Thoughts and blogs that Vangie & Diversity Council owns
- Oprah's MLK show - brown vs. blue eyes
- Oprah rebroadcasts an experiment she did with her audience when she divided them by the color of their eyes and treated them differently. And, a young man who is white tries to see what it's like living like a man who is black.
- Bullying: Not just a rite of passage - Editorial by the Diversity Council
- "...Half of all children experience bullying at some point, and one in ten is bullied regularly. And the problem is growing as cyberbullying opens new frontiers. More than half of all teens admit to online bullying..."
- Twin Cities Communities Resource List
- Resource list will add/remove contacts regularly. If you have any suggestions please add them to the comment section and I will add them to the list. Thanks!
- What Is Classism?
- "Middle-class and owning- or ruling-class people (dominant group members) are seen as smarter and more articulate than working-class and poor people (subordinated groups). In this way, dominant group members (middle-class and wealthy people) define for everyone else what is “normal” or “acceptable” in the class hierarchy."
