Women as Leaders in Differing Microfinance Models
Get PDFOne of the original microfinance institutions (MFIs) is Grameen Bank in Bangladesh and the founder of the bank is Muhammad Yunus (2007). Yunus (2007) initiated a discourse that stated that microloans granted to women resulted in, among other things, increased female empowerment. Much of the global microfinance industry (MFI) has mimicked Yunus’ focus on women and thus created a global master narrative which stated that the capitalist system of credit provided to marginalized women can alleviate poverty and empower women. Other development organizations contend that by itself microfinance cannot empower women; empowerment also requires long-term efforts to influence change in the hegemonic patriarchal social and political structures. In this paper I will assess the MFI narrative of empowerment through a consideration of Grameen Bank’s focus on microfinance and the Self-Employed Women’s Association’s (SEWA) focus on both microloans and larger structural changes

How Blacks became Blue: The 1936 African American Voting Shift From the Party of Lincoln to the New Deal Coalition
Get PDFDespite the vast research done on the African American influence in the Democratic Party, comparably little has been done on what led them to become part of the Democratic Party in the first place. This study offers an overview of the rich political history of the African American experience from the 15th Amendment’s ratification in 1870 to the 1936 presidential election. My research will reveal how Republican apathy, depression era desperation and Roosevelt’s charismatic message of relief and hope played a vital role to the historical shift of the African American voting bloc from the Republican to the Democratic Party
