      为什么不是 the main problem schools face

      在这个语境中,"problem" 像一个障碍物,它主动地“面对”或“朝向”了学校,因此使用主动语态的 "facing" 是最自然和常见的表达。

    1. Когда я копаю землю, моё тело не знает жеста заранее. Почва отвечает мне неодинаково. Она влажная, вязкая, холодная, иногда каменистая. Орудие не просто продолжение руки, она становится местом встречи. Каждый толчок изменяет и землю, и меня. Жест не повторяется, он каждый раз нащупывается заново. Здесь тело утрачивает прозрачность. Оно больше не совпадает с намерением. Оно запаздывает, устаёт, прислушивается. В этом замедлении тело обнаруживает себя как вписанное в мир. Земля задаёт ритм дыханию, темпу, паузам. Время перестаёт быть фоном и становится ощутимым. Тяжесть в труде не нейтральна. Она оседает в теле, оставляет след. Усталость здесь не просто сигнал, но изменение стиля присутствия. Мир не отступает после усилия, он остаётся изменённым. И вместе с ним изменяется тело. Вознаграждение не исчерпывает смысла этого различия. Существенно то, что в труде действие направлено не на тело как на цель, а через тело — к миру. Тело перестаёт быть центром и становится узлом отношений. Оно не владеет ситуацией, но участвует в ней.
    1. Над белым замком всё белым-бело. В зеркальный зал крадётся слепо ужас. Вцепился в стены плющ, предсмертно тужась. Дороги в мир давно перемело. Пустое небо виснет тяжело. И к двери мимо белых балдахинов тоска прокралась. Но, часы покинув, куда-то время умирать ушло.
    1. Деревья складками коры мне говорят об ураганах, и я их сообщений странных не в силах слышать средь нежданных невзгод, в скитаньях постоянных, один, без друга и сестры. Сквозь рощу рвётся непогода, сквозь изгороди и дома, и вновь без возраста природа, и дни и вещи обихода, и даль пространств — как стих псалма. Как мелки с жизнью наши споры, как крупно то, что против нас. Когда б мы поддались напору стихии, ищущей простора, мы выросли бы во сто раз. Всё, что мы побеждаем, — малость, нас унижает наш успех. Необычайность, небывалость зовёт борцов совсем не тех. Так ангел Ветхого завета нашел соперника под стать, как арфу он сжимал атлета, которого любая жила струною ангелу служила, чтоб схваткой гимн на нём сыграть. Кого тот ангел победил, тот правым, не гордясь собою, выходит из такого боя в сознанье и расцвете сил. Не станет он искать побед. Он ждёт, чтоб высшее начало его всё чаще побеждало, чтобы расти ему в ответ.

    1. Пока ты ловишь то, что сам бросаешь,всё это ловкость и гроши удач –;но если ты ловцом с судьбой играешь,когда она к твоим срединам мячнаправит не спросив, что ты готов,умело выверяя расстояньелекалами божественных мостов, –способности ловца здесь – достоянье,но мира, не твоё. Пусть в твой черёдв ответ нашлись бы мужество и сила;нет: это всё бы время погасилои ты уже швырнул бы... (словно год,что птиц в полёт швыряет вереницы,тепло перегоняя юной птицыпо следу старой  за моря) и лишьтогда в дерзаньи этом ты – игрок.Но ты бросок уже не усложнишь,не облегчишь. В свой мир в урочный срок метеорит из рук твоих сорвётся...

      Rainer Maria Rilke

      Solang du Selbstgeworfnes fängst, ist alles

      Geschicklichkeit und läßlicher Gewinn –; erst wenn du plötzlich Fänger wirst des Balles, den eine ewige Mit-Spielerin

      dir zuwarf, deiner Mitte, in genau gekonntem Schwung, in einem jener Bögen aus Gottes großem Brücken-Bau: erst dann ist Fangen-Können ein Vermögen, –

      nicht deines, einer Welt. Und wenn du gar zurückzuwerfen Kraft und Mut besäßest, nein, wunderbarer: Mut und Kraft vergäßest und schon geworfen hättest... (wie das Jahr

      die Vögel wirft, die Wandervogelschwärme, die eine ältre einer jungen Wärme hinüberschleudert über Meere –) erst in diesem Wagnis spielst du gültig mit. Erleichterst dir den Wurf nicht mehr; erschwerst dir ihn nicht mehr. Aus deinen Händen tritt

      das Meteor und rast in seine Räume…

    1. Reports Information, Organized Information, or Interpreted Information. Select the category based on whether the information summarizes source material, groups information by theme, or explains connections and insights.

      Grouping your categories may give clarity when writing.

    2. (1)  Accurately reports information from the sources using different phrases and sentences; (2)  Organized in such a way that readers can immediately see where the information from the sources overlap;. (3)  Makes sense of the sources and helps the reader understand them in greater depth.

      Keep these key features in mind when it comes to writing. Make a checklist and check your boxes as you go

    3. Synthesis is related to but not the same as classification, division, or comparison and contrast.  Instead of attending to categories or finding similarities and differences, synthesizing sources is a matter of pulling them together into some kind of harmony.

      Try to keep this in mind when asked to write a synthesis essay. Connect ideas and information and don't forget to explain how it all connects.

    4. At its most basic level, a synthesis involves combining two or more summaries, but synthesis writing is more difficult than it might at first appear because this combining must be done in a meaningful way, and the final essay must generally be thesis-driven

      Definition of synthesis, keep in mind.

    1. What Did Jimmy Kimmel Say About Charlie Kirk? TV Monologue in Full

      It was very interesting that this article was literally just the monologue of what Jimmy Kimmel said. There's not really any "think pieces" that sway any opinions

    1. Twenty-one year old Mehmed had an army of over 80,000 men, against the 8,000 defending the city. But the Byzantines had the Walls of Theodosius, which had repelled every attacker since their building in 413.

      This is interesting that the dramatic imbalance in forces, showing how a small defending army relied on massive, historic walls to withstand a much larger invading army.

    2. This is not an entirely inaccurate designation, because there was not only a recovery from the cultural chaos and economic disaster caused by the plague, but an explosion of learning and creativity throughout the Europe.

      The sentence shows that Europe didn’t just recover after the plague, but also experienced major growth in learning and creativity.

    1. Kidney structure

      High-Level Summary

      The kidneys are bean-shaped organs protected by three outer layers and organized internally into the cortex, medulla, and renal pelvis. Nephrons in the cortex filter blood supplied by a highly branched vascular network that enters and exits through the renal hilum. Urine formed by nephrons flows through the renal pyramids into calyces, then the renal pelvis, and finally the ureter. Each kidney contains over one million nephrons, which are either cortical or juxtamedullary, depending on their position relative to the medulla.

      Study Notes: Kidney Structure 1. External Kidney Structure

      The kidney is surrounded by three protective layers (outer → inner):

      • Renal fascia Tough connective tissue Anchors kidney to surrounding structures

      • Perirenal fat capsule Cushions and stabilizes the kidney

      • Renal capsule Thin, tough layer directly covering kidney surface

      • Internal Kidney Regions

      The kidney has three main internal regions:

      Renal Cortex (outer region) Granular appearance Contains nephrons (functional units of the kidney) Site of blood filtration

      Renal Medulla (middle region) Made of renal pyramids (cone-shaped tissue masses) Each kidney has ~8 pyramids Renal columns lie between pyramids and carry blood , vessels Pyramid tips = renal papillae, which point toward the , pelvis

      Renal Pelvis (inner region) Located at the hilum Funnel-shaped urine collection area Drains urine into the ureter

      1. Hilum of the Kidney

      2. Concave region of the kidney

      3. Entry/exit point for: Renal arteries Renal veins Nerves

      4. Exit point for the ureter

      5. Urine Flow Pathway

      6. Minor calyces → Major calyces → Renal pelvis → Ureter → Urinary bladder

      7. Renal Lobes

      8. A renal lobe = one renal pyramid + surrounding cortical tissue

      9. Functional subdivision of the kidney

      Blood Supply of the Kidney (In Order) 1. Aorta 2. Renal arteries 3. Segmental arteries 4. Interlobar arteries (run through renal columns) 5. Arcuate arteries (arch at cortex–medulla boundary) 6. Cortical radiate arteries 7. Afferent arterioles 8. Glomerular capillaries (nephrons)

      Venous return: Veins follow the same path in reverse. Same names as arteries except no segmental veins. Drain into the inferior vena cava.

      Nephrons (Functional Units) Each kidney contains >1 million nephrons Located mainly in the renal cortex

      Types of Nephrons Cortical nephrons (≈85%) Located deep in cortex Short loops of Henle Juxtamedullary nephrons Located near cortex–medulla boundary Long loops of Henle Important for urine concentration

    1. We believe that our daily interactions with one anotheras Indigenous and non-Indigenous queer people across these relational ge-ographies of allyship provide numerous possibilities for furthering decolonialefforts upon these lands that continue to be colonized.

      This passage connects to feminist frameworks that value lived and embodied knowledge. It reflects Moraga and Anzaldúa’s concept of “theory in the flesh,” where knowledge emerges from material experience, and aligns with feminist critiques of abstract, detached theory discussed in class.

    2. While large-scale actions such as rallies,

      This challenged my understanding of activism. I used to associate political action mainly with protests, but the authors show that decolonization also happens through everyday relational practices care, responsibility, and accountability to land and community.

    3. Thus, we call on non-Indigenous queers to think about a politics of ac-countability instead of a politics of inclusion

      This connects to class discussions on women of colour feminism, particularly critiques raised in This Bridge Called My Back, where Moraga and Anzaldúa show how white feminism has historically erased women of colour’s lived experiences. Similarly, Hunt and Holmes demonstrate how white queer politics can erase Indigenous queer and Two-Spirit perspectives, reinforcing the need to center those historically marginalized rather than expanding existing colonial frameworks.

    4. protests and blockades are frequently acknowledged as sites of resistance,the daily actions undertaken by individual Indigenous people, families, andcommunities often go unacknowledged but are no less vital to decolonialprocesses.

      This challenged my understanding of activism. I used to associate political action mainly with protests, but the authors show that decolonization also happens through everyday relational practices care, responsibility, and accountability to land and community.

    5. inspired by our community-based work, we also know firsthandthe importance of lived, embodied and interpersonal engagement with

      Hunt and Holmes reject detached, objective ways of knowing. This aligns with bell hooks’ argument that feminist politics must be rooted in lived experience and Sara Ahmed’s idea that feminist theory is something we practice in everyday life.

    6. Although the concept of decolonization has been taken up by criticalscholars working in a range of disciplines in recent years, including queertheory, examinations of settler colonialism often remain peripheral to the-orizations of queer rights and gender and sexuality more broadly

      The authors explain that mainstream queer theory and activism often overlook settler colonialism. In my own words, queer politics can reproduce colonial assumptions when it treats gender and sexuality as separate from land, Indigenous history, and sovereignty.

    7. Here, writing in the Canadiancontext, we take decolonization to be inherently connected to the lands,lives, histories, and futures of the Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island,

      This helped me reflect on my own position as someone living on Indigenous land in Canada. The authors make clear that decolonization is not metaphorical it is about land, treaty responsibilities, and recognizing Indigenous sovereignty in everyday life.

    Annotators

    1. And I never get to lay back

      In this verse, as well as in the previous one, 2Pac establishes a relation of identity between blackness, restriction and stress: being Black inevitably entails a heightened sense of danger, an alert about one's surroundings that can never falter without risking life itself. If this theme, closely related to the body, interests you, I recommend reading Ta-Nehisi Coates' Between the World and Me, in which the author explores what being Black in 1990s Baltimore was like in a heartfelt letter to his son and, ultimately, to all members of the Black community.

    2. war on the streets

      At the time in which 2Pac sang, there was a sharp rivalry among hip-hop singers of the East Coast and those of the West Coast, in which Shakur himself was implicated with and died for. Moreover, streets feuds among gangs were ferocious, mostly due to the control of drug markets. If you are interested in looking more into the topic, here is a 1990 short news special on L.A. youth gangs: https://youtu.be/-W_jhoknV1Y?si=8YSEmzi6PiZFwn5l.

    3. We gotta make a changeIt's time for us as a people to start makin' some changesLet's change the way we eat, let's change the way we liveAnd let's change the way we treat each other

      Again, similarl to the "We gotta start makin' changes" verse, there seems to be glimpse of hope through intentional actions to improve the world.

    4. You gotta operate the easy way

      This verse and the following ones delve into a moral dilemma: the only way to survive in this ruthless America for Black people is "operating the easy way", which means going behind the law. Already introduced at the beginning of the song, the idea of committing crimes as a result of poverty and lack of resources is here confirmed. The "G" is made illegally, by selling drugs to a child. When confronted with the immorality of his action, the man answers that he "gotta get paid", meaning that morals and ethics come second when the priority is making ends meet. https://americansongwriter.com/the-painful-meaning-behind-the-song-changes-by-tupac/

    5. And although it seems heaven sentWe ain't ready, to see a black President, uh

      What 2Pac considered impossible actually occurred in 2009, when Barack Obama was elected President of the United States and then again in 2012, when he was reelected. Nevertheless, his presidency was filled with conspiracy theories (especially revolving around his being born in the Unites States) and controversies that tried to undermine the figure of the President. Ultimately, this may suggest that the United States was not ready for a black President.

    6. Huey

      The "Huey" mentioned is Huey Newton was the co-founder (with Bobby Seale) of the Black Panther Party in 1966. (https://americansongwriter.com/the-painful-meaning-behind-the-song-changes-by-tupac/) The Black Panther was a 1960s revolutionary party whose original purpose was that of protecting Blacks from the attack of police officers and eventually extended its scope "to a Marxist revolutionary group that called for the arming of all African Americans, the exemption of African Americans from the draft and from all sanctions of so-called white America, the release of all African Americans from jail, and the payment of compensation to African Americans for centuries of exploitation by white Americans". (https://www.britannica.com/topic/Black-Panther-Party)

    7. The 1990s: 2Pac ft. Talent—Changes

      Setting the scene: the song was recorded in 1992 and released six years later in 2Pac's posthumous album Greatest Hits. It features Talent, an R&B trio formed by Ernest “Bishop” Dixon, Marlon “Castor Troy” Hatcher and Keith “Casino” Murrell. As mentioned earlier, the song samples Bruce Hornsby and the Range's The Way It is and addresses the same social themes. A dive into the historical context: what happened in the 1990s? * A new President, the Democratic Bill Clinton, was elected and stayed in charge from 1993 to 2001. in 1996, he promoted the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act which restricted governmental assistance to families in distress. Presidente Bill Clinton * In the early 1990s, the country entered a severe recession, which was apparently overcome by the mid-1990s. * Black businesses bloomed and Black celebrities (such as Micheal Jackson, Michal Jordan and Oprah Winfrey) started to appear and constituted the first "Black bourgeoisie". However, this was not the reality of common, middle or lower-class African-Americans: in some inner cities, between 30% and 43% of the population in poor neighborhoods (such as East New York, the South Bronx, South Central Los Angeles, Chicago's South Side) was jobless. Many of those "who had once held stable blue-color jobs, low-wage service jobs, such as in the fast-food industry" relied on occasional and informal activities (braiding hair, childcare, car repair...). * The abuse of drugs that had exploded the previous decade went on, especially among poors. * Mass incarceration persisted: in 1990, prisoners reached one million. "By 2000, one-third of all black males in their twenties were under the control of the criminal justice system—either in prison or jail, on parole, probation, or awaiting trial. The major reason for this disproportion in incarceration is the stark racism that continues to pervade the criminal justice system. […] The socio-economic and political consequences of mass incarceration for the black community have been profound. Hundreds of thousands of households have been destroyed". (https://www.amistadresource.org/the_future_in_the_present/social_and_economic_issues.html). As a consequence, in many instances, there were one-parent families: mothers were left to raise their children alone. La gente sta visitando il corridoio di una prigione. https://www.amistadresource.org/the_future_in_the_present/social_and_economic_issues.html https://www.ncpedia.org/anchor/united-states-1990s#:~:text=Labor%20unions%20believed%20it%20would,countries%20with%20weak%20pollution%20controls

    8. nigga

      Just as the previous term, this one is charged with a derogatory connotation, so much as it is preferred to refer to it with the euphemistic expression "N-word", which emcompasses both this word and its -er variant. The phenomenon that allowed the erosion of the -er ending is called r-dropping: the -r is replaced by a schwa (ə), an indistinct vowel pronounced "uh". These terms have always been linked with white supremacy, racism and white power. Even though the two terms may seem synonyms, in fact there is a difference: the -er ending word is strictly connected with the all-encompassing hatred and contempt towards black people, whereas the second one is perceived as a term of endearment when uttered by someone belonging to the Black community. Indeed, starting from the 1980s, the word has underwent a process of reclaiming (also called semantic inversion or looping) which corresponds to "taking a word meant as a slur and reappropriating it as a term of endearment" (https://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/national/2014/11/09/the-n-word-an-entrenched-racial-slur-now-more-prevalent-than-ever/?utm_term=.1590a4928864). This strategy allows the originally oppressive term to be re-semantized (that is, to acquire a new meaning) and used to celebrate the community's unique identity and humanity as "an act of redemption by black folk. The word survives on the conditions that black folks have inscribed for it and nobody else can take that. And it becomes violent when other people try to take it and use it." Indeed, white people "have created the word in the first place, but […] they have lost the power to use it with impunity, they have lost the power to reclaim it." […] "If you understand the history of the word and how it's been used, it's not for white people to use […] So if you're not black you can't do that. You actually can't use the word in the way that we use it. It's not possible, because you're not in that space. So any other usage of it is completely wrong." (https://www.bbc.com/news/stories-53749800). https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/N-word https://share.google/2p6rElVA4Vin0v2cC https://www.dailydot.com/irl/how-not-to-use-the-n-word/

    9. 'Cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight

      Apart from the reference to crack, this verse has another important element to be noted: 2Pac is trying to debunk the myth that only African-Americans use drugs. In fact, this 1995 report clearly shows racial disparity in connection to arrests for drug sale and possession: https://bjs.ojp.gov/content/pub/pdf/rdusda.pdf. Although it is undeniable that the African-American community was deeply affected by the (ab)use of crack, it is also true that it was widespread among poors, including whites.

    10. My stomach hurts, so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch

      In Tupac's perspective, crime is a consequence of poverty. What do you think about it? Do you think crimes are response to people being unable to afford life?

    11. Two shots in the dark, now Huey's dead

      Although in the previous verse, Huey Newton seems to be a source of inspiration for the singer, hope seems to be nowhere to be found in this verse. As any African-American, even Huey ends up being another victim of police brutality. Considering the bigger picture, it can be hypothesized that 2Pac was even questioning the actual impact and ideals that animated the Black Panther Party itself.

    12. I'd love to go back to when we played as kids

      In this disheartening scenario, 2Pac seeks refuge in the pleasant memories of an idealized childhood, which is perceived as the only moment in space and time where he may find solace.

    13. he's a hero

      In this verse and in the previous one, the singer is making explicit reference to the police brutality in the U.S.A: excessive use of force (also culminating in murder) by police officers towards specific categories has been documented since the early 19th century. The targets have varied through the centuries, but African-Americans are historically the most targeted group because of racial implications. In this case, the singer emphasizes policemen's impunity before the law; on the contrary, they are acclaimed and welcomed as "heros". https://www.britannica.com/topic/police-brutality-in-the-United-States-2064580/Police-brutality-after-World-War-II

    14. Is life worth living

      Disclaimer: sensitive content.

      In a world dominated by racism and in which nothing changes, the singer wonders whether the struggles he has to cope with on a daily basis make living worth it. He even contemplates the possibility to end his life in the same verse. If you have ever felt the same way the singer does in this verse, please seek help at https://azzurro.it/ or at least talk with an adult or a teacher.

    15. I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black

      In the society in which the narrative voice lives, both poverty and blackness have a negative connotation. In other words, being Black adds up to being poor.

    16. The 1980s: Bruce Hornsby and the Range—The Way It Is

      Setting the scene: the song was released in July 1986 as a single from the band's debut album The Way It Is. It was a great success and the band won the 1987 Grammy Awards in the Best New Artist category. The success of the song has had a long-lasting effect in the music industry: it was sampled by other artists and included in songs such as 2Pac's Changes and Polo G's Wishing for a Hero. The singer has "never counted it" but he has read that his song "has now been recorded 17 times by hip-hop artists" (https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/bruce-hornsby-interview-way-it-is-non-secure-connection-1036032/). In order to understand the following lyrics, it is necessary to place the song in its historical context. The 1980s were years in which several issues emerged: * The process of de-industrialization (that is, the process in which American companies moved their seats abroad, outside the country) deeply affected the job market: tens of thousands of workers lost their jobs. In particular, Blacks were the ones who suffered the most since the majority of them were employed in various industrial fields. As a consequence, poverty spread: 30% of black work force was jobless in 1982. * The conservative Reagan presidency (1981-1989) reduced federal (governmental, that is) economic support to people in need by 20%. The cut to financial measures combined with the ongoing industrial crisis was disastrous. Il presidente Ronald Reagan * White supremacy movements and groups (such as the Ku Klux Klan) reignited and engaged in violent acts against African Americans, firebombing of churches and campaigns against affirmative actions programs and integration in schools. "Millions of white Americans had become convinced that “too much” had been given to blacks". * Poverty, hunger and hopelessness paved the way to the abuse of drugs; crack was especially consumed by poor Americans as it was inexpensive and easily available. As a consequence of the combination of low employment, educational poverty and drug popularity, drug dealing became the source of income for young people and violence increased significantly in Black neighborhoods.

      What was the government's response? Aggravated levels of violence and crime were responded with the "War on Drugs", which entailed: 1. the elimination of parole (that is, the conditional release of a prisoner, often on the basis of good behavior in prison); 2. stricter penalties for drug sale and possession; 3. building a larger network of prisons.

      Needless to say, African-Americans were most targeted. Mass incarceration as a system of control (see the "home" of the website for more on the topic) started to bloom.
