Item Access And Usage Of Paid Sick Leave In African American Caregiving(2020-05) Goldberg, RenadaThis two-study dissertation offers a critical analysis of family resilience amid the demands of formal wage employment and the usage of paid sick leave access on family functioning and cohesion for African American employed caregivers. The research significance arises from its trifold emphasis on 1) how paid sick leave access and usage affect family-level outcomes, 2) how the asynchrony of paid sick leave access and usage influences African American employed caregivers’ perceptions of family functioning and cohesion, and 3) how families negotiate work expectations and family priorities. Using qualitative focus group data and survey data from African American caregivers, both studies found paid sick leave usage influenced family-level outcomes and more importantly family outcomes were related to how workers’ supervisors understood their need to take sick leave. Workers who felt that supervisors were aware of the importance of their health needs and those of their dependents and supported their decision to take care of those needs, reported better family-related outcomes.Item African American history and radical historiography: essays in honor of Herbert Aptheker(MEP Publications, 1998) Shapiro, HerbertFifty-five years ago a young historian published American Negro Slave Revolts, a book that initially met fierce resistance from established historians but came to change the way African American history is understood and to have a wide impact on the writing of history in general. Herbert Aptheker went on to edit the massive 7-volume Documentary History of the Negro People in the United States. A close friend and colleague of W. E. B. Du Bois, Aptheker for years served as custodian of the Du Bois papers, arranged for their deposit at the University of Massachusetts, and meticulously edited for publication a multivolume set of the Du Bois writings and a three-volume collection of his correspondence. --Publisher's summary.Item American Indians and the Criminal Justice System in Minnesota.(Center for Urban and Regional Affairs, University of Minnesota, 1979) Benjamin, Roger; Nam Kim, ChoongItem Are Good Jobs Disappearing?
