Egg coloration is correlated with female          condition in eastern bluebirds (Sialia sialis). Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 59(5),           651-656. Determination of if the hypothesis explicitly stated or implied, the alternative hypothesis, and the understanding of the hypothesis The hypothesis has been explicitly stated that egg coloration is correlated to a condition in the eastern blue birds. The alternative hypothesis would be that the older female eastern bluebirds and female eastern bluebirds in better conditions are highly prone to lay blue and more colorful eggs. Based on the reading, the hypothesis implies that the female eastern bluebirds that are healthy are highly prone to lay eggs that are colorful compared to their counterparts who are not in better health conditions. Moreover, the hypothesis can also be understood to propose that the color of the eggs of the female eastern bluebirds is a determinant of the health conditions of the birds…

Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness             Michelle Alexander is a civil rights activist and a pronounced legal scholar. The book discusses race-related issues majorly on African Americans males and the mass incarceration in America. Alexander, however, notes that discrimination among black Americans is on the minorities and socio-economically disadvantaged populations. The book majorly shows that mass incarceration is in the metaphoric world of the new Jim Crow. The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness was written by Michelle Alexander to expose the truth of racial injustice in the system of mass incarceration through the comparison of racial control. She reveals how race plays a vital role in the American Justice System. Alexander argues about the racial bias, particularly concerning African-Americans, essential in the war on drugs due to lack of political power and how the Supreme Court stomachs injustice. As much as some victims of this category of abuse took legal action and confirmed that the fight against drugs is racially unfair, their statements were overruled and ignored in court. This paper shows how…

white privilege and colorism in America America has made great strides toward racial equality since the end of slavery. However, several racial problems persist, and they include white privilege. White people continue to have an advantage over some opportunities compared to other people of color. This essay will discuss the issue of white privilege and colorism in America. This will be achieved by defining the terms and giving examples to illustrate the problems in society. White privilege refers to the advantages possessed by white people based on their race in a society plagued by racial injustice and inequality. Collins (2018) note that white privilege is described using Peggy McIntosh’s essay published in 1988. This essay illuminated white privilege by making the problem tangible and personal. Indeed, white privilege is a concept that has become a victim of its connotations. The term contains two words that have a double whammy, which instigates pushback. The first word “white” creates discomfort among people who loathe being defined by their race. The second word, “privilege,” make rural and poor white people feel like the…

“COLOR BLIND” VS “COLOR BRAVE” VIDEO ANALYSIS             Many are the times when people pretend not to notice what takes place in and around them. Probably out of fear of the circumstances which may befall then out of the exposure. Being ignorant and pretending everything is working normally however does not make the situation any better. Instead, it worsens the situation. Mellody Hobson, an African-American business woman points out some serious issues out of acting “color blind” in her video, after she realized that people were pretending not to notice how racism had become rampant in America. There was a lot of discrimination towards the black Americans by the white Americans. According to Hobson, the victims were supposed to be color brave instead of being color blind. This is because being color blind did not mean that there was any fairness but rather meant they were ignoring the problem. In real life situations, according to Hobsons point of view, in case of any problem the solution should be creating awareness of such a problem rather than hiding it and assuming…

The people of color The people of color were rendered invisible in the 1950s by the progressive North, while the south segregated themselves with an ugly history. These traits are now seen in today’s urban classrooms. In schools being on time and ready for the class has different perceptions depending on either it’s the teacher’s or the student’s point of view. This question about being on time and ready for has no clear answer. Truth being a teacher will consider the ones that act like them and perceive who don’t as inferior and different. Urban educators mostly don’t live in nearby communities, which makes it hard for them to have a connection with the students. The civic education has a context that dismisses students’ lives and experiences yet talks of advocating for equity improving schools. As long as the white folks teaching in the hood belief that urban youth require “cleaning up” shows that they are dirty and “getting a better life” indicates their present state has little or no value. This can only be curbed by the educator knowing…

Colorectal Cancer I learned that colorectal cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer and the third most commonly diagnosed all over the world. The world has made significant steps in the development of diagnosis and treatment methods for the disease. However, a lot still needs to be done to reduce mortality associated with the disease. The number of people dying from colorectal cancer every year has remained relatively constant for the past fifty years. The treatment outcomes for CRC significantly depend on the stage of diagnosis. Stage IV patients have meager chances of recovery, with only 8 percent having the ability to live for up to 5 years after diagnosis. Bowel obstructions are very common among Colorectal Cancer patients, especially in the advanced stages. The obstructions worsen the conditions and significantly impact on the person’s survival. Colorectal patients who develop colorectal obstruction have a 20 percent lower chance of survival compared to the patients without. I also learned that the treatment measures for patients with bowel obstructions are significantly different from those without. For the former, surgery can…
