I have attached both my midterm paper discussing statistics and research in Morocco and the Washington Group Short Set of Questions on Disability. The Washington Group Short Set of Questions on Disability was used in a government-sanctioned census on disability.
Enjoy!

So, I know that I am very late--but I wanted to do an art piece of many black women activists that i'm sure many of us hadn't learned about before. I hope you all like it! I provided small biographies of some of the women that are featured in the piece.. Thanks!

What is Activism?
Resistance? Allyship? Activism? All of the Above?
Last week in class, while in our off-campus Praxis site groups, we discussed “activism,” specifically, whether what we’ve doing at our Praxis sites should or can be counted as “activism.” While contemplating the question, one of my classmates brought into the conversation the word “resistance,” and the difference between resistance and activism. We agreed that it can only be considered resistance when we go into prisons to lead workshops, like the ones we did with the youth in the women’s and men’s prisons in Philadelphia, and not an act of activism.

In elementary school, I attended a Spanish language immersion program, housed within a local public school in the neighborhood adjacent to mine. My parents, thinking it would be valuable for me to begin learning another language at a young age, had entered the enrollment lottery and secured me a spot. For six years, I did not walk to school like most of my neighbors, but I took a short bus ride to the next school over with a pretty sizeable group of other kids from my neighborhood attending Spanish Immersion. Spending half the day in English class and half in Spanish, we learned to read and write simultaneously in two languages. I’m sure our parents were ecstatic at this opportunity for their children to become biliterate.

Hair is a physical marker of difference onto which social signifiers are imprinted. Hair of all kinds is reshaped and chemically altered by different processes in order to exploit socially established notions of beauty. In this way, hairstyles and hair function as social capital. Nevertheless, hegemonic interpretations of Black hair and hairstlyes inscribe additional levels of cultural and political meaning onto the ways that Black womyn decide to style their hair.
