Look up the myth or misconception below concerning the “Vanishing Indian” and explain in your speech why you think the myth rather than the reality has been immortalized in the American consciousness. (A great place to start: )

 (short description of the author’s book, The Vanishing American)

In your speech, demonstrate the breadth of knowledge you have gained from this course. Do not forget to use in text citations because you will be using multiple sources. 

1950s post-war life.   Some people see it as the epitome as the American Dream (e.g., the availability of jobs, new suburban housing, and an overall feeling of national prosperity), while others critique it for promoting rigid gender roles, mindless consumption, deepening racial divides and limiting economic opportunities for minorities.

Either way, May’s historical analysis shows us that the suburbs, the renewed emphasis on family life,  post WW II economic growth did not descend out of thin air.  The mass migration of white Americans to new suburban communities was supported by government investment, new infrastructure in the form of highways, shopping malls, and neighborhoods, all of which were indicative of the USA’s post-war prosperity and an emphasis on mass consumption. 

What aspects of 1950s and 1960s history did you find interesting and/or troubling?  

Using May’s  chapter, answer the following questions:

• What are some of the benefits of 1950s and 1960s Cold War U.S. society did you found interesting?  (e.g., think about highways, shopping areas, upward mobility, affordability, etc)
• What are some of the negative consequences that you found particularly disturbing? (e.g., think about red-lining, white flight, decline of urban businesses, gender roles, closeted sexual identities, etc.)
• Do you have experiences (positive or negative) with suburban living and/or nuclear family structures?  If so, how does May’s analysis help you contextualize and/or think differently about them?

Please use at least two key words and engage with May’s texts at length. Remember to conclude with an open-ended question on your first post.  You’re posting two times on this thread!

 Discussion: 

1. Review the safety and effectiveness of  for the treatment of Obesity. 
2.  Include your opinion about holistic and allopathic care.
3. See this  
4. See this for . 

 Word limit 500 words 

 Please make sure to provide citations and references (in APA format) for your work.   

For this particular thread,   please locate and post an advertisement that you think lends itself to a discussion/analysis of the ways in which women’s (and other) bodies are enlisted to promote the beauty ideal and corporate capitalism, consumption, etc.  Briefly tell us where you found the ad and who you think is its target audience.  

Select ONE of the readings below that you want us to use as a framework:

• Shaw Lee, Chapter 4, “Inscribing Gender on the Body” 
• Nomy Lamm, “Fat Revolution”

Think about the following questions as you locate (and maybe analyze?) your ad:

• Is this ad empowering?  Or maybe not so much upon closer inspection?
• What is its underlying purpose? Product? Audience?
• What might this ad tell us about the relationship between corporate capitalism and women’s bodies?
• How might Shaw and Lee,and Nomy Lamm respond to this ad?

You are welcome to pose a specific question OR simply ask your peers how the article and its key terms lend insight (or challenge?) to the advertisement.    Responders, I expect you to engage extensively with the text and the key terms to inform your analysis/opinion.  You must use two (2) key terms or specific concepts from the required text to frame your analysis.

People who post first have dibs on what article they want to discuss.  All articles need to be used at some point, so if you post later in the week, you’ll have to use the article/documentary that’s “left.” (We’ll have a couple of repeats, but that’s okay…)

Please note that posting an ad DOES NOT count as a post for this week.   Everyone will have to engage extensively with at least two (2) different images/discussions on this thread. 

Good luck and I look forward to seeing what you find!

• What do glossophobia, achluoyphobia, acrophobia, aerophobia and agoraphobia all have in common?  Fear of something.  Statistics and its relationship with math can cause fear in students. Share what you do when you encounter something you fear. Be specific and relate the process to the subject of statistics. Compare different research methodologies you have encountered during your research in the program.Which did you enjoy the most? Which did you find most difficult?
