If Brendan Eich’s employment should be protected, shouldn’t everyone’s?

Why Are Conservatives Only Interested in Defending Mozilla’s Brendan Eich?

Jamelle Bouie

[Time 2]
The Internet is currently worked up over the resignation of Mozilla CEO Brendan Eich, who left the company on Thursday following controversy over his support for Proposition 8 in 2008. As my colleague Will Oremus explains, Eich had given $1,000 to the anti-gay marriage campaign, which sparked a minor controversy when it surfaced in 2012, but didn’t affect his standing at the company, where he served as chief technical officer. After he was named CEO, however, this changed, and he was forced out by a combination of internal unrest and public condemnation.

Defenders of the outcome say that it’s a question of public morality; opposition to same-sex marriage is the same as opposition to interracial marriage, and that both are unacceptable opinions for people leading public companies. Critics, on the other hand, see Eich’s forced resignation as a chilling attack on free speech. Writing on his website, Andrew Sullivan calls it a “hounding” and wonders, “Will [Eich] now be forced to walk through the streets in shame?”

National Review takes its outrage even further: “The nation’s full-time gay-rights professionals simply will not rest until a homogeneous and stultifying monoculture is settled upon the land, and if that means deploying a ridiculous lynch mob to pronounce anathema upon a California technology executive for private views acted on in his private life, then so be it.”
[238 words]

[Time 3]
Eich is just the highest profile victim of a status quo that threatens countless workers.

Comparing Eich’s critics to a “lynch mob” is a bit much, especially given the actual violence gay people have faced for exercising their rights. Beyond that, it’s hard not to see some irony in these complaints, given National Review’s support of “religious freedom” laws in states like Arizona and Tennessee, and its broad view that the free market is sufficient to punish anti-gay businesses and business owners. The Mozilla situation seems emblematic of what conservatives want when it comes to the relationship between business, public opinion, and public sanction.

But let’s grant that Sullivan and the National Review are right. That Eich’s forced resignation is an attack on speech, and that this is an ugly bout of bullying against someone who hasn’t expressed his views in the context of his job. If that’s true, then Eich is just the highest profile victim of a status quo that threatens countless workers.

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act might protect workers from discrimination on the basis of their race, color, religion, sex, age, or national origin, but almost everything else is fair game for private employers who want to get rid of workers. Not only can you be fired for your political views—for sporting the wrong bumper sticker on your car, for instance—or for being “sexually irresistible” to your boss, but in most states (29, to be precise), you can be fired for your sexual orientation or gender identification, no questions asked.
[280 words]

[Time 4]
Overall, the large majority of Americans have at-will employment, which means that—outside of protected classes such as race or religion—they can be fired for any reason at all. For someone like Eich, this isn’t a huge deal: He will survive his brush with joblessness. The same can’t be said for millions of low-income workers who face termination lest they give their bosses their complete obedience.

For a taste of what this looks like, and if you’ve never worked a retail job, you should read former Politico reporter Joseph Williams on his time in a sporting goods store. For a pittance of a paycheck, he consented to constant searches, unpaid labor, and borderline wage theft. It’s a precarious existence, made worse by the fact that saying the wrong thing at the wrong time—either on the job or off it—could result in you losing your job, with no recourse.

And of course, employment discrimination against LGBT Americans is a real and ongoing problem. According to a 2011 report from the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank, at least 15 percent of gay Americans have faced discrimination and harassment at the workplace on the basis of their orientation, and at least 8 percent report being passed over for a job or fired. A whopping 90 percent of transgender individuals report some sort of harassment on the job. It’s doesn’t minimize Eich’s situation (if you’re opposed to his resignation) to note that gay people are far more likely to face discrimination than opponents of same-sex marriage.

Could Brad Pitt be the key to encouraging men to stand up against rape?

A Movie About Steubenville From a Male Perspective Is a Great Idea

Amanda Marcotte

[Time 5]
Plan B, Brad Pitt's production company that recently financed 12 Years a Slave, grabbed headlines this week with the news that it had purchased the film rights to the Rolling Stone article, "Anonymous Vs. Steubenville." Written by David Kushner, the piece chronicles the efforts of online activists, flying under the name Anonymous, to get justice for a high school rape victim in Steubenville, Ohio. The protagonists of the article are a bunch of young white men who were touched by this girl's suffering and angered by what they deemed a town cover-up of the crime, and set out to make things right.

You can see the appeal of this story from a Hollywood perspective: Young men go up against a football town to rescue a female rape victim. But Tara Culp-Ressler at ThinkProgress is not happy about the male-centric nature of the story and thinks it is typical of Hollywood's inability to do social justice stories any justice:

In a culture where rape survivors’ voices are often ignored, and women’s stories about their own lived experiences of sexual violence and oppression are constantly brought into question, it’s discouraging to envision a movie about one of the most famous rape cases in the country that places a “white knight” at the center. Although it’s likely not the intention of Plan B Entertainment, that framing choice ends up further obscuring the real women who are victimized by sexual assault.

[246 words]

[Time 6]
Usually, I would agree. Hollywood has a tendency to tell the stories of oppressed people not from their own points of view, but from the point of view of a privileged outsider who comes to the rescue. (The Help and Schindler's List come to mind.) That's why 12 Years a Slave was so essential—because it made an enslaved man the protagonist of a story about slavery, something that should seem like the obvious thing to do but is often not. And the Steubenville movie may end up being more of the same. But I'd like to withhold judgment until it comes out for this major reason: Rape is one of those issues where we desperately need white knights.

Rape is traditionally considered a "women's issue," but really it's more of a men's issue. Men commit nearly all rapes, even rapes of other men and boys. The phrase "rape culture" that feminists kick around describes, above all else, the way that sexual predators move about freely because other men don't stand up to them (or, in some cases, actively support them, as we see in the newest reports about the latest charges against Jameis Winston's teammates). Women can oppose rape until we're blue in the face, but as long as rapists can look at other men and see indifference or active support, they're going to remain emboldened.

Look, women can rescue themselves through political activism on nearly all feminist issues. Women got themselves the vote. But when it comes to sexual assault, we need more men to say, at the very least, "Dude, that is messed up." If this movie ends up showing young men a new model for masculinity, one where you stand up for a woman's right to safety instead of wallow in a "bros before hos" mentality, then I will consider it a win.

What the New Cesar Chavez Film Gets Wrong About the Labor Activist

——Despite the good intentions, the biopic misleads and distorts his role in the farm workers movement

Matt Garcia | April 2, 2014

Matt Garcia is the director of the School of Historical, Philosophical, and Religious Studies at Arizona State University. His most recent book, From the Jaws of Victory: The Triumph and Tragedy of Cesar Chavez and the Farm Worker Movement (University of California Press), won the Philip Taft Award for the Best Book in Labor History, 2013. He wrote this for Zocalo Public Square.

[Paraphrase 7]
Most great men have one. Malcolm X has one. Gandhi has one. Mandela got one last year. And now, Cesar Chavez has his.

The biographical film or “biopic”—like Cesar Chavez, which came out this past weekend—lends itself to the creation of legends. In the case of Chavez, the legend is complicated by the fact that his story did not exactly lead to the liberation of the people he represented. Great strides were made during the heyday of the farm workers movement—namely the first contracts for farm workers and a California law that recognized their right to unionize. But field workers today suffer indignities familiar to those who worked in rural California prior to Chavez starting a union in 1962.

These facts are not the concern of Diego Luna, the Mexican niño prodigio turned director of the new film. In a recent appearance at UCLA, Luna told his audience, "We have to send a message to the [film] industry that our stories have to be represented. And with the depth and the complexity they deserve."

Fair enough. As a Mexican American and a historian, I too long for dignified cinematic portrayals of Latinos—if for no other reason than to impart histories to my students that convey the struggles for equality our people have initiated. College professors can only show John Sayles’ terrific 1996 film Lone Star, about a Texas border town, so many times. 2011’s A Better Life, about an undocumented gardener in Los Angeles, is a welcome but all too rare addition to the genre.

[attach]141491[/attach]

My yearnings, however, should not come at the expense of historical accuracy, as they do in Cesar Chavez. Having recently published a book on the United Farm Workers and Chavez, I could easily get very particular about the details. (Pointing out, for example, that Luna situates the 1973 picket-line murder of farm worker Juan de la Cruz prior to 1970.)

But in the new film, Luna’s omissions and alterations are really historical subversions and go well beyond the poetic license we should permit filmmakers. His interpretation, I suspect, is a product of his unsophisticated handling of U.S. identity politics. He rejects the multiethnic community that made up the farm workers movement in favor of a simplistic notion that Mexicans did all the work. Creating a hero comes at the expense of depicting an entire social movement.

The Filipino American National Historical Society has rightly come out against the film’s misrepresentation of labor leader Larry Itliong, and the erasure of others such as Philip Vera Cruz and Pete Velasco. They’ve also questioned Luna’s failure to acknowledge the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee--an organization made up largely of Filipinos--which initiated the 1965 grape strike. The strike functions as a turning point for the union’s formation in the film.

Similarly, any mention of white volunteers and organizers beyond Fred Ross, Cesar’s mentor, and Jerry Cohen, the talented leader of the UFW legal team, is absent. Several white ministers and students played a critical role in launching and sustaining the movement, including Reverend Jim Drake, who came up with the winning strategy of the boycott, not Chavez. As the film lumbers toward the epic signing of the first contracts in 1970, Luna’s most egregious distortion of history comes when he shows Chavez boarding a ship to London. In the film, the labor leader walks the wharf on the Thames River, lobbies dockworkers not to unload grapes, and appeals to consumers not to buy the fruit. Although this work actually happened, it was a young Jewish American volunteer, Elaine Elinson, who almost singlehandedly convinced the British and Scandinavian unions to keep the grapes out of Europe.

The film even fails to represent accurately the supporting cast of Mexican American activists in Cesar’s orbit. Gilbert Padilla, played by Yancey Arias, and Dolores Huerta, played by Rosario Dawson, come off as nothing more than a yes-man and yes-woman to Chavez when, in fact, they were distinguished organizers in their own right and effective innovators of new strategies, including the boycott. Only Helen Chavez, Cesar’s wife, is presented as a character with her own mind and story, a tribute to America Ferrera’s standout performance.

[attach]141492[/attach]

But the film probably does the greatest disservice to Cesar Chavez himself. The director opts out of the 1970s altogether, a period in which Chavez struggled with personal and professional demons, lost interest in organizing farm workers, and became invested in creating a community rather than solidifying gains made in the previous decade. Such a storyline would have done little to burnish his credentials as a civil and labor rights leader, but it would have made for a more dramatic and compelling film. More importantly, it would have made for a much more accurate portrait of the depth and complexity of the real man.These omissions reflect the limitations of the genre and the hero-making project of this film in particular. With rare exception, biopics elide complexity and avoid overt criticism of their subjects. This is why the most extraordinary and entertaining renditions of historical figures have often come via fictionalized characters, whether it be Orson Welles’ Charles Foster Kane based on William Randolph Hearst (Citizen Kane), Roman Polanski’s Noah Cross based on William Mulholland (Chinatown), or P. T. Anderson’s Daniel Plainview based on Edward Doheny (There Will Be Blood).

In fairness to Luna, Chavez was delivered to him with decades of historical baggage, thanks to hagiography and political stamps of approval from Robert Kennedy, Jerry Brown, and most recently, Barack Obama. Although new histories are now being written, including Miriam Pawel’s impressive biography, The Crusades of Cesar Chavez, it will take time for the public’s perception of the hero to catch up with the all-too-human Chavez. Sadly, Luna’s film does almost nothing to assist this move toward a new understanding of Cesar Chavez’s life and the successes and failures of the movement he led.

It's kind of risky for users to share information on social media since other people can also get access to data thus they can predict the media users' traits, attributes and a patten of behavior.

Eich is agianst gay rights.He left the company because of condemnation from public.
Several opinions towards his attitude:
defenders--public morality.unacceptable attitudes as a person leading public company.
critics--attack on free speech.he has the right to speak out his idea.

time:
Eich is just a victim of a status quo--this threatens many workers.
There are many reasons for a worker to be fired.But when related to gender orientation,you may be fired without any reason and explanation.
___________________
time:
For some people,like Eich,losing job doesn't mean a huge thing,they can find a new one easier and quicker.
But for most people,they give their boss complete obedience to aviod being fired.But they still can be fired because of a small thing and a small reason.
Discrimination towards LGBT is existing.
__________________
time:
The story--men appear in the centre of the case related to rape to women.
Critics--only Hollywood's normal pattern--not bring real justice towards real cases--not focuse on those women victim,but emphasize men roles.
_______________
time:
Hollywood's pattern--tell a story about oppressed people,not from their own views,but from the views of those people who rescue them.
But the author think the movie may success.Because when we face rape or something like this,women really need "white knight" or men to stand out and rescue them.
We should emphasize male role in such themes(sexual assaults).Men should stand out because women can not face this problem by their own.
If the movie did this,then the author considers it a success.

Recently, brad pitt invests a movie about rape from a male perspective. However, a person is not happy about the plot and thinks that hollywood's inability to do such social activity: it's a good view of the film and also a breakthrough of bringing such topic to the screen.
6. 1:48
The author object to the argument that is offered to critic the film. We need to describe rape from the victim's direction rather than white knight's. Also, rage is not only women issue, but also about man, which is more important. Women now have their right to wote for themselves. Now they need is the support from men, a plot that have been introduced in the film.

obstacles:
the biographical film like cesar chavez always go far more than what the truth is. While many people are arguing for the involve of equlity and other item, the film are rarely refer to such item. For example, a 2011 film farm workers describes a great plot of an undocumented gardener without identifying the genre.
What's more, the film distort what the orignal is. Although there is a explanation that the film need to coordinate with the all degree in the society and doing such things is understandable, the director always change some important information about the truth and the practice raises the discontent of the relevant people.
The change is doing the most influence to Cesar Chavez.

As internet has evolved during the past decades, especially social networking sites, people shares massive amount of personal information on the net. But they don't realized that these information can be analysed by others and used to predict their behaviors, even things seems to be irrelevant. As the analysis result may not always benefit people, the speaker believe this is a problem to solve. She suggests two ways. The first is to legislate laws and the second is to changes internet rules. In other words, she believes that users have the right to know how their data would be used and the right to decide how much information they want to keep privacy.

The author states what the new cesar chavez film gets wrong about the labor activist. simple he creates the hero imagines of the Mexicans who attended the boycott and omits the white and american people who also contributes to this activity and it even fails to represent accurately the supporting cast of Mexican American activists in Cesar’s orbit. These omissions reflect the limitations of the genre and the hero-making project of this film in particular. and this omission is also why so many entertaining renditions are often fiction. good thing is new histories are now being written although it will take some time to swift the concept already rooted in public's mind.

Although the film won the Philip Taft Award, it still has many wrong about the labor activist.
FIRST, The biographical film about Cesar Chavez during the heyday of the farm workers movement actually does;t describe the field workers' today suffering of indignities.

THIRD, the film even fails to represent accurately the supporting cast of Mexican American activists in Cesar’s orbit.
In fairness to Luna, Chavez was delivered to him with decades of historical baggage, but, sadly, Luna’s film does almost nothing to assist this move toward a new understanding of Cesar Chavez’s life and the successes and failures of the movement he led.
