213,95 kr. Exposing fallacies and reestablishing new and undistorted ways of viewing the formation of Western society, the book shows how classic literature shaped the contemporary world in intricate and sometimes startlingly and brutally honest detail. Not satisfied with simply challenging the reader to think about things differently, the volume goes further, citing specific examples and offering instruction on how to begin to retrain oneself to think about the origins of modern society in other terms.

318,95 kr. Thomas Strickland Turner Sr. was born May 16, 1925 to Edward Daniel Turner and Maude Butler Turner. His struggles against racial discrimination and segregation began when he was a child. He and four of his eight siblings, Constance, Barbara, Leroy and Francis were among the African American students who were barred from attending the New Easttown Elementary School in Pennsylvania during 1932 because of their color. The discriminatory practices to institute segregation erupted into a fight for equal education for all students. Those involved in the struggle against segregation included local African American parents, the NAACP and Philadelphia lawyer, Raymond Pace Alexander. At that time, Mr. Turner's uncle Oscar Burwell Cobb was the president of the Main Line branch of the NAACP. They won the battle and Black children were granted the right to enter and attend the new Easttown School.

163,95 kr. "A Poet, Preacher, And Philosopher sit down to talk after greeting each other with warm laughter and the easy telling of quick stories from the last time they'd been together. There is genuine joy in the tones that emerge in their speech as the relax in the presence of each other's work and legacy. The commonality and differences in the paths they've walked and the ideas they've promulgated adds a respectful tension necessary for high-level exchange and learning. Knowledge of history suggest smiles are imminent from knowing that they are again in the company of those who have not only charged into uncounted battles for human rights and justice, it is their life commitment and practice. Their ideas and work have expanded in understand and delivery. They have been criticized and often misunderstood and yet, they stood, and are still standing, in the growing storm we face today."--From publisher's website.

188,95 kr. "For over thirty years Haki R. Madhubuti has lead the national conversation on Black male empowerment and healing for our community. Taking Bullets: terrorism and Black life in twenty-first century America continues that conversation with a new urgency for the lives and survival of a new generation of Black men and boys who are confronted with much of the same disparity and adversity on the streets of every city in America. Madhubuti speaks directly to these young men with an empathic understanding of their plight, yet he sees hope and a vision for their future. He wants them to see this same hope and vision for themselves. In Taking Bullets, he also challenges community leaders, educators, and all of those individuals who directly impact the lives of our young men to develop sustained strategies to confront and challenge the systematic problems of police violence, mass incarceration and economic disparity"--Provided by publisher.

318,95 kr. Dr. Aminifu R. Harvey's compilation of his selected writings is enormously important for those interested in Afrocentric theory and practice. Dr. Harvey has provided the necessary confluence between Afrocentric theory and practice and how this link can be used to explain and resolve the pressing mental and social problems that have afflicted people of African ancestry. His work is seminal because he is the first trained social worker in the U.S. to incorporate the cultural principles and practices of traditional Africa into the social work/human service profession's written knowledge base. This is a major accomplishment for at least two reasons. Although social work's written knowledge base had begun to integrate what was referred to as "the Black Perspective" in the 1970s, this perspective largely focused on African-Americans' experiences with racial oppression in the U.S. and how they resisted and creatively adapted to that oppression. Little, if any, attention has been given to how the legacy of traditional Africa influenced the lives of Black people. Second, the professional acknowledgement of traditional African cultural principles and practices allowed Dr. Harvey to initiate the critical work of codifying these principles and practices into a coherent model of human service practice and research. Dr. Harvey can and should be viewed as one of the "founders" of what we now commonly refer to as "culturally competent" mental health and human service practice. This book is a must read for those who seek to better understand the evolution of the Afrocentric paradigm as one of the earliest expressions of using an oppressed group's culture as the foundation for professional practice."-Jerome H. Schiele, D.S.W., Bowie State University Department of Social Work
