White privilege & US history

/in /by

Take a look at the Wulf, A. (2011) Gardening as politics: Digging the founding gardeners. Preview the
document article, which suggests gardening as a tool for addressing sustainability challenges grounded in the
vision of early American leaders. For context, this article is the first excerpt from a compilation by
EcoChallenge.org (formerly the Northwest Earth Institute), a nonprofit organization based in Portland, Oregon
dedicated to sustainability education. The course book is called Hungry for Change: Food, Ethics, and
Sustainability.
Examine this article from a social sustainability lens, considering this recommendation from Taylor & Klingle
(2006):
“We…need to expand our notion of what constitutes nature and who speaks on its behalf. Unless
environmentalists take a full reckoning of their past to find other voices to remember and celebrate, the
movement may grow ever more narrow and irrelevant.”
Write a post addressing the following questions:
Critique this article. What aspects of U.S. history does the article ignore?
How do these omissions reflect a culture of white immunity or privilege, reflective of the environmental
movement’s elitist past?
When a sustainability coursebook begins with an article like this, what might the impact be on
environmentalists (or people just beginning to learn about sustainability) who are members of minoritized
groups?

Health Care in Switzerland

/in /by

For this assignment, research a medical care system that is provided within a foreign country (not in the United
States). For example, you can conduct an Internet search by looking up phrases such as “health care in
Germany.”
Once you have examined the medical care system in that country, address the following questions in your
essay:
Provide a brief introduction. What country did you select, and how do they provide medical care to citizens?
What do they offer or do not offer when compared to the United States system? Does their system appear
“more ethical”?
What workplace laws or regulations are in place? How does law impact healthcare professionals of that
country?
Do you believe their laws contradict or support the professional obligations of a medical provider? What
parameters are in place to address topics such as death and dying, quality of life issues, or right to life issues?
As a leader in the medical community, do you believe that having free health care is a basic human right and
you should advocate for free medical care? Support your position with an example based on legal or ethical
perspectives.
Support your essay with at least two references from the CSU Online Library. Your essay should be two pages
in length, not counting the title or reference pages. Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment,
including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Please note that no abstract is needed.
