Ken Saro-Wiwa's art and the aesthetics of non-silenceGeorge, Austin Tamuno-Opubo 03 March 2008 (has links)
Abstract:
This work examines the writings and other discursive practices of Ken Saro-
Wiwa, the Nigerian dissident writer and minority rights activist, who was hanged
by the military authorities in Nigeria in November 1995. Until his death, Saro-
Wiwa had been a tireless campaigner against transnational oil corporations for
devastating the local ecology while prospecting for oil, and against the Nigerian
state for repressing oil-bearing minority communities through its nationalist
bureaucratic practices. After his death, the ideas of this writer contained in over
twenty literary texts and detention diaries continue to frame and inflame
agitational discourses in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria and beyond.
The aim of this work is to identify, interpret and critique the vast miscellany of
oppositional modalities employed by Ken Saro-Wiwa and his Ogoni community in
their tussles with nationalist modernity in Nigeria. Using interpretive protocols
derived mainly from minority discourse theory, I attempt to examine and assess
the place and significance of Ken Saro-Wiwa within the corpus of dissident
culturalist discourse in Africa and beyond.

Coalition or Competition?: The Effects of Category Salience on Inter-Minority PrejudiceGupta, Manisha 01 January 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Traditionally, the discourse on race relations in the U.S. has focused on relations between Whites and ethnic minorities, with little being known about the antecedents and consequences of inter-minority prejudice. This paper will present results from two studies that were conducted with Asian, Black, and Latino undergraduate students, assessing motivations to embrace a collective identity with ethnic minorities (versus express prejudice towards other ethnic minority groups). Blacks,’ Asians’, and Latinos’ ethnic group identification, as well their identification with a superordinate "people of color" (POC) category were assessed. POC identification was found to be closely aligned with one's political beliefs (e.g., perceptions that the system is unjust, and that racial minorities face discrimination in the U.S.) For Asian participants, POC identification predicted more positive attitudes towards other ethnic minority groups perceived to face similar discrimination in the U.S. (e.g., Latinos and Blacks.) However, Blacks' identification as POC actually predicted negative attitudes towards Asians, who were not seen as facing the same barriers to upward mobility as other racial minority groups in the U.S. The results indicate that the politics of POC identification might actually contribute to increased tension between ethnic minorities in the U.S.; implications for more effecting coalition building between racial minorities in the U.S. are also discussed in this paper.

Concealment as a Moderator of Anticipated Stigma and Psychiatric SymptomsBrooks, Byron D., Job, Sarah A., Clark, Emily A., Todd, Emerson A., Williams, Stacey L. 02 July 2020 (has links)
Sexual minorities are at risk for poorer mental health outcomes due to unique minority stressors. Anticipated stigma and concealment are documented as predictors of worse outcomes among this population; however, limited research has examined how interactions between minority stressors contribute to health outcomes. This study of sexual minorities (n = 147) recruited through social media examined the moderating role of concealment on the relationship between anticipated stigma and psychiatric symptoms (e.g., anxiety, depressive symptoms). Moderation analyses revealed concealment significantly moderated the relationship between anticipated stigma and anxiety symptoms, but not depressive symptoms. Clinically addressing minority stress may reduce psychiatric symptoms.

Translating Online Positive Psychology Interventions to Sexual and Gender Minorities: A Systematic ReviewJob, Sarah A., Williams, Stacey L. 01 January 2020 (has links)
Sexual and gender minorities (SGM) often face worse health outcomes in comparison with their heterosexual and cisgender counterparts. Positive psychology interventions (PPIs) have the potential to improve these outcomes. In this article we review 130 articles containing online positive psychology interventions and evaluate them based on effect size, length of follow-up, and sample characteristics. Based on these findings applied to the psychological mediation framework (Hatzenbuehler, 2009), we recommend the following interventions be tested in SGM samples: self-compassion, optimism, love, forgiveness, humor, and spirituality. Future research that tailors existing positive psychology interventions to the lived experiences of SGM individuals could ameliorate health disparities.

A Pilot and Feasibility Trial of a Sexual Minority-Specific Positive Psychology InterventionJob, Sarah A., Williams, Stacey L. 26 October 2020 (has links)
Sexual minorities face unique stressors that contribute to worse mental health (Meyer, 2003). Positive psychology interventions may be able to ameliorate this. The current study pilot tested an identityspecific positive psychology intervention among 20 sexual minorities. Results suggest that the intervention reduced depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and anticipated discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. This implies that positive psychology interventions may be able to address health disparities among sexual minorities.

HIV-Stigma, Self-Compassion, and Psychological Well-Being Among Sexual Minority Men Living With HIVWilliams, Stacey L., Skinta, M. D., Fekete, M. D. 01 January 2019 (has links)
Gay men living with HIV (MLWH) are often adversely affected by stigma related to both their serostatus and their sexual orientation, and the experience of living with HIV appears to increase feelings of internalized homophobia (IH). Little research attention has focused, however, on factors that may buffer the impact of HIV-stigma and IH on well-being among men living with HIV. Self-compassion, which consists of self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness, has been associated with resilience against the negative effects of stigma on well-being. We hypothesized that HIV-stigma would be indirectly related to poorer psychological well-being through increased levels of IH. Moreover, we expected that self-compassion would attenuate the negative effects of HIV-stigma on well-being through IH. Our sample consisted of 90 ethnically diverse gay MLWH. Participants completed an online questionnaire that assessed levels of HIV-stigma, IH, self-compassion, depression, anxiety, and positive and negative affect. After controlling for a variety of sociodemographic, health, and social characteristics, results revealed that more HIV-stigma was indirectly related to more depressive symptoms and anxiety through higher IH. Moreover, self-compassion emerged as a moderator of the indirect association of HIV-stigma on higher negative affect through higher IH, such that this indirect effect was significant for those with low self-compassion, but not for those with high self-compassion. Compassion-focused practices should be explored as a means of increasing resilience among gay MLWH.
