During this course, there were some prejudices that I have discovered that I did not think I had. One of the prejudices discovered was against Euro-Americans, believing that most of them had it easy because they were white. I learned that me believing in this, came from how I grew up. I am a multiracial man (African American and Latino), but I was raised by my Black father. So, for most of my life I was around my Black family and for the most part I had black and non-white friends. Growing up my…

Reflection on "A Class Divided" Discrimination has been prevalent in many cases throughout U.S. history and still is today.

The relationship between the majority and minority in America has been a shaky, rocky road. Whites and all the other races have had quite an interesting relationship, with lots of ups and downs. The history reveals many nasty, shady events that can be placed on both sides. Because of such an unsteady past, much of the concern today can be seen through protests, marches, and riots across the country today. Many minorities feel as if they have been getting the short end of the stick for a long…

Labor Union is a group of workers organized to achieve their rights about problems or common goal in their jobs. After read the Power Point about “Labor Unions”, I could understand that this organization is also active in my country, Brazil. However, we call it: “Sindicatos”. Those groups are organized at the same way as Labor Unions; they have different sectors organized by area of actuation.

Introduction: Temperature can affect the rate at which an action potential is generated to excite an action potential within a given skeletal muscle. Maximum contraction is the ability of the muscle to recruit and produce its greatest force during a contraction, and we can observe these effects by using a grip force transducer, which records the functional grip force of the hand. Therefore, the purpose of this lab was to discern how varying temperatures affect maximum contraction. I…
