‘They Want Our Culture, Not Our Struggle’: Race and Gender Inequalities in Music, Sports, and Hollywood

When it comes time to disagree that White male privilege exists, insisting race and gender equity is already achieved, deniers often point to prominent people of color in sports and entertainment industries. Famous figures like Oprah Winfrey, Beyonce Knowles, Jay-Z, and Lebron James may, with cursory glance, give impression that—even if fields like finance, technology, medicine, law, and politics have glass ceilings—the entertainment field provides a seemingly utopian space where the playing field has already been leveled, and the so-called American Dream of race and gender equality has assumedly arrived. Using both quantitative and qualitative data, from primary and secondary sources, we look beyond token big names to overall patterns in music, professional sports, and film arenas to document how racial and gender inequality continue to stratify entertainment industries. Our analysis demonstrates that women and people of color are conditionally accepted, at best, to entertain, provided they stay in their proverbial place—seldom owning, directing, or taking the lead, and penalized when speaking out about oppression. We end with recommendations on how to shatter glass ceilings, like inclusion riders and Rooney Rule, along with other ways to bring more women and people of color into more powerful positions in these industries.

Democracy and Reflections on 25 Years of Indonesian Reformation

Democracy has grown since the time of Ancient Greek civilization with the concept of Greek city states and Athens in 450 BC and 350 BC. Even in 431 BC, Pericles, a well-known Athenian statesman, defined democracy by putting forward several criteria: (1) government by the people with full and direct participation of the people; (2) equality before the law; (3) pluralism, namely respect for all talents, interests, desires and views; and (4) respect for a separation and personal area to meet and express individual personality (Roy C Macridis, 1983:19-20). In the same era, we can also get acquainted with the political thoughts of Plato, Aristotle, Polybius and Cicero, etc., to mention some of the thinkers of that time, who also laid the foundations for the notion of democracy. During its development, the concept of democracy underwent an increasing fertile phase and moved towards moderation during the Renaissance. So far, great thoughts have arisen about the relationship between the two rulers or the state on the one hand and the people on the other. There are new and surprising thoughts about the power and thought of Niccolo Machiavelli (1469-1527). On the Social Contract and the Separation of Powers by Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679), Jhon Locke (1632-1704). Many of these big names have thoughts of contributing significantly to efforts to redefine or implement the term democracy.

Redefining Sustainability: A Review of the Big Names from the FMCG Industry Taking Significant Measures

Human resource is one of the most crucial factors in the organization. Recent years have shown an inclination towards sustainability among organizations. Sustainability calls for a particular set of guidelines to ensure that we are making optimum utilization of resources without causing any harm to the environment. For the past few years, many researchers have been actively working on this issue and summarized their findings in research papers. Past studies reveal that many organizations consider sustainability a critical issue and continually work on improving their strategies. This study aims to discover the factors that gave rise to the concept of Green Human Resource Management, how it evolved with the dynamic market and what contributions have been made by top brands through their Green HRM policies. Purpose: The purpose of the study was to highlight the working patterns of high performing companies from the FMCG industry. The ideology behind the study was to track the steps taken by big brands towards betterment of the society and towards the environment. Theoretical framework: This study aims at highlighting the concerns of today that might severely affect market and the society in the future. Since HRM practices contribute to the implementation and upkeep of an environmental management system (EMS), helping organizations achieve higher environmental performance (EP), it is becoming increasingly clear that the environmental impacts of HRM processes should be taken into account at every stage of the process (Gilal et al., 2019; Yusoff et al., 2020). In reality, GHRM makes sure businesses extend widely and adopt more ecologically responsible practices. GHRM is crucial for business management for a number of reasons, including the advantages to the environment, retaining employees, and boosting a company's appeal. According to earlier HRM literature (Pham et al., 2020; Awan et al., 2022) individual practices, rather than a collection of practices, had a greater impact on a company's success. Design/ Methodology/ Approach: The study is primarily based on past researches and data directly referred from the companies’ sources for utmost authentication of facts added. Findings: Big brands are taking initiatives like reducing the carbon footprint by taking certain actions basis the chain they ae dealing in. The companies are not only making strategies for the same, but also taking a step in creating awareness regarding the hot topic. Research, Practical & Social implications: Sustainability is becoming a need for the hour considering the limit of the resources that we possess today. Major factor while extracting resources is the make sure that we are putting in extra effort to replenish those resources. For instance, paper. If we want two trees for paper, we must plant at least four trees to make up for the damage we are doing today. Thus, if we want to make sure that our future generations would be able to access and use resources as we are doing today, we must follow certain self-made rules for the same.

THE LEGACY OF MACHADO DE ASSIS

The theme proposed in this Article is: ‘The Legacy of Machado de Assis.’ The development of this Article took place under the qualitative methodology with bibliographic, qualitative, referential, interpretive, descriptive and critical-dialectical methods. Reflecting on Machado is the main objective of this Article, considering the importance of Machado de Assis: one of the greatest names in Brazilian Literature, if not the greatest. Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis is the main author of Realism in Brazil: he is considered the biggest name in the movement in this country. In fact, he is considered the introducer of Realism in Brazil, with the publication of ‘Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas’ (1881). The Legacy of Machado de Assis helped immensely in the building of the Brazilian Literary Critique. Initially I will deal with Some Critics by Machado; later I will talk about The PostMachado Literature; and then I will weave my Final Considerations. I hope the academic environment will receive a good contribution, both practical and theoretical, by carrying out my analyses.

Multilingualism in linguistic landscapes in Tunisia: a critical discourse analysis of language policy activities

ABSTRACT Taking a multi-level perspective on language-in-public-space policy, this study investigates the way Tunisia’s dominant languages are dealt with in three independent but interrelated activities of language policy: official texts, public talk, and the actual practices of business actors in five commercial districts in metropolitan Tunis. Detailed critical discourse analysis of these policy activities indicated considerable tension between official texts’ legislations on, and public élites’ debate about public signage and “on the ground” sociolinguistic practices. While official texts and public debates base the dominant languages on monolingual, postcolonial and highly compartmentalized language ideologies, the sociolinguistic practices within these localities are marked by the emergence of an English-leaning trend in public signage. Nevertheless, this trend is heavily qualified by the concurrent use of identifiable language clusters, creative wordplay, multiscriptal practices, the commodification of heritage, national and supranational symbols, and an overall resistance to big commercial names as well as subversion of the official legislations and public debates. The article concludes by discussing the implications of the approach to multilingualism adopted in this study for illuminating the connections between Tunisia’s dominant languages, language policy and linguistic landscapes.

From diagnosis to treatment of post-polio syndrome: A case study

Introduction: Acute anterior poliomyelitis (AAP) can affect people of any age, despite being uncommon before six months. The viral invasion destroys the lower motor neurons of the spinal cord, brain, and brainstem. As a result, it leads to partial or complete flaccid and asymmetrical paralysis of the lower limb and spine muscles. Big names like Frida Kahlo and US President Franklin D Roosevelt were diagnosed with polio. Case Report: We present the case of a patient with AAP diagnosed at two years of age. As an adult, he gave osteomyoarticular sequelae, insomnia, new central (adynamia), peripheral fatigue, cold intolerance, joint and neuropathic pain. The patient received a clinical diagnosis of post-polio syndrome (PPS) after fulfilling Dalakas criteria. The physical examination showed some hallmarks of AAP, in addition to those primarily affected by PPS. Conclusion: Post-polio syndrome is a disorder characterized by new neuromuscular deficits that present years after the resolution of polio infection. However, far beyond the physical pain, the psychosocial impact is staggering. Therefore, in addition to surgical intervention and physical therapy, attention should be paid to the psychological follow-up of this patient, who is most often elderly.

Strategi Bersaing UMKM Toko Roti dan Kue di Kecamatan Bontang Utara Kota Bontang Selama Pandemi Covid-19 dan Pasca Pandemi Covid-19

Toko Ria Rasa Cake & Bake, Toko Nanis Cake & Bakery, and Samabread are the local UMKM located in North Bontang District, Bontang City. The purpose of this research is to find out and determine the appropriate competitive strategy for the three UMKM. This type of research is qualitative. Sources of research data are key informants and supporting informants. Data collection techniques in research are interviews and observations. The analysis technique used is SWOT analysis (IFAS, EFAS, SWOT Analysis Diagram, and SWOT Matrix). The result and conclusion from this research is that the target to be achieved is to open branches or shops in other places to expand the market. The products that are sold vary widely, ranging from sweet to salty, and there is bread made from natural ingredients without chemical food ingredients. The price of each bread also varies, which can cover various economic groups. The three UMKM do not mind the existence of competitors with big brand names as long as these brands can compete healthily. Strategies to survive during the Covid-19 pandemic are almost the same as maximizing online sales on social media, carrying out safe packaging by spraying disinfectants, and shipping using your courier or courier from outside. The strategy resulting from mapping the SWOT matrix for the three UMKM is the SO strategy.

Fishes with Funny French Names: The French Restaurant in London from the Nineteenth to the Twenty-First Century. By Debra Kelly

My first thought on seeing this attractively presented book was to wonder why no one had tackled such an appetizing subject in such depth before. Here was an opportunity to produce a book that could be both academically fruitful — Debra Kelly is the co-editor of a pioneering book on the French in London, to which I should say I was a contributor — and also appeal to a non-academic readership. The title suggests that wider appeal is one of the author’s aims. How does the book succeed? It begins with a thorough Introduction that takes us through the standard works, including of course Barthes and Bourdieu. But the insights that these might offer — or not, as the case may be — do not shape the rest of the book, which is largely empirical and factual. It is not primarily a work offering a new analysis, and the author accepts the broad interpretations proposed by authors such as Amy Trubek and Stephen Mennell, for example that the impoverishment of British native cooking is partly due to the social dominance of French cuisine. Several plausible underlying themes emerge from the book: that French restaurants have been an important presence in London’s social life, both for the rich and the not-so-rich; that some individual establishments have been remarkably durable; that most have been ephemeral; and that the significance of French cuisine has changed from being a badge of superiority to one among many strands in a cosmopolitan and now informal (if expensive) restaurant scene. There are four broad chronological chapters covering the nineteenth century, the interwar period, the second half of the twentieth century, and the twenty-first century. The title of the final chapter, ‘Continuity and (R)Evolution’, jokily hints at the broad-brush nature of the argument. What the book mainly consists of is a comprehensive catalogue of London’s French restaurants over the last two hundred years, and of the people who owned, worked in, or ate in them. We find the big names, from Marie-Antoine Carême via Auguste Escoffier to Raymond Blanc, and a lot of less famous names too. Indeed, whole paragraphs, even whole pages, are given over to lists of names and addresses. For the nineteenth century, these come largely from the trade press, principally The Caterer. Similar sources are used for the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, with the addition of generous quotations from memoirs and biographies. The final sections read rather like an extended Sunday supplement feature, with ample treatment of celebrities, Michelin stars, and promotional events. In short, this is an accessible book but not one to be read from cover to cover. Better to start with the Index of Places, and look up your favourite French restaurant, or one you are thinking of trying. For this is a fascinating guidebook to history, fashion, and not least the pleasures of the table.

The future is going to mean more growth and innovation. The past is no more over, but creates a vision which has in store something positive in the future, and hope of ever succeeding. This review paper covers the post-COVID changes involving a radical change in education across the world that impacted by Industry 4.0.

Design of a Digital Map to Support Coffee Shop Tourism Guided by the Ambeu Preanger Community in Pangalengan District

Pangalengan is one of the tourist destinations in West Java that is currently popular and has resulted in an increase in the number of tourists. This density occurs especially in tourist attractions that have quite big names. One of the advantages of Pangalengan is coffee, which is known as the best coffee commodity in West Java. However, the existence of a coffee shop in the Pangalengan area has not been able to encourage the growing interest of tourists to come to the coffee shop. One of the problems faced is the absence of mapping which is a source of information on the existence of coffee shops in the Pangalengan area. This research used the 4D RD method consisting of 4 main stages namely Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate which were carried out at the Ambeu Preanger Coffee Farming Community. The results of the study show that one of the causes of the non-publication of coffee shops in the Pangalengan area is caused by the information media which does not expose coffee shops as a tourism commodity. The existence of a digital map is considered to be able to support the tour of the Ambeu Preanger Community Assisted Coffee Shop in Pangalengan District so it is hoped that with a digital map that specializes in the shops above it will become better known and will certainly generate good profits for the continuity of its business

“림보의 침묵”: 카마우 브래스웨이트(Kamau Brathwaite)의 아프리카-카리브 시학

Mainly due to the colonial history that the Caribbean archipelago has experienced, the Caribbean studies has grown into a competent field of study that can open a new horizon of humanities. The Babadian Kamau Brathwaite is often regarded as one of the major authors of Anglophone Caribbean literature. It is true, however, that he has been treated as a peripheral figure compared with such big names like Derek Walcott, George Lamming, and Wilson Harris. This study is suggested as a reminder that he is no longer a minor voice but rather a revolutionary figure in terms of modern Caribbean literature. Brathwaite has investigated the question of cultural identity mobilizing such loaded terms as creolization, tidalectics, and nation language. In his poems Brathwaite intended to celebrate the power of language that the American creole has inherited and retrieve the African legacy melted in the language. Analyzing some key poems in Arrivants and Middle Passage, this study is trying to identify the ways in which Brathwaite traces the question of cultural identity through the lens of Africa and linguistic experiments.

Evaluating the Relevance and Significance of Shakespeare’s Hamlet in Indian Context

Hamlet has always been remembered as Shakespeare’s masterpiece creation. The play has enjoyed unmatched popularity among the audience of all ages. Since its first public performance, till date, the play has always remained relevant to the audience, in some way or the other. The history of Hamlet in India dates back to the colonial era. The play was first introduced by the troupes which performed it for the English traders. Later on, as a consequence of the colonial education, it became the part of the formal English education and travelled to the other groups of the society. Shakespeare was a big name even then, and the ever-praised elements of the play greatly influenced the local audience. With the development, translation and movie-adaptation also greatly helped in the wider circulation of the play, and it never went totally out of discussion. The present research paper focuses on some of the major elements which helped in this larger popularity of the play in a non-English-speaking country like India. It will try to analyse the relevance and significance of Hamlet to the audience in the Indian context. The focus will also be on the translation and the different kinds of adaptations of the play which have greatly helped in a wider circulation of Shakespeare’s creative genius. The paper begins with a general discussion of the play, mostly taking accounts from the English literary critics, and moves on to the analysis of the play in the Indian context.
