Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Things Daddy and 'nim taught me is not just a book. Rather it is the assembling of wisdom. Each of the wise sayin's or colloquialisms are filled with life lessons, stories, and questions for you to consider. What you will read are words that helped guide, shape and inspire me. Words that I began hearing as a young child. Words that stuck with me, challenged me, and held me accountable to myself and others.I remember hearing both my dad and my mother making short statements that were laden with meaning. It was at the tender age of five that daddy made a statement and it stopped me in my tracks. It was filled with a brief description of how people show up. And, as it were, I had to ask myself was I one of the people.It has always been a dream of mine to share the wisdom of my father, mother, and the elders who have been in my life with the world. The life lessons are as necessary today as they were in the past. So much of what is in this book is a part of what elders share in the hopes that their wisdom is given as a gift to the world and that someone is listening and living it out.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book gives readers the context they need to understand America's racial system and how it affects all Americans today. It explores the hidden history of race and white supremacy in the USA. It covers the creation of a mythological 'White race' in North America; the complex array of policies, programs, and decisions that promoted white supremacy across the whole USA; and the impact of America's racial system on all Americans - 'Whites' as well as 'Others.'The book sheds new light on the legacy of white supremacy in mainstream American culture and in key institutions such as education, housing, government, and health care. It opens the door to understanding the conflicting narratives that divide Americans today and building bridges for a better tomorrow. The authors are a biracial team of activist scholars (one African American, one White). They share personal and family stories that illustrate their very different experiences growing up in America. They also include the stories and legacies of America's diverse populations whose courage, cultures, and contributions are too often neglected in American education. The volume is well-researched, drawing on scholarship from a variety of fields, yet engaging and accessible.The book is for educators, activists, and the general public - anyone seeking a better understanding of a multicultural America. It includes discussion questions, a glossary, rich visuals, and references for further exploration. It will be an invaluable resource for undergraduate courses in American history, American studies, sociology, education, human services, or public administration, as well as for curious Americans who want to understand today's culture wars, political divisions, and how to build bridges across differences in their communities or workplaces.…
