The length of all the sides of the white triangle are equal to the width of the flag. Each star is oriented in such manner that one of its tips points towards the vertex at which it is located.[2] Moreover the gap-angle between two neighbours of the 8 ray-bundles is as large as the angle of one ray-bundle (so 22.5°), and its major ray is twice as "thick" as its two minor rays.[3] The golden sun is not exactly in the center of the triangle but shifted slightly to the right.[4] Construction sheet of the Philippine flag. Color[edit] The shade of blue used in the flag has varied over time, beginning with the original color azul oscuro. The flag's colors are specified by Republic Act 8491 in terms of their cable number in the system developed by the Color Association of the United States.[2][6] The official colors and their approximations in other color spaces are listed below:.[7]
Racial Formation Theory. Race is a social concept[edit] In order to delve further into the topic of racial formation, it is important to explore the question of what "race" is.
Racial formation theory is a framework that has the objective of deconstructing race as it exists today in the United States. To do this, the authors first explore the historical development of race as a dynamic and fluid social construct. This goes against the dominant discourses on race, which see race as a static and unchanging concept based purely on physical and genetic criteria. Instead of claiming race as something that is concrete, where the person's biology and upbringing are what shape racial identity, Omi and Winant suggest that race is something that is fluid, where "the racial order is organized and enforced by the continuity and reciprocity between micro-level and macro-level of social relations".

Paul Kramer. Elizabeth Lunbeck, The Americanization of Narcissism (Harvard University Press, 2014) History has been an integral part of the undergraduate and graduate curriculum at Vanderbilt since the University was founded, in 1873.
The first undergraduate students of the discipline immersed themselves in subjects as various as the Roman Empire, English constitutional history, the history of religion (including Islam), political economy, and contemporary American politics. Graduate study came early—in the 1880s—to Vanderbilt. Taught in weekly seminars, a new instructional form, students were expected to master the standard texts—in ancient history and in legal history, for example—while the more advanced among them engaged in innovative research on such issues as the Civil War, local government in the South and Southwest, and the tariff, Henry George and socialism. Vanderbilt’s first PhD in history was awarded in 1899, one of only three awarded in the South before 1900. Filipino-American Literature.
