The Virtual Workplace : Public Health, Efficiency, and Opportunity
The recent pandemic has clarified the overwhelming connection between the workplace and technology.With thousands of employees suddenly forced to work at home, a large segment of the workforce quickly received crash courses in videoconferencing and other technologies, and society as a whole took a step back to redefine what employment actually means.The virtual workplace is the blending of brick-and-mortar physical places of business with the advanced technologies that now make it possible for workers to perform their duties outside of the office.Trying to regulate in this area requires the application of decades old employment laws to a context never even contemplated by the legislatures that wrote those rules.This book explores the emerging issues of virtual work—defining employment, litigating claims, aggregating cases, unionizing workers, and preventing harassment—and provides clarity to these areas, synthesizing the current case law, statutory rules, and academic literature to provide guidance to workers and companies operating in the technology sector.

What is the difference between equal opportunity and equity of opportunity?
Equal opportunity refers to the idea that everyone should have the same chances and access to resources, regardless of their background or circumstances. On the other hand, equity of opportunity recognizes that not everyone starts from the same place and therefore may require different levels of support or resources to achieve the same opportunities. Equity of opportunity aims to level the playing field by addressing the systemic barriers and providing additional support to those who have been historically disadvantaged. In essence, while equal opportunity focuses on treating everyone the same, equity of opportunity focuses on ensuring that everyone has the same chance to succeed.

African American Artists and the New Deal Art Programs : Opportunity, Access, and Community
This book examines the involvement of African American artists in the New Deal art programs of the 1930s.Emphasizing broader issues informed by the uniqueness of Black experience rather than individual artists’ works, Mary Ann Calo makes the case that the revolutionary vision of these federal art projects is best understood in the context of access to opportunity, mediated by the reality of racial segregation. Focusing primarily on the Federal Art Project (FAP) of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), Calo documents African American artists’ participation in community art centers in Harlem, in St.Louis, and throughout the South. She examines the internal workings of the Harlem Artists’ Guild, the Guild’s activities during the 1930s, and its alliances with other groups, such as the Artists’ Union and the National Negro Congress.Calo also explores African American artists’ representation in the exhibitions sponsored by WPA administrators and the critical reception of their work.In doing so, she elucidates the evolving meanings of the terms race, culture, and community in the interwar era.The book concludes with an essay by Jacqueline Francis on Black artists in the early 1940s, after the end of the FAP program. Presenting essential new archival information and important insights into the experiences of Black New Deal artists, this study expands the factual record and positions the cumulative evidence within the landscape of critical race studies.It will be welcomed by art historians and American studies scholars specializing in early twentieth-century race relations.

Raffles : And the Golden Opportunity
By the time of his death, Thomas Stamford Raffles (1781-1826) was the founder of Singapore and Governor of Java, having left school in his early teens to become a clerk for the British East India Company.Charismatic and daring, Raffles forged an extraordinary path for himself in South East Asia - refusing to be satisfied with the trading posts available to the British, he defied Dutch governors and wrangled with warring local rulers to establish what is now a world city.An ardent linguist and zoologist, Raffles spoke fluent Malay and found time to write The History of Java, as well as naming several species of flora and fauna he discovered on his travels.He founded London Zoo and promoted the study of Malay alongside European languages in Southeast Asia. Raffles remains a controversial figure - a utopian imperialist, disobedient employee and knight of the realm who died deeply in debt, predeceased by all but one of his children.He built racial segregation into his urban planning, but was also a staunch abolitionist.Renowned biographer Victoria Glendinning charts Raffles' prodigious rise in this new edition, specially updated for the bicentenary of the foundation of Singapore in 1819.His life was short, complicated and shot through with tragedy, but Raffles' fame lives on.
