I participate in marching and concert band. As for concert band I have participated in it for 3 years, and i have only been in marching band for half a year.I enjoy being in both ensembles because it gives me a chance to make beautiful music and connect with my fellow band members. Most of the reason I’m even at where I am is because of my bad instructor Mr.Barz.

America is a country with many beliefs that seem to be hypocritical, for they appear to not be followed by it’s citizens and government. It is common to hear about this country being a place where everyone is respected and has their own rights. The National Anthem of the United States of America proclaims this country as “The land of the free and the home of the brave.” But it is questionable whether this line is true or not in terms of it’s significance. Much oppression, injustice, and prejudice can be found today towards non-white people and those who are socially “inferior.” By the looks of things, it seems that America has not reached it’s goal of achieving true racial and social equality. There are many realistic examples of the modern United States that show that the country will never achieve such goal. Indeed, one can see these events and conclude that America is not the land of the free, for other groups of people are mistreated for being of another race, or simply for being “inferior” to the eyes of society. Even some famous writings by authors prove that the U.S. will never achieve true racial and social equality. Harper Lee’s novel To Kill A Mockingbird is an example of such proof. In the plotline, a girl named Scout watches how her attorney-father tries to defend a black man against the prejudice of her hometown of Maycomb, Alabama. With this information, one can see how even a fictional story can present the prejudice and injustice

Recently, five players of the USWNT team filed a federal complaint to the United States Soccer Federation for wage discrimination. The women and men’s team both play the same amount yet the men earn more. The USWNT team has had more success on the field than the men's team, winning back-to-back World Cup Championships and obtaining gold medals in the past four Olympics (Brown). The USMNT has only reached the quarterfinals of the World Cup once in the last fifty years (Brown). According to NBC News, the USWNT get paid between $3,600- $4,950 per game, while the USMNT gets paid $6,250- $17,625 (Kassouf). Last year the USWNT made $20 million more in revenue than the USMNT. Another shocking statistic is for a woman to make the World Cup roster,

Discrimination is nothing new to our society or is it something that should be taken lightly and for many decades our Nation has endured many conflicts that have tested the will of Americans over the decades and it is evident that as we have become more diverse so too has our workforce. Although, we are in the twenty first century the goal is to understand why prejudice and discrimination is still so prevalent and how we can do better while trying to bring together our different backgrounds, skills, and experiences still has proven to be an issue that minorities are constantly fighting as they struggle to find there place in society. Through an array of well-educated researchers showing how diversity is nothing new to our society, but if we are to continue to grow and move forward we must be able to understand that with diversification we can foster a strong and inclusive economy that is built to last and nurture a nation that will continue to lead the world as standard setter.

Immigrants come from distinct parts around America, many of their cultures are from around the world. The United States clearly states in the constitution that everyone, despite their cultural background, has the freedom of speech. Categorization by characteristics from ancestral experiences sets many families and workers apart from American workers by how they identify themselves from their place of origin. Despite differences, individuals who travel to America want to pursue a dream, but are being ostracized based on their culture and cannot find employment. In this post-modern society the act of seeing individuals being discriminated against sets off red flags, making society fight for the rights of those being discriminated against. Our American society unfairly discriminates immigration of cultural ethnicity in the workforce and based on geographical locations.

Five individuals from the U.S. Ladies' National Soccer Team got to be one of the most recent prominent gatherings to demonstrate a red card to its manager in light of unlawful pay hones. These individuals, Alex Morgan, Carli Lloyd, Hope Solo, Megan Rapinoe and Rebecca Sauerbrunn, documented a discrimination charge against the United States Soccer Federation claiming that individuals from the ladies' group are unlawfully remunerated at a much lower rate than their individuals from the United States Men's National Soccer Team. The discrimination charge is recorded with the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. History records when compared and the men's soccer team, the ladies' soccer team is more productive off the field and more fruitful on the soccer field. The attention of the gender gap is accepting (and will keep on receiving) underscores the commitment of all businesses to guarantee their compensation practices are fair (and solid). Without a

In May 2007, the Bush Justice Department filed a lawsuit against the Fire Department of New York (FDNY), based on discriminatory hiring practices for entry level firefighters. More specifically the lawsuit was in regards to the use of exams 7029 and 2043, had an unlawful and negative impact on the prospects of black and Hispanic applicants. In September of that year the Vulcan Society were allowed to intervene in the lawsuit with the objective of proving that these practices were a result of intentional discrimination. The ensuing legal battle would lead to major changes in NYFD’s hiring practices and get the ball rolling towards a more diverse department.

Employment discrimination strikes numerous gatherings of people and has been going on for a long time. In the U.S., this type of discrimination happens at whatever point a business or its delegates purposely single out representatives or candidates on the premise of age, race, sex, sexual introduction, incapacity, religion and an assortment of different reasons. Laws have been readied to debilitate segregation from happening. Rise to circumstances laws plan to make a level playing field with the goal that individuals are utilized, paid, prepared and advanced simply because of their aptitudes, capacities and how they carry out their occupation. This type of discrimination affects a diverse group of people in some shape, form, or fashion.

Employees in San Jose walked out of their jobs to march against the pay wages for women who have comparable jobs with men who are being paid at a higher rate. This strike was initiated after the city council had asked Hay Associates to investigate the pay wages between women and men. The investigation found that there was a wage gap between the two genders to which the public responded to by striking. I believe this does constitute as a form of unjust discrimination because the only reason these women are being paid less is because of their gender. As shown in the case analysis, table 7.11, there are only very small differences between the skills needed for each job yet the wage difference is too high. I believe this is wage discrimination based on someone’s gender, if the position were filled with men they would be paid the same or very similar to their comparable job. However, since Hay’s study did research jobs that are comparable and not the exact job some may believe that because they are not the same job they should not be paid similarly, but as proven by Hay’s analysis the

At will employment provide the right to both employee and employer to terminate the employment any time for any reason. It means employer cannot force to work and employee don’t have to give any time for leaving the job. These are some situation where employer cannot terminate the job base on any discrimination. Title VII of the Civil Right Act protect all the employee from any kind of discrimination based on the color, sex, nationality origin, and also American Disabilities Acts make it illegal to discriminate employee because of disability (Miller,2014).

I applied for a housekeeping job, when attending the interview the interviewer seemed disoriented and disconnected. After the interviewing she proceeded to explain her reason for denying my application. Although, meeting qualified and may possibly be a good fit for the job. I wasn’t of Mexican descent stating asking for a higher grade in pay other than minimum wage wasn’t possible when the Mexican will work for pennies. Another institutionalized racism occurred on my daughter’s job. There had been encounters against other employees, due to being illegal immigrants it continued. I witness while preparing to file a legal case against the manager. The aspect was she was racial against African America, and Mexicans the mannerism of this bias

Personal health record (PHR) is an emerging model of patient-centric health information exchange system, which has been often outsourced to be stored at any third party locations, such as cloud service providers. However, there have been wide privacy concerns as the personal health information could be exposed to unauthorized parties and to those third party servers. To assure the patients control over accessing their own Personal Health Records, it is required to encrypt the PHRs before outsourcing. Yet, there are issues such as risks of scalability in key management, privacy exposure, flexible access, and efficient user revocation, has been remained the most important challenges toward achieving fine-grained, cryptographically enforced data access control. For, designing the above system different methods of encryption techniques have to be studied and see what are the main advantages and disadvantages of the system as few of disadvantage in one system can be used advantage of another system. We have to study how data is stored in cloud system and how users can access them. To design a system such that it has different level of accessing flexibility such that the owner can choose which accessing is required for different user such that data tamper and data corruption can be eliminated. To design a system which has time limited access and data
