Homework help please!?

10.February, 2010

I have a paper due for my African American Studies class next week and the professor wants us to write a 3-5 sided paper on a book. The assignment is:

Drawing on the Assigned Readings below (and any other relevant class readings), provide a detailed summary (discipline, methods, etc.) and critique of

Joy DeGruy Leary, Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome: America’s Legacy of Enduring Injury and Healing

Assigned Readings

Jeffrey C. Alexander, “Toward a Theory of Cultural Trauma,” in Jeffrey C. Alexander et al., Cultural Trauma and Collective Identity, 2004.
Stanley Elkins Slavery, A Problem in American Institutional and Intellectual Life, Part 3, chap.3.

Can you help me elaborate what the assignment means? I don’t really understand the (discipline, methods, etc.) part really well. Thanks!

Dr. Degruy Leary developed a theory call post traumatic slave syndrome that explains the adaptive survival behaviour In African Americans communities throughout the U.S. and the Diaspora.

I just took in a 9 year ols mini pin. She was abused by a man. She is very skiiny. She has never been properly house trained. We are slowly getting weight on her. She listens to me quite well. She will come to me & bark if she needs to go out. But will only urinate outside. She will on occasion do it in the house. With paying close attention to her, & constantly asking her if she wants to go out, she will eagerly go out. How do I get her to start having bowel movemnets outside? I have had her 2 weeks. She is a joy, and has a ton of energy. Her favorite past time if she gets bored is to chase the cat barking. If the cat stops, she stops. So, I think she is doing it more as a playing issue. I absolutly love her. She loves to cuddle, especially if I am at the computer. She is getting very attached to me. Alothough she is leary of men. Some she likes & some she doesn’t. I have been enforcing my commands. Yet, careful not to overwhelm her with them. I was told she has gone from home to home

first of all, last time I checked, a Min Pin is a dog. You are in the ‘Cat’ category.

Is your question on how to potty train a 9 year old dog? It was kind of hard to figure out from the rambling.

I have heard that they have litter boxes for little dogs, maybe you might want to check that out.

Sorry I could not be more helpful.

“Meat Joy” performed at The Plagiarism Festival on February 6, 1988 @ Artist Television Access, San Francisco, CA.

Based on the original 1964 work by Carolee Schneemann ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolee_Schneemann ), Meat Joy was performed before an unsuspecting audience by C.Olson C., Mo O’Leary, M Woody, Flame and Rob Strange (videography) utilizing:

- 25 gallons of cow blood
- 10 de-osculated cow eyes
- a 17 lb. sea bass
- orted joyful meats and meat fragments
- an entire package of black trashbags that were taped together to form a ‘blood-dyke’ Hemo-containment zone on walls and floor
- enough white butcher paper to create blood soaked keepsake portraits for the finale.

There was much rejoicing.
