Martha and the other Ingram Family members have all been the donors to and/or directors of, various family foundations and private Donor Advised Funds over the years. Currently most of the Ingram family relies on Donor Advised Funds administered through the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee (CMFT) for their philanthropy. The move to Donor Advised Funds holds several advantages over those of a family foundation; not the least of which is the ability make large gifts anonymously and not disclose asset and donation information.

Ruth Benedict’s anthropological book, Patterns of Culture explores the dualism of culture and personality. Benedict studies different cultures such as the Zuni tribe and the Dobu Indians. Each culture she finds is so different and distinctive in relation to the norm of our society. Each difference is what makes it unique. Benedict compares the likenesses of culture and individuality, “A culture, like an individual, is a more or less consistent pattern of thought or action” (46), but note, they are not the same by use of the word, “like.” Benedict is saying that figuratively, cultures are like personalities. Culture and individuality are intertwined and dependent upon each other for survival.

In 1942, Margaret Walker won the Yale Series of Younger Poets Award for her poem For My People. This accomplishment heralded the beginning of Margaret Walker’s literary career which spanned from the brink of the Harlem Renaissance of the 1930s to the cusp of the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s (Gates and McKay 1619). Through her fiction and poetry, Walker became a prominent voice in the African-American community. Her writing, especially her signature novel, Jubilee, exposes her readers to the plight of her race by accounting the struggles of African Americans from the pre-Civil War period to the present and ultimately keeps this awareness relevant to contemporary American society.

Watchers go into deep that women are not dolls that everyone can play with the physically and emotionally. Where everyone needs to have a pause and think about this, she also indicates it never makes the models to be happy, they only feel insecure. The models are acting in front of the camera, because they never say that they are insecure in front of the camera. As a model Cameroon comes forwards to tell the true color of the modeling industries. She also mentions that the technicians, photographers, etc whoever is working in the industry work hard to get the best outcome, however still the field is not true what we see outside is all
