Item Editorial: Insights in social inclusion in cities(Frontiers, 2023-04-06) Vaattovaara, Mari; Short, John RennieItem The United States Systematically Divided Humanity using Race and Religion(2024-05-16) Michelle Townsend; Dr. Noel Verzosa; Hood College Arts and Humanities; Hood College Humanitites (M.A.)Using my own personal cultural experiences and graduate studies in Humanities, I have chosen three of my previously written graduate research papers to explain how race and religion have been used in America to create and uphold systemic forms of oppression and outcasting of other human beings. These papers focus on the concepts that were used to separate Americans from its infancy by primarily using race and religion to force Native Americans and Africans into assimilation of European culture. The first paper is “Early American Religions Inflicted Brutal Racism on Native Americans using Christianity and Education” from course 560P, Faith and Belief America with Dr. Jay Harrison in Summer II 2020. In this paper, I argued that English colonizers began redefining the cultural make-up of the United States by forcing ethnic cleansing on Native Americans that were the indigenous people of North America. The second paper, “Birth of a Nation” is Based more on Propaganda than Factual History” from course 560O, Cinema in Context with Dr. Aaron Angello in Fall 2019. I explained how, even though this movie was the first blockbuster in filmmaking, at the same time, was morally unacceptable for society and created demoralizing characterizations of black Americans. Lastly, the third paper is “Comparing Three ‘Doll Test’ Findings and Recommendations” from course 560S, Outcasts and Others In Medieval And Early Modern Europe with Dr. April Morrison in Spring 2022. In this paper, I identify the complexities of negative visual imagery and the effects it has on the viewer by comparing the original “Doll Test” of 1947 to two other more recent Doll Test studies and compare the results.
