| dr umar johnson school location: Suspended For Life C. Twiggy Billue, 2014-07-16 “SUSPENDED FOR LIFE” takes an empirical look via real experiences at how Zero Tolerance Policies contained in the schools “Code of Conduct “disregards the rights of the student, especially students with disabilities. These policies are failing students everywhere including my residence of Syracuse New York. Statistically these unfair and biased “Zero Tolerance Policies” have led to very high suspension rates affecting mainly, inner-city students but overwhelmingly target students with IEPs, 504 Accommodations, the “untested but suspected LD student “ and the intellectually gifted student. Healthcare, Mental Health and Medical Privacy (HIPPA) now play large roles in school especially in decisions to suspend a student however coupled with a school districts Code of Conduct they have become a crucial aspect for suspension. Once you understand the link between a referral to “In-School-Suspension (ISSwarehousing students) or a referral for Out-of-School Suspension (OSS—push out of students) you will realize that in most cases suspension can lead directly to the prison industrial complex for our young women and men. Stopping this from happening to your student may depend on how well you are prepared to advocate for your child. We must not allow suspension to push out our children because ostensibly it may be ensuring them a life sentence of unemployment, crime, or even death. We say it starts at home with the parents, so if we can better understand our student’s rights and the rights we have as parents we can better prepare ourselves to advocate for our student and to hold the school district accountable for the Education of Our Children! |

| dr umar johnson school location: Plantation Negroes of the 21st Century James L. Jordan, 2024-07-19 Has the Black race been ostracized into a purgatory world where it is neither free nor enslaved and where the landscape looks remarkably like the Old Plantation? Dr. Claud Anderson, former Assistant Secretary of Commerce, says: “Black folks in proportional comparative terms are regressing. Blacks have been socially engineered into the lowest levels of life... and are now more hated than at any time in the last 50 years.” Dr. Anderson does not come right out and say that Blacks are still stationed near the Old Plantation, but he comes awfully close... The road that has led the Black race to this perilous moment in time leads us back to a host of villains. The White ones we all know about, the Black ones, Negroes, who prey on their fellow Black sufferers, we conveniently choose to forget about—those House Negroes, that Malcolm X warned us about? This book will name and shame... the Plantation Negroes of the 21st Century. |

In 1927, Zora Neale Hurston went to Plateau, Alabama, just outside Mobile, to interview eighty-six-year-old Cudjo Lewis. Of the millions of men, women, and children transported from Africa to America as slaves, Cudjo was then the only person alive to tell the story of this integral part of the nation’s history. Hurston was there to record Cudjo’s firsthand account of the raid that led to his capture and bondage fifty years after the Atlantic slave trade was outlawed in the United States. In 1931, Hurston returned to Plateau, the African-centric community three miles from Mobile founded by Cudjo and other former slaves from his ship. Spending more than three months there, she talked in depth with Cudjo about the details of his life. During those weeks, the young writer and the elderly formerly enslaved man ate peaches and watermelon that grew in the backyard and talked about Cudjo’s past—memories from his childhood in Africa, the horrors of being captured and held in a barracoon for selection by American slavers, the harrowing experience of the Middle Passage packed with more than 100 other souls aboard the Clotilda, and the years he spent in slavery until the end of the Civil War. Based on those interviews, featuring Cudjo’s unique vernacular, and written from Hurston’s perspective with the compassion and singular style that have made her one of the preeminent American authors of the twentieth-century, Barracoon masterfully illustrates the tragedy of slavery and of one life forever defined by it. Offering insight into the pernicious legacy that continues to haunt us all, black and white, this poignant and powerful work is an invaluable contribution to our shared history and culture. |
| dr umar johnson school location: In a Classroom of Their Own Keisha Lindsay, 2018-07-02 Many advocates of all-black male schools (ABMSs) argue that these institutions counter black boys’ racist emasculation in white, “overly” female classrooms. This argument challenges racism and perpetuates antifeminism. Keisha Lindsay explains the complex politics of ABMSs by situating these schools within broader efforts at neoliberal education reform and within specific conversations about both endangered” black males and a “boy crisis” in education. Lindsay also demonstrates that intersectionality, long considered feminist, is in fact a politically fluid framework. As such, it represents a potent tool for advancing many political agendas, including those of ABMSs supporters who champion antiracist education for black boys while obscuring black girls’ own race and gender-based oppression in school. Finally, Lindsay theorizes a particular means by which black men and other groups can form antiracist and feminist coalitions even when they make claims about their experiences that threaten bridge building. The way forward, Lindsay shows, allows disadvantaged groups to navigate the racial and gendered politics that divide them in pursuit of productive—and progressive—solutions. Far-thinking and boldly argued, In a Classroom of Their Own explores the dilemmas faced by professionals and parents in search of equitable schooling for all students—black boys and otherwise. |

| dr umar johnson school location: Between Social Skills and Marketable Skills Roman Loimeier, 2009-06-15 The present volume is a pioneering study of the development of Islamic traditions of learning in 20th century Zanzibar and the role of Muslim scholars in society and politics, based on extensive fieldwork and archival research in Zanzibar (2001-2007). The volume highlights the dynamics of Muslim traditions of reform in pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial Zanzibar, focussing on the contribution of Sufi scholars (Qādiriyya, ʿAlawiyya) as well as Muslim reformers (modernists, activists, anṣār al-sunna) to Islamic education. It examines several types of Islamic schools (Qurʾānic schools, madāris and “Islamic institutes”) as well as the emergence of the discipline of “Islamic Religious Instruction” in colonial government schools. The volume argues that dynamics of cooperation between religious scholars and the British administration defined both form and content of Islamic education in the colonial period (1890-1963). The revolution of 1964 led to the marginalization of established traditions of Islamic education and encouraged the development of Muslim activist movements which have started to challenge state informed institutions of learning. |

| dr umar johnson school location: Women's Education in Developing Countries Elizabeth M. King, M. Anne Hill, 1997-07-01 Why do women in most developing countries lag behind men in literacy? Why do women get less schooling than men? This anthology examines the educational decisions that deprive women of an equal education. It assembles the most up-to-date data, organized by region. Each paper links the data with other measures of economic and social development. This approach helps explain the effects different levels of education have on womens' fertility, mortality rates, life expectancy, and income. Also described are the effects of women's education on family welfare. The authors look at family size and women's labor status and earnings. They examine child and maternal health, as well as investments in children's education. Their investigation demonstrates that women with a better education enjoy greater economic growth and provide a more nurturing family life. It suggests that when a country denies women an equal education, the nation's welfare suffers. Current strategies used to improve schooling for girls and women are examined in detail. The authors suggest an ambitious agenda for educating women. It seeks to close the gender gap by the next century. Published for The World Bank by The Johns Hopkins University Press. |

| dr umar johnson school location: State-Sanctioned Violence Melvin Delgado, 2020-02-03 The helping professions and social scientists traditionally seek concepts and paradigms that can be used in shaping research and services focused on marginalized populations in the United States. Various perspectives have garnered attention across disciplines with intersectionality as a recent, salient example. However, state-sanctioned violence--built upon the foundation established by Intersectionality--introduces a purposeful socio-political agenda that is carried out by various levels of government to subjugate a group due to its beliefs, physical characteristics, and/or social circumstances. This book provides a conceptual foundation on state-sanctioned violence; critiques how this perspective holds relevance for social work research, education, and practice; examines specific examples of how and where state-sanctioned violence is manifested; and projects potential developments into the near future. |

This work is also valuable for those interested in the locally organized and interactionally achieved context of institutional work' - Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics if Education `Though based in Australia, Peter Gronn shows familiarity with the British education system, and this boo is relevant to those in the compulsory and post-compulsory sectors interested in the themes of education leadership' - Learning and Skills Research In The New Work of Educational Leaders, Peter Gronn provides a new framework for understanding leadership practice. The work of leaders will increasingly be shaped by three overriding but contradictory themes: design; distribution; and disengagement. These are the `architecture' of school and educational leadership. Designer-leadership is the use of mandatory standards of assessment and accreditation for school leaders, such as the National Qualification for Headship (NPQH) in the United Kingdom and the (Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) standards in the United States. Distributed patterns of leadership have developed in response to the intensification of school leaders' work under policy regimes of site-based and school self-management. Disengagement describes a culture of abstention, in which school systems anticipate leadership succession problems, such as projected shortages and recurring recruitment difficulties. |

| dr umar johnson school location: Social and Sustainability Marketing Jishnu Bhattacharyya, Manoj Kumar Dash, Chandana Hewege, M.S. Balaji, Weng Marc Lim, 2021-09-26 ... an important intervention in the conversation around social and ecological sustainability that draws on both micromarketing and macromarketing scholarship to help the reader understand the challenges with illustrations from insightful cases both from emerging and developed economies. This compilation should be essential reading for the discerning student of sustainable consumption and production. -- Professor Pierre McDonagh, Associate Editor, Journal of Macromarketing (USA); Professor of Critical Marketing & Society, University of Bath, UK Experts in the field of economics, management science, and particularly in the marketing domain have always been interested in and acknowledged the importance of sustaining profitable businesses while incorporating societal and environmental concerns; however, the level of existing literature and availability of teaching cases reflect a dearth of real case studies, especially those focused on marketing for social good. This book of actual case studies will address that need. In addition, this book is important and timely in providing a case book for instructors (those in both industry and academia) to help them in teaching and training the next generation of leaders through corporate training and universities. Currently, marketing for social good is increasingly becoming a part of most curriculums under the umbrella of different titles, such as social marketing, green marketing, and sustainability marketing. The relevance of these studies is increasing across the globe. This book is composed of long and short real cases with varying complexity in different sectors. This case book will also cover some review articles for an overview of the recent developments in the study area. With these case studies, collections of questions, teaching materials, and real-life marketing scenarios, this book offers a unique source of knowledge to marketing professionals, students, and educators across the world. The main objective of this case book is to understand the applicability of marketing science (marketing for social good context, such as social marketing and sustainability marketing) in internet marketing related to e-buying behavior and e-WOM. In addition, it illustrates the various types of existing marketing practices that are relevant from both theoretical and practical points of view in this electronic era, as well as discussing other non-electronic marketing practices and focusing on consumer buying behavior. As a result, marketing managers can treat their customers according to their desired value. This book particularly explores the possibilities and advantages created by social marketing and sustainability marketing through the presentation of thorough review articles and case studies. This case book helps corporate training centers and universities with compact teaching reference materials in their relevant courses. |
| dr umar johnson school location: Hustling Rufus Shaw, 1982 Rufus Shaw's Book, Hustling: The Art of Black financial Survival, is a simple, common sense guide on how black business people can survive and even prosper if they know what they are doing. Show, whose first book was How to be Rich nigger, has two degrees from Southern Methodist University in Dallas. He said his street sense was learned in the predominantly black section of South Dallas. Using Humor, poetry and a smattering of profanity, Shaw avoids complicated economic formulas. He starts off by defining hustling: ..making something positive happen under difficult circumstances by using a combination of common sense, understanding of human nature, daring and hard work. In his straight forward style, Shaw Discusses such topics as understanding man from a street perspective, business from that same perspective, the educated fool, going broke and investments. The book is quick and easy reading. Shaw Breaks no new ground as he drops numerous jewels on his readers: Without some form of education you're lost. Racism will you down, but ignorance will knock you out or When money is in hand, pay your bills on time, when money is short, pay in 60 days, when money is shortest, pay something, but never pay nothing. or: If you're sued, it is not the end of the world. Millions of people have been sued and have judgments pending..but they live everyday, normal lives. There's no X marked on their forehead.. Sure, it'll mess up your credit. The minute the bill collectors start calling, your credit was Screwed.' Shaw also devotes a chapter on crime and how it can be a money maker, but not without risks, for black people. There even is a subheading entitled, Prison University. He does not preach, but he does touch many bases in a fact filled and entertaining 103 page book. Shaw's greatest success in this to me is pulling together a lot of basic wisdom and putting it down in black and white.

| dr umar johnson school location: Catholic, Traditional & Black David L. Gray, 2022-04-18 “Catholic, Traditional and Black: in Anthology and Discourse, brings together Black voices who not only reject the dominant sociological narrative as to identity and cultural experience, but who also defy the common perceptions of what Black religious experience is and ought to be. If the current cultural climate trumpets the lie of Black sociological uniformity, so too does the dominant understanding of the reality of Catholicism in the life of Black Americans. How timely to have a series of reflections that dispel these myths and provide an authentic voice to the truth of Catholicism to reach through history, culture, and polemics and provide the source of peace and salvation for the whole world.” – from the Foreword by, Monsignor C. Eugene Morris S.T.D. Here are stories of five people of God whose lives have been dramatically changed and enriched for having discovered the penetrating beauty of Catholic traditional liturgy and the permanence of traditional Catholic values and devotions, which have oiled the lamp through which they seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. These five people also happen to be identified as Black Americans but have been inspired to live their lives through their Catholic faith, rather than through society’s race constructs. Contributors Include – David L. Gray, Arlena Brown, Eric Phillips, Géraldine Précil, and Jackson Pickney. Foreword by, Monsignor C. Eugene Morris |
| dr umar johnson school location: What Went Wrong in the Muslim World?: Values vs. Actions Dr. Naceur Jabnoun, 2018-01-29 Eighteen years ago, the author had his first shock about the attitude of some of his colleagues towards meritocracy. Turning down the best job candidate was not something he could easily understand. He first thought it was an isolated problem, but he later realized that it was a common problem related to a wide and deep misunderstanding of Islamic values. Dr. Naceur Jabnoun examines how the values held by many Muslims are contributing to their underperformance. The book covers five categories of values, including core values, driving values, enabling values, performance values, and the regulating value of moderation. The book suggests measures to translate these values into actions. Join the author as he investigates the Muslim world, its failures, the message of Islam, and ways to forge a better future in What Went Wrong in the Muslim World? |
