El Pasado Está Enfrente: Descifrando la Importancia de las Perspectivas Femeninas a Través de Tiempo en “Mujer Negra” y \u3ci\u3eNostalgia de la Luz\u3c/i\u3e
No full textLas perspectivas de las mujeres han sido frecuentemente ignoradas o censuradas a lo largo de la historia, aunque las mujeres son la base de la sociedad. Eso no quiere decir que las perspectivas femeninas no existan o no puedan encontrarse en el pasado. Según la teoría del punto de vista feminista (Feminist Standpoint Theory), lo cual es detallado en muchos de los argumentos escritos por teoristas Rita Segato y Maria Lugones, las experiencias y conocimientos de las mujeres son esenciales para entender la sociedad. Esta teoría sostiene que las mujeres, debido a su posición marginada en la sociedad, tienen ideas únicas sobre las estructuras sociales, las dinámicas de poder y los sistemas de opresión, y como un grupo marginado, las mujeres tienen un punto de vista distintivo desde el cual ver e interpretar el mundo, a menudo revelando aspectos ocultos de la realidad social que están oscurecidos por narrativas dominantes. Con esta teoría en mente, al leer y analizar las perspectivas de las mujeres, podemos detectar más fácilmente la verdad y revelar una descripción más honesta del pasado. Una vez que comprendamos mejor el pasado (a través de las perspectivas femeninas que analizamos), será mucho más fácil ver el pasado cómo afecta el presente y el futuro. En el poema Mujer negra por Nancy Morejón (1975), y el documental Nostalgia de la Luz dirigido por Patricio Guzmán (2010), hay un tema recurrente de que el pasado sigue resonando en el presente, y ambos formas de media incluyen a las perspectivas de mujeres. Al ver cómo el pasado influye en el presente, a través de las menciones al colonialismo, la violencia o la violación sexual contra las mujeres, así como el trato general despectivo hacia las mujeres en estas obras, podemos averiguar qué cambios o deconstrucciones necesitamos hacer en las sociedades para crear un futuro mejor para los grupos marginados como las mujeres
Organizational Communication in the WNBA
Get PDFThere are over 42,000 organizations in the world, each of which has their own style and practice of organization communication. Out of all those organizations, the one that I chose as the subject of my research paper is the Women’s National Basketball Association, better known as the WNBA. Throughout this paper, I will provide a brief history of the WNBA, patterns that I have identified regarding communication in the WNBA, connections between communication in the WNBA and the course content, some problems I identified regarding the communication in the WNBA, and my recommendations for fixing those problems

Inviting Controversy: Political Surveys in a Polarized Nation
No full textAsking about political viewpoints in the current polarized environment of the United States is challenging. Yet, it is arguably even more important to do so because shifts in political power can have greater impacts if the parties are further apart on political and policy values. My research using surveys has primarily focused on the urban-rural distinction in politics and I have completed a major mail survey and multiple online surveys using Qualtrics participants in the past five years. In this discussion, I focus on the importance of asking about politics in surveys in ways that give respondents a voice in the process while minimizing the potential for undesirable priming effects. I also discuss the difficulty in finding external funding to do political survey research in the current political climate. If interested, the data collected from the 2018 Rural Matters Survey is available via a report on the Rural Matters website.https://digitalcommons.morris.umn.edu/special_events/1014/thumbnail.jp

\u27Sore Eyes Moon\u27 or ‘ištá wičháyazaŋ wí’ (March)
No full text‘Sore Eyes Moon’, or ‘ištá wičháyazaŋ wí’, refers to the severe snowstorms that occur in March. Historically, these storms made it difficult for Dakota peoples to see where they were going when traveling as the weather would cause ‘snow-blindness’.
In the watercolor painting, a Dakota person, wearing traditional attire, gazes at the sky against a vibrant sunset backdrop with snow and a pine tree in the background.https://digitalcommons.morris.umn.edu/calendar_posters/1002/thumbnail.jp
