What are the systems, institutions, policies and informal practices that render

What are the systems, institutions, policies and informal practices that render Blacks second-class citizens? How have African Americans collectively fought and challenged these practices? What can we learn from the specific social organizations and leaders (political, artistic, scholars) of the Black community who have made great efforts to create a village and offer different visions and tactics to improve the lives of Black people?

You’re going to pick an interesting social problem or issue. It can be anything, like an issue from the news, an issue that’s affected you personally, or an issue that you think is really important.
Once you pick the issue, you’re going to write about this issue using a sociological theorist from class.  Some questions you could answer in the paper:
– How would your theorist explain why the problem or situation happened?
– What would your theorist think should be done about the problem?
– How would your theorist explain the problem in ways that might not be the same as the general public?
-How would your theorist explain the problem in ways different from other theorists?
Theorists: Marx, Weber, Durkheim, Du Bois, Gilman, Fanon, De Beauvoir, Foucault

Read and follow the following directions.
Follow the rules for writing in this class: 12 point font, single space, one inch margins all around.
Proofread and revise your work to minimize errors, especially No Excuse Errors.
You can express opinions, but only after you have established that you know the material. The course is not really about opinions.
Draw only on course materials. Do not use outside sources. There is a plagiarism detector built into BB and it is activated. Using outside sources is an automatic fail. Using outside sources indicates that you have not read the course material. 
Quote as little as possible. Some people have quoted definitions from Conley or other materials only to demonstrate in their answers that they do not understand  the material. Using quotes lowers your grade.
Each of your answers should be 250-350 words. Get in touch with me if you don’t know how to track your word count.
At the top left of the first page include, on separate lines, your name, the date, Assignment 3.
Save the document as: your last name_102-004_Assignment 3. Save it as a Word or rtf document.
When you have finished the assignment, scroll down to Attach Files, click on Browse My Computer, and attach the file.
Answer these questions:
1. What is the Paradox Animation for chapter 6 in Conley? Explain it and give an example.
2. During McMillan’s stint in California’s Central Valley, she found the work and conditions grueling. What are some of the advantages she had over her co-workers? What insights did you learn about the American farm worker? (This is question #8 from discussion questions posted by Monroe County Community College in Monroe, Michigan.)
3. Think about one of the groups of people McMillan worked with in farming and explain their situation, using their names. Focus on a specific group. Explain their circumstances and what you saw as most important about them.
4. To talk about the rich and the poor and how society is economically stratified seems like the job of economists. Why would sociologists be interested in stratification and inequality? How does a better understanding of stratification contribute to the well-being of society?

Please Follow the following format for the paper. Choose a social welfare polic

/in /by

Please Follow the following format for the paper.
Choose a social welfare policy and program ( I chose Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)) . The paper must address population, problem, policy, and program using a research-based rationale while also applying social work values and ethical principles.  The paper must address: ( I chose the CHIP program so all following subtitles suppose to talk about CHIPS)
1.    Policy: Information should include wording, its inception, any revisions or additions. Discussion of policy should include points (a) – (c) below and give a good representation of the underlying perspectives and philosophies regarding the policy.  (The linkage between definition and policy should be clear). This information would include using a policy analysis framework as a foundation.
a.    Population: Thoroughly describe the population the policy seeks to serve.  What does the literature say about this population?  Are there other state or local policies that seek to meet the needs of this population?
b.    Problem: Thoroughly describe the problem that the policy seeks to address. What does the literature say about this problem?  How has this problem been historically addressed?  [Note: there is some overlap between population, and problem; goal in separating the two is to help you think about the person as separate from the problem consistent with social work values.]
c.    Program: Any programs that have evolved as a direct result of the policy must be addressed thoroughly in the paper/video.  Fiscal or other social advantages/disadvantages, benefits or costs of the program should be outlined.
2.    Social Policy Analysis: Use one of the frameworks outlined in the text chapter 3 when discussing the outcome of the policy. For example, an implementation analysis could be applied when evaluating how the policy was developed and implemented; or an impact appraisal would evaluate the outcome of the policy itself.
3.    Social Justice Framework:  Discussion of components above are inclusive of discussion of social work ethical principles and obligations under the Code of Ethics. Include discussion of any likely or existing mechanisms of privilege, oppression, and discrimination regarding the policy and program described.  Figure1.1 and fair process principles could be used in outlining social justice.
4.    Conclusion and Call to Action: Considering all of the factors listed above, the conclusion to the paper should articulate a call to action for social workers.  What efforts should  social workers do to improve the policy, reduce negative impacts on the population, or program modifications?
