Mark Monmonier's "From Squaw Tit To Whorehouse Meadow" - Changes To America's Cultural Landscape
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Early Americans have a legacy of being indelicate about using descriptive language when discussing the attributes of other cultures. More accurately, history shows quite a vulgar streak of adjectives that, regrettably, have held fast in the American lexicon. So why should it be so surprising to learn those saddled with the chore of mapping the entire United States would resort to the same lascivious bawdy, tasteless tactics for naming everything from cities to mountain ranges to gulches? While labeling places with toponyms derived from body parts and racial slurs may not have been considered scatological during the map-making process, Monmonier notes how the transformation that ultimately followed this time - when cultural awareness and sensitivity began to take hold - set in motion a tremendous undercurrent of furor to abolish such disparaging monikers.

Marriage And Divorce By Race
[ send me this paper ]
Marriage, as an institution, has seen a great many changes throughout history. It has grown in popularity at times and waned in others. The reasons for these changes are not always clear - nor are the differences in marriage and divorce rates when considered by racial classifications. One would assume that social conditions, such as during a time of war, or economic considerations would loom large in determining the rise and fall of marriage and, or, divorce rates. This 5 page paper argues that Marriage, overall, has declined in the past few decades, many believe as a result of the popular option of cohabitation and single parent households. Divorce rates have risen over this same time frame among Americans of all races and ethnic groups. African American couples have been affected by these trends to a larger degree than other ethnic groups. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Marriage as a Social Problem
