This module takes its name from The Other America by Michael Harrington, a study of 1950s U. S. poverty. From the 1700s, many American white people of European heritage have lacked the land, education, skills, or opportunities for advancement.   White identity movements have  drawn on regionalism, clannishness, racism, xenophobia, fear, and class resentments.  With economic distress, movements have coalesced around feelings that the country is not working for them. Poor and working class whites gave impetus to Populism and insurgent “white identity” movements supporting Huey Long, George Wallace, and recently Donald Trump.Another important element is “race” -- a word and concept developed to justify the colonization and control (and  enslavement) of black Africans by white Europeans and Americans. They used fake “race” science to justify colonization, the slave trade and subordination of Blacks.A complete, objective history requires an understanding of Americans who join in such identity politics.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Oropharyngeal dysphagia is characterized by difficulty swallowing and occurs in about 45% of stroke patients. Thickening agents are one effective way to help patients with dysphagia consume liquids and foods. However, few viscosity levels per study have been assessed, and the optimal levels for patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia have not yet been established. To address that gap, the Physiology Digestive team from the Hospital of Mataró recently tested Nutilis Clear®, a xanthan gum-based thickener, at 7 shear viscosity levels. They looked at the effects of viscosity on the safety, efficacy, and physiology of swallowing in patients with post-stroke oropharyngeal dysphagia. The researchers first provided patients a thin liquid, followed by thickened boluses, from the highest to the lowest. Each bolus was provided in duplicate..."
