Some of these cultures that will be discussed are: Tribal, Ancient Middle East, Islamic, Western, Eastern, and Modern times. Diving deeper into how people of these cultures studied how the mind works, showcases why these cultures have their certain beliefs about what dreams are and what dreams can do for them.

Straznicky, Joseph- “What happened to you?: The use of rap music therapy with patients with trauma, oppositional defiant and mood dysregulation.” (session 4B) This presentation will proceed to present rap music therapy as a vehicle for change, utilized as a tool of narrative therapy. Rap music will provide the individual with a voice and allow them to write their story with their own words. The Narrative Therapy Centre defines narrative therapy as, “a collaborative and non-pathologizing approach to counseling and community work which centers people as the experts of their own lives”. Rap music will be the motor vehicle for the patient to rewrite their past trauma, understand their past behaviors and allow them to regulate their mood in the face of disruption. Talbot, Helena- “Young Women in Marquez and Harukami” (session 3A) This project explores/examines cultural attitudes towards women in Japanese and Columbian cultures. To explore this, I analyze characters from novels by Columbian author, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and Japanese, Haruki Marukami. I’ll be working with One Hundred Years of Solitude, Chronicle of a Death Foretold, After Dark, and Kafka on the Shore. I suggest you can tell a lot about a culture by how they treat their women. In these works, that proves to be true. This project looks into the treatment/characterization of young women in these works and compares it to cultural attitudes found in their respective countries.
