 Sara is an associate Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), where she is also co-Director of the Jack W. Peltason Center for the Study of Democracy (CSD). Her research examines democratic inclusion and the shaping of political identity through citizenship and immigrant integration. She is the author of Immigration and Membership Politics in Western Europe (Cambridge University Press). Her research is also published in Journal of Politics, World Politics, and Comparative Political Studies.

What do citizens do in times of democratic crisis? When democracy is under threat, do everyday citizens activate and mobilize, or do they hunker down, demobilize, and express greater support for homogeneity (like speaking English)? Scholars, pundits and policy experts have largely focused on elite behavior and institutional guardrails, but the citizenry is a foundation to any story about democracy under threat. This book is the first to examine civic obligation in unsettled democratic times from the perspective of citizens themselves. It employs a three-country study of the US, UK, and Germany, to examine how democratic citizens define obligation and for whom, comparing native-born and naturalized citizens. Findings highlight the importance of how democratic problems are framed, and puts forward a number of policy prescriptions for overhauling civic education.

American colleges and universities have based their study programs around what is known as the liberal arts.

A liberal arts studies does not require students to intensively study only one subject. Students choose a major like history or psychology for a liberal arts education. But they also take classes in other subjects that may not directly relate to their major.

However, in recent years, many Americans have avoided liberal arts degree programs. Parents have pushed students towards fields directly related to a specific career. This includes fields in business, healthcare, science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

the biggest challenge facing liberal arts graduates is demonstrating to employers what their skills are and the value they represent. And colleges and universities need to do more to teach their students how to do so.

Throughout this journey, her main preoccupation has been the welfare of her fellow human beings and the planet we all share. Going as far back as the “Letters to the World” that she wrote when she was twelve to the novels she created while a student, later as UN interpreter, UNDP and FAO staff member and C consultant in Rome and at NYHQs, and even during challenging missions abroad Tatiana kept writing. Now ‘retired’, she has published some of her work, including

1) Before they Cut the Ivy on an elite women’s college just before the Ivy League opened its doors to women; 2) Mangoes and Blood on an unusual international hostage situation; 3) Choices on an American woman working for the United Nations in Africa; and 4) A Question of Seduction Vol 1 Eros Vol 2 Agape on an international, intercultural, interfaith relationship set against inequalities in position, past traumas and changing world situation

Having witnessed countless warnings about the future going unheeded and having seen what can be done when people come together, Tatiana looks for the opportunities available to us. For her, many of these opportunities are to be found within the United Nations System. Though an imperfect system with an unusual mix of people, a motley crew, one which is not well understood, Tatiana is convinced that it deserves much greater support than it has had in its first seventy-five years.

His philosophy comes from an eclectic mix of mentors, theory, and practices which he summarizes in the following way:

We are going through a big shift: from a mechanistic, hyper-individualism mindset to a regenerative, ecosystem mindset. Business is a tremendous tool to build better futures and can support this shift.

However, mechanistic thinking is often seen in business discounts externalities and can severely limit our potential. There are better ways of doing business. To instigate this shift we explore some key areas:

• Purpose: How do you operate from the Soul of your person / your organization?

• People: How are you developing people so they are better after working with you / your organization?

• Ecosystem: How are you cultivating generative relationships and creating more value than you capture?

• Stewardship: How will you contribute to the health of the system and leave your little piece better than you found it?

The session covers how to plan for reducing your workforce, and how to communicate effectively with your different audiences given the current health crisis.

Suicide is a difficult topic to talk about, most people often avoid talking about. Perhaps if we did talk about our thoughts and feelings or open sharing our internal conflicts, then maybe so many people wouldn’t see suicide as an option for escaping their pain. Simple, real conversations may just make the difference between life and death.

 Abe was born in Mexico, moved to United States, enlisted in the army, got a masters in Social work and worked for 40 years at Kaiser as a social worker. Abe guaranteed he would not give a suicide demonstration. Abe anticipated that people might find the talk to be depressing and so indicated that he found his experiences to be uplifting.

In September last year National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. More people die by suicide than from homicide, and that holds true for teens, too. For youth ages 10 to 24, suicide is the second leading cause of death, with approximately 16 American youth taking their lives each day, according to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

 Abe worked in three different clinics dealing with families and individuals for 22 years. For the last 17 years, he worked in the ER. He was called in when a patient needed a psych eval, and had the authority to hospitalize patients.

Abe used a powerful intervention, an Australian approach, that explains that suicide exerts power from an external position. He’d begin by asking for permission to give his take on suicide. Most patients said yes.

He’d ask, “what is your relationship with suicide?”, referencing suicide as an entity, an external influencer. Sometimes the “relationship” had gone on for years. He explained that suicide is like a negative energy that looks for vulnerable people and tries to convince them that taking themselves out is a good solution. “Your life is never going to get better.” “You’re a failure.” “Your family will be better off without you.” Abe would say to his patients that the goal of suicide is to take you out and to cause devastation to all around you. He affirmed their pain, but explained the persistent pain suicide causes to others.

Typically Abe insisted that the family be present for an intervention, asking them to relate to their child or sibling how they would be affected if the suicide was successful. Families were asked to provide positive feedback. Family members confess to a personal relationship with suicide 50-60 percent of the time. Most say they have ended their relationship with suicide, and could say how they did it, which is useful.

Abe would ask a patient whether they could commit to kick suicide out of their life, and if they hesitated, they would be admitted to the hospital. He often found that after a couple of hours with the patient, they were in a very different place. He shared a note received from a person who had tried to commit suicide, stressing the realization that suicide wasn’t a good solution. Suicide is really a self imposed death penalty, a more shocking term that emphasizes its terrible impact.

It is very important to respond when someone appears to be suicidal, lest you become another who suffers from the impact of suicide. Ask them, “are you thinking about taking your own life?” Report it! Let them know they are valuable to you. Make sure they have no access to a gun. Make sure medications are in a secure place. The more we talk about suicide, the weaker suicide becomes. Let's talk about it!

Contest Chair and CHS Principal Brett O’Connor introduced the annual 4-Way Speech Contest, just one of many youth projects sponsored by our Club in partnership with Rotary District 5300. This year the theme is Rotary Connects the World. Students shared perspectives on the Four-Way Test, based on Herb Taylor’s famous statement on business ethics that we have adopted in Rotary.

Of the things we think, say or do:

Is it the TRUTH?

Is it FAIR to all concerned?

Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIP?

Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

There were three contestants all from Claremont High

School:

Alex Abarca, a senior, will attend Yale University, hopes to become a lawyer specializing in government. Melissa Glover, a senior, plans to attend a university here in California to study psychology, political science and/or American sign language. Maltin Tocani, a junior, whose short term goal is to graduate from high school, long term goal is medical school.

A bit of history on the 4-Way Test: 

From the earliest days of the organization, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives. One of the world’s most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The 4- Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy. This 24 word test for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The 4-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways. 

 He earns his reputation after his 20-year-old son, Tariq, was gun down when he was delivering pizzas in January 1995 by Tony Hicks, a 14-year-old gang member, in a random act of gang violence. Out of unspeakable grief and despair, he was inspired to transform his loss through the miraculous power of forgiveness. Believing that there were “victims at both ends of the gun,” Azim forgave Tony and founded the Tariq Khamisa Foundation to break the

cycle of youth violence by saving lives, teaching peace, and planting seeds of hope in their future. One month after establishing the foundation, he invited Ples Felix, Tony’s grandfather and guardian, to join him. Together since November 1995, both men have reached half a million elementary, middle, and high school students and many more millions through social media, television, radio and print interviews, guiding the youth to choose a peacemaker’s life of non-violence and forgiveness.

Azim has given over 1,000 presentations to over a million students worldwide and has served as TKF's founder and chairperson for over 23 years. 

He is the author of four books and has been featured countless times in local, national and international media. In 2017.  

I was Able to meet Azim Khamisa in one of the Rotary international conference in Las Veges, I found out Azim was born in Kenya, Africa. and grow up in Uganda during Idda Amen and educated in England in mathematics. They were able to flew Uganda to USA in early seventy hoping to get a better education for their children.

He has over 45 years of experience as a successful international investment banker.

Azim provides an external business perspective to the governance and operations

of TKF. He has committed his life to halting the continuing cycle of violence among youth.

The Bari are sedentary agro-pastoralist inhabiting a good portion of land along the River Nile where Juba, the capital of South Sudan is in the center of their land.

The population of Bari is approximately about 1,000,000 and is the country’s 4th largest ethnic group in the South Sudan.

The language they speak is called the Bari Language, a mother tongue, spoken by more than 2,000,000 people spread throughout South Sudan to Northern Sudan, to the Northern of Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Bari community looking to their ancestral language as a means of cultural revival. And although it has been dormant for over a half century, it was well preserved in the christian bible and other fictional and nonfictional books so The Bari community studied and taught the language to their children raising the first native readers in their mother tongue. 

in July 2011. South Sudan came out of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement.
