Film Review on intersectional experience of race

When was the film released? Which time period did the film intend to reflect?

The Film the Glory was released in the year 1989. It reflects a period of America civil war that occurred in the year 1861-1865. This movie addresses a specific segment of the American forces that composed entirely of the Black -Americans. In the movie, the Black -Americans were fighting prejudges both in the army and the confederates.

How does the main protagonist respond to or reflect an intersectional experience of race, class, gender, and sexual orientation?
The movie gained popularity first and foremost because of the courage in dealing with the thorny issue of discrimination and racism that existed in the American army. The movie shows how the lives of black Americans were desperate because they were segregated not only in the society but also in places of work such as in the army where the confederates failed to treat them as soldiers. The group of black- Americans formed an infant army that later became bloody during the civil war as they fought for their country. The movie shows how the government was also racist in discriminating black Americans. Colonel Robert Shaw who was the commander of the army and white man is finally seen been buried with his mean without shoes. The failed attack that happened in 1863 at Battery Wagner was an indication of victory that the evil of racism and discrimination had finally been worn. The movie shows how the confederates were defeated paving way for a new dawn of freedom that left people with a deep sense of national pride.

Do the characters appear to be wrestling with or challenging any labor theories we have discussed in class?
The characters in this movie seem to be challenging some labor theories such as that of the Labor Theory of Value. This theory acknowledges that in capitalism, employees are overworked for less pay so that the employers could maximize their profits. The movie seems to be conflicting with this theory since it seen to advocate for equality in the treatment of workers. All the workers should be treated the same irrespective of their color, origin, language or races. The movie shows that the black American soldiers did enjoy equal rights with their white counterparts. This not only affected their productivity but also made them fight for justice. Therefore, the movie characters advocate for fair pay of workers according to their contribution but not discriminated on the basis of their color and races.

Identify the technical use of camera angles, music or other filmmaking methods you find particularly effective (or not so effective) to carry the story through to the end.
There is one thing that I found interesting the movie uses the soundtrack. As I watched the film, the soundtracks were enjoyable than anything else. They were fairly accurate. The images were also clear and showed everything depending on the direction of the camera.

Would you recommend this film to other courses? Which ones? Why or why not?
Yes, I would recommend the film to a few courses. This movie is crucial for people studying law and those who may want to settle historical injustices in the courts. It addresses discrimination and racism that existed for ages. The movie is good for librarians who may want to classify information on racism and discrimination. The movie is useful for people studying political science so that they can pass legislation that will address the problem of racism and discrimination effectively. This course will benefit a lot from the knowable that one gains from watching the movie.

Societies of engineering professionals

Societies of engineering professionals—ASCE, AIME, ASME, and AIEE.

Please answer the following discussion questions:

Layton describes the approaches of the four founder societies of engineering professionals–ASCE, AIME, ASME, and AIEE. In 3-4 sentences, state which of these organizations would be most appealing to you to join based on its membership criteria, stances on professional behavior, and relationship to business, and why. In 1-2 sentences, state which would be least appealing and why? Then, identify three posts by your classmates that identified different societies. Respond and let them know whether you are convinced by their reasoning, or suggest a reason why they may wish to reconsider their initial post (2-3 sentences total).
Burr argues that engineers should study mathematics even if “It matters little that the engineer is seldom required in his practical life to use the pure mathematics for purposes of investigation.” Welch, by contrast, argues that “Too much time spent on scientific abstractions and refinements (however such useful things may be to the philosopher), is more than wasted by the engineer; it unfits him for practical purposes.” Which author do you agree with more? Explain why in 2-3 sentences.
The lecture on women and minorities in engineering included several examples of exceptional individuals who overcame great odds to make important engineering contributions. Which individual did you find most impressive in terms of their ability to overcome the challenges they faced? Explain why in 2-3 sentences, identifying both the challenges and their accomplishments.

Scenario
Cash budgets forecast cash needs to achieve operational goals, especially in terms of expected financing. For this assessment, you will act as a controller at a manufacturing company called the Spicer Corporation and your task will be to prepare a cash budget and an associated memo.

Your Role
You are a controller working for the vice president of finance at a manufacturing company called Spicer Corporation.

Requirements
The vice president has requested you create a cash budget (5 pages) for the coming year:

Include a supplement schedule for cash receipts for the coming year.
Assume management wants to maintain a minimum cash balance of $50,000.
When you complete the cash budget, include the component parts:

Sales budget.
Purchasing budget.
Payments budget.
Cash receipts budget.

In addition to the cash budget, the vice president has also requested that you prepare a memo to management (3 pages) that explains the purpose of a cash budget, its relationship to operational goals, and the process you performed to create it. As part of the memo, identify at least three key aspects of the current cash budget that management should note. For each key aspect, be sure to discuss how the overall cash budget will be impacted if there is a change in the expectation.

Use the Memo Template [DOC] to structure your memo.

Deliverable Format
Since the vice president of finance has requested these documents, you should make the cash budget and associated memo as clear, well-organized, and readable as possible. The vice president has requested the memo for management be 3 pages so that you have enough space to provide some scholarly and/or professional context.

Communication: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with the needs and expectations of senior corporate leadership and other stakeholders. For this scenario, assume the vice president of finance expects original work, critical thinking, and scholarly sources. Your writing must be free of errors that detract from the overall message.

The memo is a professional document and should therefore follow the corresponding MBA Academic and Professional Document Guidelines, including single-spaced paragraphs.

Resources: Incorporate at least two resources that are scholarly and/or professional. So that your imaginary vice president of finance can locate more information about cash budgeting, include a reference page at the end of your report.

Budget length: According to template.

Research paper about religion Available

Research paper about religion

You can find the topic details and the required format in the attachment.

1) Compare and contrast two of the three major sects of Islam: Sunni, Shia, and Sufi. A strong paper will include the historical factors that contributed to the creation of the sects, an overview of the major tenants and beliefs of these groups, and a discussion on the current state of affairs between their members in a specific country (i.e., Iran, Iraq, Yemen, or Syria). Food for thought: What does the diversity between the sects, and the wide range of interpretations within Islam, tell us about Muslims/Islam?

2) Compose a survey on the role/status of women in one of the following traditions:
Christianity, Judaism, or Islam. A strong paper should narrow the discussion to one or two countries and include a discussion on the roles and rights of women in both the religious and secular spheres. Possible subtopics for this survey might include marriage, divorce, sex, menstruation, childbirth, clothing, participation in organized religion, and/or governmental service (choose two or three at most). Food for thought: Eight Muslim majority countries have elected female heads of state since 1988, but the USA has never followed suit. Are the rights and privileges of women in Christianity and Judaism, measurably better than those of Islam?
