The world has seen a lot of unrest in the last two weeks in the wake of George Floyd's death. People everywhere are demanding government action in regards to the disproportionate killings and incarcerations of black Americans. Those who are unwilling or unable to be on the frontlines contending with police can still support the movement from home by watching Zoe Amira's YouTube video, which features content from black creators and is full of ad breaks to maximize the video's revenue. Amira is donating 100% of the proceeds to Black Lives Matter. This is a peaceful, positive way to show support for black lives right now, especially for those who do not have a lot of extra income to donate.
We all want to be happy. Research in psychology, sociology, philosophy, and business has explored the role of happiness in modern life. This website shares the efforts of Honors students and faculty at the University of New Mexico to investigate and apply common happiness practices to our own lives through a one-credit class. While only class members may post new content to this site, the general public is welcome to submit moderated comments.
