Word clouds

イメージ
Word clouds (also known as text clouds or tag clouds) work in a simple way: the more a specific word appears in a source of textual data (such as a speech, blog post, or database), the bigger and bolder it appears in the word cloud. The following two word clouds were created from the European Commission about raising awareness on discrimination: European Commission . (n.d.). Retrieved July 12, 2017, from http://ec.europa.eu/justice/discrimination/awareness/index_en.htm You'll notice that the word "diversity" is as big as "discrimination" and "anti-discrimination".

Discrimination from various perspectives 1 -- the use of the n-word

イメージ
The following are two opinions of the use of the n-word. We want to show examples of the two sides that support and are against this controversial topic. We wrote this based on a actual video that was recorded last month at Ben Franklin High School. Reference:  Ben Franklin students confront racial slur by teacher. (2017, May 4). Retrieved from http://www.nola.com/education/index.ssf/2017/05/franklin_racial_epithet.html Also take a look at the video below: Caucasian Teacher point of view:  I don't think that saying the n-word is a problem, even less it is racist. People say it's racist because everyone knows the context. Everyone knows the context from 150 years ago. Things have changed, slavery is over. The predominant use of the n-word is by black people who don't care at all anymore. They aren't saying "What up fellow slave?" they're saying "Hi person who is my race." It's a word that's been used so many times that it does...
