@LexisWilliams1 @bmay704 I feel that the media recognizes it's influence and uses this to maintain power.

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

@jayladanyelle1 Very true. The government has tried to stall progress many times before.

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

@BriMorgan1997 @Cherry_D21 Good point. The norm of "whiteness" is a tool of white hegemony.

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

@Cherry_D21 A good example of this is how different groups have become "white" over time.

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

@Cherry_D21 This shows the development of in groups and out groups. Also shows how "whiteness" is a social construct.

Inclusion of different religious organizations did not really begin until the Clinton administration. Later presidents continued this tradition of giving different groups a platform for recognition. Pg131 #NQSoc221

Many communities in the Midwest developed from polish immigrants. These were known as "Polonias." Pg126 #NQSoc221

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

The way Italian Americans practice Catholicism differs from Irish Americans. Many roles in the church were dominated by Irish; Italian American identity began to revolve around "festivals" for saints. Pg124 #NQSoc221

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

Many Irish Americans saw priesthood as a way of becoming important in leadership roles in the US. Shows how becoming "white" is a process and race is a social construct. #NQSoc221

"Ethnicity that exists may be more of a result of living in the US rather than importing practices from the past or the old country." Pg117 #NQSoc221

Differences in language and religion impacted which Europeans were seen as white and which ones weren't. #NQSoc221 pg113

Chinese and Japanese Americans have become "more acceptable and less alien to whites." Pg298 #NQSOC221

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

The Supreme Court upheald the decision to detain all Japanese Americans during WW2 without even considering the constitutionality. Pg293 #NQSOC221

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

"Japanese Americans distinguish sharply between themselves according to the number of generations a persons family has been in the US." Pg291 #NQSOC221

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

Many cultural aspects of China remain in Chinese American communities such as parental authority. Pg289 #NQSOC221

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

There is a false myth that Chinese Americans and Chinatowns do not face any problems. Pg287 #NQSOC221

[Griffin Janosky @GJanosky]

There has been a large Chinese-American population in the US since the 1800's. Pg285 #NQSOC221
