...with the discrimination encountered by women because of their sex. “Feminism is a doctrine suggesting that women are systematically disadvantaged in the modern society and advocating equal opportunities for men and women.”(The Penguin Dictionary of Sociology, second Ed). The term includes many loose like liberal feminism, Marxist and socialist feminism, radical feminism. Liberal feminists work for equal rights for women within the framework of the liberal state; they did not question the structure –economic or political-of the state but they demand the rights and privileges given by the state should be equally shared by man and women. Marxist and socialist feminists’ link gender inequality and women’s oppression to the capitalist system. Women suffer a double exploitation as women and as members of the working class. Radical feminists disregard all questions of political and economic dispensation to concentrate on the roots of the problem. The central root of the problem is the system of patriarchy which leads to all kinds of discrimination against and devaluation of women. Politico-economic questions are not the roots but only auxiliaries. The concept of gender is the real villain and has to be demolished. Lately, more groups like Psychoanalytical feminism, Postmodern or Poststructuralists feminism, Black feminism and so on have also been added. Black feminism mainly studies the issues of self- consciousness and self identity of black women who are caught in a dilemma and tries...

...being infamously known as a character’s name, and ultimately the name of the era. While in the Jim Crow Era, the white community used an artform to express their feelings towards the current society; artists today also use art to express their perception on the actions and the society of the years between 1877 and the mid-1960s. Toni Morrison, a well acclaimed author, uses the Jim Crow Era as the backdrop for most of her novels; however, instead of focusing on the tension between the two races, she highlights the disputes in the black community with both genders. She emphasizes how relevant and influential black women and children are, because they had a loss of voice during this time period. Morrison quotes in one of her works, that she “wanted to explore the consequences of what that escape might be, on not only a conventional black society, but on female friendship”(Sula). Toni Morrison does not only write about female friendships within the black community, but also topics like racial beauty and horizontal aggression and their role in this time period. Instead of the traditional novels, that focus on the dispute between Whites and Black, that are set during this time period, an author asserts “Morrison effectively ‘writes both from and about a zone that is ‘outside’ of literacy conventions, that disrupts traditional Western ideology that confirms and modifies patriarchal inscriptions” (Toni Morrison Chapter IV Collective Voices 1). Morrison was not the only artist motivated...

Students will learn that within the institutional environment, there is a commonality of experiences that arise between those who are involved; this is true for both inmates and staff. Indeed, many people may not be aware that, in fact, the mind and the world of the inmate often affect the mind-set of security personnel who work with the inmate.

...2011/2012 GRI Report A companion to the 2011/2012 Sustainability Report This report was released on October 7, 2012 | v1 . 8 About This Report The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) is “a network-based organization that produces a comprehensive sustainability reporting framework that is widely used around the world.” This year, in 2012, The Coca-Cola Company has set out to report against the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that measure economic, environmental and social performance. We have done so within the scope of our Company’s wholly owned operations. Where we have reported information on behalf of the Coca-Cola system (The Coca-Cola Company and our bottling partners), we have flagged this information within the body of the text. For 2012, and the 2011/2012 Sustainability Report specifically, our Company has self-declared a grade B against the GRI G3.1 Guidelines. This year’s Sustainability Report has also received verification by a third-party external verification agency, FIRA Sustainability BV. Their verification is evidenced by a “+” sign next to our grade B, which reflects their verification and approval of our tracking systems. Throughout this report, you will find the KPIs that we have addressed, along with additional information regarding our most critical initiatives and programs. While we strive to continuously increase our transparency, some of the information requested in response to additional KPIs could put at risk our ability to compete and therefore...
