Postcolonialism: concepts, contexts, and cultural analysis
The necklace is a throwback to that past, in that it present one with an image of a humanized person.
In that way, it manifests numerous messages just as post-colonialism itself is an ideology that is replete with numerous meanings.
The post-colonial reaction is the act of replying to the colonial legacy by writing back to the center, to a previous time when the colonized people had their own history and traditions, and using the colonizer's language and symbols (e.g. English and, in this case, Christianity) for that purposes. The necklace featured in this essay is a good example of such an instance.
Diversity in organizations: challenges and strategies
Studies conducted and/or reviewed by Bendick, Egan, and Lanier reveal that so-called "diversity" can be detrimental to the employee, company and customer if diversity is followed in a shortsighted manner. Rather than accept enslavement to "diversity," the authors explore inclusion, "in which all employees are treated fairly and with civility, have equal access to resources and opportunities, and are able to contribute fully to their employers' objectives and thus their own success" through assessment and utilization of the employee's full range of job-specific skills, teaching and enhancement of "cultural competence," training, guided hiring, guided assignments, guided promotions, guided compensation systems and monitored systems holding managers accountable for "inclusion practices and diversity outcomes." As is illustrated by Tesco's case, a company's inclusion/diversity plan can be admirable yet poor unless the plan is carefully plotted and applied.
