The article already sets a a narrow perspective of the Atlanta citizens’ perspective on the growing street art. Looking at my other piece on the street art of Atlanta, you can see another perspective on the graffiti ‘problem’ in Atlanta. However, the article also talks about the other side of graffiti and how they intend not to stifle the creative process as well as differentiate street art from vandalism. The article also speaks about how the local artists of Atlanta think that more commissioned murals would help curb the vandalism problem plaguing Atlanta’s walls. The article talks about how the Atlanta Police Department and how they set up a new task force to crack down on the removal and prosecution of street artists. While talking to the authorities implementing the task force, the article also includes the viewpoint that the street artists have on this new task force and what the repercussions could be in instilling a punishment to the ‘artists

“Feds Outline Concerns over Atlanta Streetcar in Stern Letter.” AJC.com: Atlanta News, Sports, Atlanta Weather, Business News. 29 Sept. 2015. Web. 25 Apr. 2016. <http://www.ajc.com/news/news/local-govt-politics/feds-outline-concerns-over-atlanta-streetcar-in-st/nnq4g/>.

In the article, the Feds have expressed a warning to both the mayor and MARTA chief over the safety and management concerns over the function of the Atlanta Streetcar. In the letter, the Feds worry over the lack of preparation, lack of proper maintenance, underdeveloped operating systems, and safety report issues. All these issues seem to be met with passivity from Atlanta and Marta by saying that they are looking into the issue at hand and are doing their best to proceed with safety in mind. And while the Atlanta Streetcar is a great innovation amidst the growing issues with bus systems in downtown, it seems that the issues that are hidden to the general public are things that should be met with more seriousness and proactivity. With the great potential of having an effective mode of transportation in the metropolitan area of Atlanta, Atlanta and MARTA should do their best to help reach that full potential by working in tandem with the Feds and the general public.

Hower, Mike. “Dissecting Atlanta’s Southern Sustainability Stand.” GreenBiz.  7 Apr. 2015. Web. 25 Apr. 2016. <https://www.greenbiz.com/article/atlantas-southern-sustainability-charge>.

This article a focuses on Atlanta’s sustainability change and how the city prepares to make pragmatic steps in being a cleaner city for the community. The article also goes in depth into all the programs that Atlanta has implemented in order to make sustainability an attainable goal. With a more specific view on the P2C initiative in Atlanta, the article also highlights all the things that the city has helped innovate in the city with its increase in city wide recycling as well as implementing buildings to lessen their energy usage. But while highlighting the great strides that the city has already made with creating opportunities for cleaner living, the article also shows how a majority of the work is on the general public and how they might react to the new rules and opportunities. The article also doesn’t shy away from the progress already made however, the article mentions how the city of Atlanta is still behind in its strive for sustainability.

Ceplenski, Chris. “Reasonable Accommodations for Obesity as a Disability – HR Daily Advisor.” HR Daily Advisor. 03 Mar. 2014. Web. 25 Apr. 2016. <http://hrdailyadvisor.blr.com/2014/03/03/reasonable-accommodations-for-obesity-as-a-disability/>.

The article is an educated and analytical view on how employers should accommodate their more obese workers. The article brings up the premise that obesity is a medical hinderance that can cause limitations in a person’s life. And with the passage of the ADA (American Disabilities Act) employers are required to make interactive accommodations to those who fall under this category. A question brought up while reading this article is how to differentiate those who do fall under this category of obese and needing accommodation and those who are able to function in society without accommodations. The article also highlights the ways accommodation can bleed into other realms than just working with more options in hours but in the way the office or workspace is designed to make sure those who are obese can still function, rest, and work efficiently in the space. This accommodation of the workspace is as vital as my previous post on accommodation for transgender people since both people are being denied the same access and opportunities they would have if they were not transgender or obese.

Public Spaces: Atlanta’s Struggle with Accommodation and Integration

April 20, 2016 / / 0 Comments

When walking through the streets and other public spaces in Atlanta, you wouldn’t think twice about the acceptance and accommodation you have as a member of the ‘general’ public where all the public spaces are designed with you in mind. But what happens to the groups of people who look through the same spaces and see a clear lack of representation and compassion to have the same opportunities? Do they have to view this act as a deliberate move to push them out of the same society or see it as the society blatantly turning a blind eye to their different needs? When addressing Atlanta’s public space, we also have to understand the society’s need to integrate and assimilate the tangential groups into the general masses. The issues brought up within these groups are not about their change of identity but the acceptance of their different identity into the norm of the culture. This normative change would ultimately result in the accommodation into the public space. Regardless of the intention, we as the public have to delve into Atlanta’s public spaces and see why there is this lack of accommodation as well as think pragmatically to come to a clear revision of the public spaces in Atlanta so that all groups in our society can feel welcome and included in their opportunity to access the same space as other members of the society. 

Targeted For Being Different

We see the people who are targeted against in accessing Atlanta’s public spaces are the one’s who are vastly different from the general population. For example, we see Atlanta not accommodating to the Disabled, Transgender, or Homeless by creating a built environment that goes against their own opportunity to enjoy the public space and include them into the society. Schindler talks about this type of exclusion in her article by highlighting the same issues we see in our own city of Atlanta. The issues she brought up in her article were all pointing to the fact that the built environment can be used to deter people away from certain places in the city and applying those same principles we see the ‘unwanted’ in the cities are those who deter Atlanta’s image of reformation into a ‘clean’ and upstanding community in hopes of becoming an ‘ideal’ community after being labeled dirty and dangerous . We also see the public’s strong opinions against the homeless community in Nersassova’s article. Nersassova reveals to us that the general public has a divisive relationship with the homeless population and therefore causes a majority society to cast them out as outliers to the successful society. This ridge formed between the two groups also relates to the importance in accommodating them into the usage of public space. Even in Atlanta, I saw that a local coffee shop, The Dancing Goats, was only adding to the gentrification of the neighborhood. And looking at the second digital record of the coffee shop you can see that it was not built for lower class or homeless people but for richer middle class and well off college students. Even with the visible construction in the background, we can further see how these neighborhoods are not only ignoring the needs of the people who use the public space but specifically leaving them out in the accommodation of the new usages of the public space. The surrounding gentrification only further impedes on the lesser privileged and continues to drive them out of Atlanta.

Outside Area

Knowingly Ignoring the Needs of the Outliers 

Atlanta goes against Accommodation either by willfully going out of their way to make these groups of people from going into a designated public space or by ignoring their needs and not providing an equal opportunity to enjoy the public space. Again referring to Schindler’s piece, we can see how Atlanta might set up the city in a clear and deliberate effort to keep groups from infiltrating the ‘better’ parts of town. The simple inclusion of a staircase instead of a ramp excludes the disabled in a clear way. And though the building of a stair case might be unintentional, the effect of not accommodating to the disabled are still prominent to not ignore. And in the aftermath of including a stair case, the disabled may show their discomfort and the city’s ignorance to their needs is shown to be as frivolous instead of a necessary inclusion. And looking at my fourth digital record on Inman Park, you can see another example of gentrification happening with the background filled with new sleek apartments while the foreground is still present with graffiti and street art. With more and more neighborhoods becoming more accommodating for middle to upper class members of society, how will the ‘others’ be able to live in the public space when there is no opportunity to be there in the first place. Looking at Bazelon’s article on transgender bathrooms and how the clear cut bathrooms in a growing society with gender fluidity is a statement in itself rather than having gender neutral bathrooms. With all these instances, whether or not Atlanta may do them intentionally we still see the need to accommodate and we still are being met with ignorance and deterrence. Looking at my fourth digital record on the Dancing Goats, you can see that the bathrooms are very specifically labeled as either male or female and with gender being more fluid than ever, we can only see dismissive action when it comes to accommodation for transgender people. Their needs are not mute but are being silenced as unnecessary and Atlanta being a great beacon of social change, you can still see that great cities like Atlanta still have long ways to go in being fully inclusive.

Masking the True Intent

Lastly, we see Atlanta going against the true nature of altering the public space and blaming it on more aesthetic means. They don’t seem to want the general public to know about the ways they are going against the ‘other’ members of their society. When looking at how Schindler talked about the masking of the deliberate city planning, we see similarities in how Atlanta makes specific decisions in the city planning that might not be proven to have malicious intent and instead they describe it as routine and non-discriminatory. Rosenberger’s article also showed how little additions to the built environment like spikes, rail ornaments, and partitions on benches are designed to specifically target a group like the homeless or skateboarders. These little additions would normally be looked over had it not been for the public to garner enough attention to the true nature of the adornments on the built space. Even looking at gender neutral bathrooms, we see that society chooses to forget the needs of transgender people and their voices. And with the city going through many changes over the years, the implementation of segregated and gendered bathrooms is still a statement in itself and since silence speaks louder than words the built environment is only reflecting exclusion. And even though the built environment may have the norms of building stair cases instead of rails or building two gendered bathrooms instead of a gender neutral bathroom, these norms still go against what the minority expressively needs and deems as inclusion. 

How We Can Fix the Issue 

We can fix this problem that has plagued the public spaces of large urban cities like Atlanta as the majority by creating an open space for all people regardless of their role in the society and not look at them as burdens but as extensions of our society. We can start by demolishing the stigmas associated with the alienated groups of Atlanta and not see them as issues that need to be casted out. Then we should have them be able to access the same public spaces that they previously couldn’t and have them be a part of the general public while still keeping their identity and not forcing them to accept the ideals or lifestyles imposed on by the ‘normal’ population. By keeping their identity, we are accepting them into the general masses instead of them being labeled as outliers and outcasts. Even in Curbed’s article on society’s obsession with gendering everything, we see that by labeling things as female or male we exclude the fluidity that gender relations is going through in our modern age. Nersassova also talks about how the homeless population wishes not to be a part of the public but to be accepted by them and given the same usage of the public space without fear. All these groups want to be accepted and not changed. They want to be included in the society as unique aspects of the public and not just assimilated into a homogenous community. The true change they wish to see in Atlanta is to be represented in the built environment and to have the same opportunities to enjoy their city and public space without having to look everywhere and see an environment that was not built for them.

Built Environment Description: Delta

April 3, 2016 / / 0 Comments

This siteI chose was Delta. This site targets most groups like families who are seen on the images on the website where they are most likely taking family vacations. They also target to business people who are frequent fliers and the site also even targets them by creating deals and cards set up for those types of people. This universal attraction of all groups is shown through the website by its extreme simplicity and easy maneuverability. The site has no obstacles and if anything has tabs to bypass any obstacles that might stand with having too much information on a site. The color scheme of the website also stands true for all the pages and links on Delta which is red, blue, and white. With everything following this color pattern. it makes everything look cohesive and well put together. The obvious use of the American flag colors also makes me feel like the company has a deep root in the US. This patriotic theme also makes me feel at peace and safe with their information and company as a whole. The tabs on the home page lead you to different pages along the site and all of them are tailored to the specific item you are searching for. And though the site seems to have a plethora of information, it is all well put together in different links so that card information won’t be muddled with information on the Delta charity. This distinguished labeling helps the audience maneuver the website and therefore makes it more approachable to other people who may be experiencing the site for the first time.

Better Online Living through Content Moderation

March 7, 2016 / / 0 Comments

content-moderation

Importance of Content Moderation

The article opens up the overall tone of this message well by first addressing the importance of having content moderation as an option for all internet users. Not only are all people going through different struggles and issues but all people have different ranges of sensitivity to the things said online and because of this free reign to post whatever you want, there should be a filter through which people can block out triggering information. And though our society views this filter as a way of cushioning the ‘weak’, it also acts as a organization tool that people can use when not all content on the internet is pertinent or relevant to them. And with the internet being a  unmoderated mode of expression, having content moderation helps those take back control of the things they wish to encounter while surfing this open world. Especially in an increasingly open and transparent world, the importance of practicing safety from verbal abuse or threats is an increasingly pertinent tool to have not just for those who are dealing with PTSD but to anyone who doesn’t want to see the constant abuse of a friend online. Having an easy access to block out the hurtful comments makes it easier to take control of your online environment.

The Other Side of the Argument 

This article also showcases the thoughts of the opposing force well without condescending their notions. The opposing force seems to think that in order to build up a stronger society that there has to be an environment of free exposure without content moderation. The constant exposure is likened to that of Exposure Theory when treating fears. But what they lack to see in this ordeal of moderation, is that exposure to such a negative environment for long periods of time will do more harm for the personal psyche than good. Not taking into consideration the legality of online bullying, the opposing force sees this as a way of silencing certain people’s voice. They see the solution as easy as just deleting the app or staying off the internet.

How It Can Impact Others

Though all the points held by the opposing force all hold some thread of credibility, we can also see that they only address the issue without looking at the certain impact it can have on the person. Content Moderation is an important aspect to have on the internet since the impact of certain images, ideas, or opinions on the internet is subjective and is differently perceived by other people. And with the experiences and backgrounds of other people varying to such a degree, we see that Content Moderation is a good fluid way to address the different needs that people need online. And since the filtering is not impeding on anyone else’s rights, there should be no issue in whether or not a person can legally hold their own power of what they encounter online. Each person should be able to set up their own boundaries and create a safe environment where they can experience being online just like everyone else instead of being told to ‘stay off the internet’ as a solution.
