Abolitionists supported slave narratives for obvious reasons, but how can we know the formerly enslaved were writing the truth? After all, slaveholders believed slaves to be lesser humans whose emotions and intellect were not fully developed; they couldnt love or grieve in the way Whites did. Plantation owners believed slaves were dependent on owners for shelter and food. So, how did language of slave narratives change that perception? And, how do we know what happened to people, really did happen? Check the list summarized from an article by Charles Nichols for The Phylon Quarterly. Compare that list with the excerpt youve assigned to read to decide i

Over the last decade, biodiversity (the variety of all living things on Earth) has continued to decrease due to human behavior and climate change. However, an increase in the number of zoonotic diseases (diseases transmitted from animals to humans) such as AIDS, Ebola, West Nile virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), and now COVID-19 has made us more aware of how animals and humans interact in an ecosystem. What do you think–does biodiversity protect humans against infectious disease? Present your fact-based opinion and discuss.

Scientists have observed that female offspring of elephants that have survived the increased poaching resulting from Mozambiques prolonged civil war are more likely to be tuskless. Previously, this was a rare genetic trait. Reflect on how human behavior influences the evolution of other species by connecting the required module learning objectives to what youve learned from reading the article and listening to the podcast.

It seems like every year or two a new diet trend makes the rounds: Paleo, Mediterranean, Atkins, Zone, raw food, South Beach, macrobiotics, ketogenic, and 5:2 (fasting diet). Dieting can be quite frustrating when one minute the scientific world says to eat lots of meat and low carbs and the next minute we are told to stay away from fatty foods and carbs are not the enemy. It’s enough to drive a person mad. We all know that eating nutritious food is good for us but is the quote Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food true?
