...Wehmar Marks HST 208 Salvadoran Migration to the US El Salvador was ravaged by a nasty civil war. During this time, several hundred thousand Salvadorans escaped to the United States, settling primarily around the Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. areas. Many of them entered the country illegally via Mexico. Odyssey to the North portrays the Salvadoran-American experience using collective reminiscence and a series of flashbacks to illustrate the impact of immigration on the psyche of Salvadorans who embarked on a journey outside their homeland to the US during the 1970s-1980s. Emphasis is placed on the reasons immigrants ran away from their home country rather than their desire to go to the United States, lending a better understanding of the new comers’ outlook on the American dream. Salvadoran identity and the inevitability of maintaining ties between immigrants in the US and their country of origin is characterized by the protagonist, Calixto. Although he was physically away from his land, he firmly believed that he would always hold it in his heart (50). His situation exposes the suffering of tens of thousands of Salvadorans caught up in Civil War violence. Calixto reflects on the devastating violence of El Salvador, stating, “I picture my country as one enormous cemetery” (152). Government forces sought after Calixto, a construction worker, falsely accusing him of being a rebel sympathizer. Despite his lack of political involvement, he was denounced as a revolutionary...

...Page 82 Exercise 1. What aspects of Juancho’s experience can you identify most with? Why? Juancho was born and raised in the province with the traditional Catholic traditions and practices, folk beliefs and too much fanaticism of Catholicism and then when he went to the city he is somehow culture shocked by the number of religions in the country but yet we only have one God. And the religious supermarket with too many religious practices. For me who is also born and raised as a Catholic but I was not trained of too much religious beliefs only that teaching me to pray before and after we eat and every time that I am going to sleep and to go to mass every Sunday. But at a young age I am already exposed to different types of religion since I live in a very big community and my elementary alma matter, which is a Catholic school already emphasize to us that yes indeed there are a lot of religions but there is only one God. The only thing that we differ in is that the way how we praise God. 2. In today’s “religious supermarket,” what religious ideas, practices, groups, books have you found attractive or interesting? Why did you find them attractive or interesting? I was not given a chance to go to a religious supermarket yet, but as far as I can describe what a religious supermarket is the best example to be given is Quiapo. Quiapo is a district and city square of Manila. Referred as the "Old Downtown", Quiapo in known for where cheap buys or goods are being sold at rock-bottom...

...Racial Diversity: Historical Worksheet Donald K. Morgan Building Organizational Capacity Juancho A. Lim June 5, 2013 Throughout most of U.S. history, in most locations, what race has been in the majority? What is the common ancestral background of most members of this group? According to "The Changing Racial And Ethnic Composition Of The Us Population" In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the classification by race expanded to include the measurement of “mulattos”—persons of mixed black and white ancestry—and the “blood quantum” (percent of white ancestry) of American Indians. By 1890, the census racial classification reflected a growing preoccupation with identifying persons with slightest hint of African ancestry, adding categories for “quadroon” (persons with one-fourth black ancestry) and “octoroon” (persons with one-eighth or less black ancestry). In 1930, Mexicans were added to the growing list of “nonwhites.” Fearing the move as an effort to stigmatize (and possibly deny naturalization to) Mexican Americans by labeling them a nonwhite racial group, the Mexican American population (and the Mexican government) strongly protested the change, and the racial category was soon disavowed by the director of the Census Bureau What are some of the larger racial minorities in U.S. history? What have been the common ancestral backgrounds of each of these groups? When did each become a significant...

...Jehovah’s Witnesses and Race/Ethnic Groups Cynthia L. Mills College of Humanities/ETH125 Juancho A. Lim, PH.D. January 24, 2014 Jehovah’s Witnesses and Race/Ethnic Groups The Jehovah’s Witnesses have their own set of beliefs set forth for them by The Watchtower Organization. They are taught not to think for themselves but to submit to the Watchtower Society teachings. If they question any of the teachings they are considered weak in the faith. Disfellowshipping is another belief factor that they use to control their members. An individual can also be marked if they do something wrong. They do not believe in blood transfusions for themselves or their children. The saluting of the flag of any nation, saying the pledge of allegiance, taking notice of the national anthem in any way, running or holding public office, voting, or serving in the military is totally forbidden. The Jehovah’s Witnesses are not allowed to celebrate any holidays or birthdays, claiming that they all have pagan roots. They are not allowed to associate with non-Witnesses including family. They do not believe in the Trinity, or in Hell. They believe that Jesus Christ was crucified on a stake, not a cross. (Towerwatch Ministries, 1999-2013). The Jehovah’s Witnesses place a high value on moral living and teach that these standards must be upheld in order to be saved (The Watchtower, 2002). No gambling is allowed, which includes, the lottery, horse racing or bingo. They...

...Rizal’s Education Subject: PI 11 Life, Works and Writings of Dr. Jose Rizal Schedule: 9:00-10:30 TTh AE 306 Submitted to: Ms. Jennifer M. Bito Submitted by: Group 2 Charaychay, Kalie Kalaya B. Ligawen, Melody Y. Submitted on: February 11, 2016 Early Education The hero’s first teacher was his mother, Dona Teodora. On the age of three, Jose already learned his alphabet, how to pray, and reaching the age of 5, he can read the Holy Bible and he can also write in Spanish. As early as his age, his mother told a story about the “The Young Moth”, which made the profoundest impression on him in the tragic fate of the young moth, which died a martyr to its illusions. When Jose grew older, his parents employed private tutors, Maestro Colestino was Jose’s first private tutor, second private tutor was Maestro Lucas Padua and his third tutor was Maestro Leon Monroy, a classmate of his father, who taught Rizal in Spanish and Latin for five months. Education at Binan, Laguna Five months later, the latter maestro died and Jose was sent to a school in Binan. In June 1869, Jose travelled to Binan, accompanied by Paciano(his older brother). Upon arriving at Binan, Jose lodged at the house of his aunt. Maestro Justiano Aquino Cruz was his first formal teacher. Jose described his teacher as follows: "He was tall, thin, long-necked, with sharp nose and a body slightly bent forward, and he used to wear a sinamay shirt, woven by the skilled hands of the women of Batangas.

...Athletic HISTORY The first modern-style indoor athletics meetings were recorded shortly after in the 1860s, including a meet at Ashburnham Hall in London which featured four running events and a triple jump competition. The Amateur Athletic Association (AAA) was established in England in 1880 as the first national body for the sport of athletics and began holding its own annual athletics competition – the AAA Championships. The United States also began holding an annual national competition – the USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships – first held in 1876 by the New York Athletic Club.[14] Athletics became codified and standardized via the English AAA and other general sports organisations in the late 19th century, such as the Amateur Athletic Union (founded in the US in 1888) and the Union des sociétésfrançaises de sports athlétiques (founded in France in 1889). An athletics competition was included in the first modern Olympic Games in 1896 and it has been as one of the foremost competitions at the quadrennial multi-sport event ever since. Originally for men only, the 1928 Olympics saw the introduction of women's events in the athletics programme. Athletics is part of the Paralympic Games since the inaugural Games in 1960. Athletics has a very high profile during major championships, especially the Olympics, but otherwise is less popular. An international governing body, the International Amateur Athletics Federation (IAAF), was founded in 1912; it adopted its current...
