat to social justice in Chicago are health disparities, especially in the South and West Sides of town because people who are living there are more prone to diseases, people are prevented from eating healthily, and they are prevented from getting simple exercise.

Are State Senate district 12, and State Assembly districts 24 and 25 racial gerrymanders prohibited by the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause with race as a predominant factor in redistricting?

Diversity exists all across the United States. It is defined as the state of having people who are different races or who have different cultures in a group or organization, according to Merriam-Webster dictionary. Along with the ever-growing diversity in America, brings along intercultural communication. Intercultural communication can be defined as a situated communication between individuals or groups of different linguistic and cultural origins. Due to the limitless amounts of diversity and intercultural communication across the United States, misunderstandings and clashes between cultures are bound to occur. These clashes have been as extreme to be used to explain violence and crime not only in the United States, but also throughout our entire nation. On the other end, these cultural clashes can be so personal in our everyday lives because of our expectations of a certain behavior coming from our own cultural backgrounds, as many others have very different cultural backgrounds and expectations of us.

Being raised in California has allowed me to experience and educate myself on diverse backgrounds, cultures, and lifestyles. California is a melting pot, a beautiful serenity of different people. As a social worker, we will have to work with a diverse range of clients and remove any bias to work effectively. I was raised into a family of different ethnicities, religion, and political beliefs. Though we have our differences, we can still come together to celebrate our lives. Also, as an LGBT person, I feel that I should be more open to diversity because many others have opened themselves to the community over the last couple of years. We do not need to understand fully the differences of others. We need to strive to open our minds up to things

In recent years and over the course of the past fifty year history dating back to the civil rights movement of the 1960’s, the city of Chicago has been a center stage for violence, protest, racial clash, and inevitably segregation. Since the days that Martin Luther King Jr. led marches in some of Chicago’s most historic moments, the city’s sizable black population has hardly witnessed an upturn in their quest for equality. In fact, many studies have identified a pattern of poverty, violence, bias, and pre-mature mortality. All of which have led to the systematic oppression of an entire population in one of the nation’s largest cities. As a result, over the course of the past fifty years in Chicago, poverty has expanded, neighborhoods have become

There is a reversed relationship between the diversity and segregation of cities from Silver analysis base on citywide diversity index and integration/segregation index. By looking at the citywide index from Brown University’s American Communities project based on the 2010 Census, the percentage of citywide diversity index in Chicago is 70.3% . It indicates Chicago is the 7th in the most diverse at city level (45.0 % White; 32.9% Black or African American; 5.5% Asian; 28.9% Hispanic or Latino of any race; 13.4% from other race) . It also ranks the top as the most segregated city with -18.6% among the 100 most populous cities. From racial level, we see Chicago is as segregated as its citywide diversity base on mathematically method. From geographic

Individuals throughout history have always identified and associated themselves with community based a variety of attributes such as religious beliefs and ethnicity. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs further supports that being a part of a community is an intrinsic movement that motivates human behaviour, as people feel emotionally stable when they identify themselves as a part of a community. Thus, the building associated with communal identity is often dictated by the growth or decline of the community itself. By examining the evolution of community buildings in relation to the progression of the African American community in the United States of America, it is evident that the psychological human needs have influenced the progression of the buildings.
