Classism in Philanthropy

It’s a class in the history of philanthropy and charity.

My paper I wanted to write on Classism in Philanthropy

The haves and the have nots have been woven into American society for centuries and philanthropy has been the fabric in creating classism in America. Do philanthropic dollars create classism and dictate how the other half lives? The history of classism in philanthropy shows that the top percentage of Americans dictate how money is allocated to help those who are less fortunate but rather than assisting with economic and social change, their lack of research in areas to fund is causing more damage. What can be done to change that social divide?
1. History of philanthropy and classes
2. Money allocation how money is spent
3. Social change in philanthropic dollars

Conclusion

Hobby lobby case

The basis for this discussion is the U.S. Supreme Court case of Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.

This case is about a business’ leadership making real business decisions about employer-provided employee health care benefits. This decision violated a government mandate that private for-profit businesses provide certain types of birth control benefits. The company, Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc., took a stand against the government’s position, based on the business ownership’s religious beliefs, raising a Constitutional question under the First Amendment.

In addition to the Hobby Lobby case itself, please consider, in particular, the Horwitz article listed in your Required Readings, as well as other research on the subject, to inform your own thoughts on the following points. and discuss in a narrative post.

Please do not simply list “questions and answers.” Address these questions within an essay format.

What are the constitutional implications on business exemplified by this case? How was the 1st Amendment involved? How was the government violating Hobby Lobby’s 1st Amendment right, according to the U.S. Supreme Court?
Hobby Lobby Stores. Inc. is a family owned business, described as “closely held.” What does this mean, i.e., what is a closely held corporation? Did this make a difference in the court’s consideration of Hobby Lobby’s 1st Amendment religious freedom argument? Would the same argument work for a large publicly held corporation like IBM? Should it? Why or why not? What are the social and political interests in play that the Court endeavored to balance in the legal setting?
Should a business be able to invoke the 1st Amendment protection at all on the basis of the business owner(s)’ personal beliefs as human beings? Why or why not? If the business is a separate person, as the Court has held in finding that the business has an independent Constitutional right, how can this “corporate person,” as an entity, manifest an independent religious belief? (For this question you might want to also take a look at the Supreme Court’s opinion in the Citizens United case.)
Share any additional thoughts.
Please clearly and thoroughly discuss these points in a well organized post. Your text and other required readings and research should form a foundation for your discussion. At a minimum your thoughts should be informed by the court’s opinion in Hobby Lobby, the Horwitz article, and your textbook readings. You may have other ideas — research further to support them. We invite and expect respectful debate in the discussions. Enjoy the challenge!

Ethics of corporate managers is addressed on page 12 of the textbook. Additional source of ethics is available from the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) (google it). Sustainability Accounting is addressed on pages 12 to 13 of the textbook. Please review.
On page 320 and 421of the textbook, you are introduced to The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).

Read the report of at least one company and identify at least ten metrics used in reporting the entities responsibilities to Planet, Profit and People. What are they measuring? Do you think there is any “green washing” of data in the reports?

To what extent does our social class background affect our life chances?

***for the writer—->I want to look into the city of Chicago because of the variety of social classes, if you can do that. If that doesn’t work, use anywhere but remember it’s anthropological!

Instructions:
Each student will be required to write and submit either four film analyses, or a combination of two film/cultural analyses and two ethnographic reviews/critical essays, each of which will be worth 5% of total grade. These analyses or essays must be done based on assigned assignments prompts or instructions based on assigned films or selected culture in consultation with me, or as advised/approved.
In addition, each student will be expected to conduct a mini-independent research project, which must be approved by me at some point during the semester. You will also be required to turn in a well-thought-out essay (of about 5 -7 pages, double spaced with standard academic references) and to do a short seminar (conference style) presentation of your research work in class at the end of the semester. The project will be based on topic of your choosing and interest and about a given cultural context, setting, issue or norm but must reflect highlight, or draw upon readings from the course and must also focus on a selected topic/theme, theory, or concept covered in the course. Consider this paper an attempt at developing a publishable journal article. It must conform to acceptable academic standards of citation and referencing, keeping in mind that plagiarism is unacceptable and has serious consequences including but not limited to receiving a failing grade in the course. You may use any citation/referring style, but remember that, it is unacceptable to use two or more styles in a single work. Be consistent: whichever style you chose, stick with that. I advise you using the APA style because it is simple or easy to use.

Reflection Journal 2022a

The purpose of this reflective journal is self-reflection regarding the role in the process of self-reflection as a PMHNP provider. Through reflective practice, the student will evaluate their own emotional health and recognize one’s own feelings as well as one’s ability to monitor and manage those feelings. The point of the exercise is to learn yourself, your triggers, the types of cases you end up getting overly involved with, and those you’d rather refer to someone else. The idea is to be able to personally reflect on your behaviors/thoughts/decisions and how those impact you in the role of PMHNP.

My writing:
Earlier this year, on the weekend of my 20th birthday, my little cousin was shot and killed by her friend. It was really hard for my family and I since she did not have life insurance. So unfortunately, I had to work double my usual hours at work during finals week to contribute to her funeral. This was not the first, but the fifth death I have dealt with during my time at Xavier. It is so hard for me to admit, but it was easier to say bye to my uncles, aunt, and cousins than it was for Nariah. I am 10 years older than my sister and 19 years older than my brother, so Nariah was the closest thing I had to a sister close enough in age to give me comfort and advice. She was going to graduate high school this past May, and attend Xavier with me to follow my footsteps in becoming an attorney. For days, I could not even believe that she was actually gone, and sat in my dorm crying all day. I could not bathe, I could barely eat unless I binged and ate too much. All I did every day was go to work, do delivery services like DoorDash and Postmates for extra money, handle everything that needed to be done for my resident assistant position, and try to hold myself together. Thankfully, I reached out to one of my managers in housing and she brought me to the counseling center at Xavier. I met with her two to three times a week, let my family and friends know how I felt to share the burden of grievance, pushed myself to study for my finals, and found small things in life I was grateful for. Day by day, I progressed and allowed myself to express my emotions and cry when I needed to. I ended up working hard enough to contribute to Nariah’s celebration of life and ended the semester meeting my academic goals. I am much stronger than I was before
and am capable of thriving because I now know the value in reaching out and allowing myself to get help when I am in need.
