Download or read book From Panthers to Promise Keepers written by Judith Lowder Newton and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2005 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Panthers to Promise Keepers draws on intimate observations of the men and networks who were involved in what some have called Othe menOs movementO and tells us why these networks mattered. Focusing on the decades between 1950 and 2000, it argues that while public, structural change is necessary for gender equality, getting men involved in efforts at social justice may well depend on their making changes with respect to feelings and with respect to their unconscious fears and anxieties as well.

Download or read book The Portland Black Panthers written by Lucas N. N. Burke and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portland, Oregon, though widely regarded as a liberal bastion, also has struggled historically with ethnic diversity; indeed, the 2010 census found it to be “America’s whitest major city.” In early recognition of such disparate realities, a group of African American activists in the 1960s formed a local branch of the Black Panther Party in the city’s Albina District to rally their community and be heard by city leaders. And as Lucas Burke and Judson Jeffries reveal, the Portland branch was quite different from the more famous—and infamous—Oakland headquarters. Instead of parading through the streets wearing black berets and ammunition belts, Portland’s Panthers were more concerned with opening a health clinic and starting free breakfast programs for neighborhood kids. Though the group had been squeezed out of local politics by the early 1980s, its legacy lives on through the various activist groups in Portland that are still fighting many of the same battles. Combining histories of the city and its African American community with interviews with former Portland Panthers and other key players, this long-overdue account adds complexity to our understanding of the protracted civil rights movement throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Download or read book The DuSable Panthers written by Ira Berkow and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelve years before Kentucky and Texas Christian. Seven years after Jackie Robinson’s first at-bat in the Majors. A color barrier in both sports and in America was shattered—by a team of teenage boys. The weight of a season and the weight of growing up are burdens enough. For a high school basketball team in Chicago in 1954, the weight of history joined them every time they stepped onto the court. “The Wonder Five” were from DuSable High School, a predominantly black area of Chicago, a city with a harrowing record on race relations. It is also one of America’s preeminent basketball cities, and The Wonder Five’s spectacular skill and immense poise carried them through the season and into the record books as the first all-black team, led by a black coach, to reach the highest levels of an organized, integrated, traditional sports program in America. When DuSable reached the finals of the state tournament for Illinois, it made history the minute its five starters stepped onto the court. Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Ira Berkow goes in-depth to explore the historical and sociological background that led to DuSable, as well as painting that championship game in his inimitable style. In one of the most emotional, suspenseful, and bizarre games that anyone had ever seen, DuSable played a team from Mount Vernon, a small, southern Illinois town, predominantly white, save for its one star player. What happened in the game, and the aftermath, changed the lives of these young men forever.

Download or read book Gray Panthers written by Roger Sanjek and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-02-28 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1970, a sixty-five-year-old Philadelphian named Maggie Kuhn began vocally opposing the notion of mandatory retirement. Taking inspiration from the civil rights and anti-Vietnam War movements, Kuhn and her cohorts created an activist organization that quickly gained momentum as the Gray Panthers. After receiving national publicity for her efforts—she even appeared on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson—she gained thousands of supporters, young and old. Their cause expanded to include universal health care, nursing home reform, affordable and accessible housing, defense of Social Security, and elimination of nuclear weapons. Gray Panthers traces the roots of Maggie Kuhn's social justice agenda to her years as a YWCA and Presbyterian Church staff member. It tells the nearly forty-year story of the intergenerational grassroots movement that Kuhn founded and its scores of local groups. During the 1980s, more than one hundred chapters were tackling local and national issues. By the 1990s the ranks of older members were thinning and most young members had departed, many to pursue careers in public service. But despite its challenges, including Kuhn's death in 1995, the movement continues today. Roger Sanjek examines Gray Panther activism over four decades. Here the inner workings and dynamics of the movement emerge: the development of network leadership, local projects and tactics, conflict with the national office, and the intergenerational political ties that made the group unique among contemporary activist groups. Part ethnography, part history, part memoir, Gray Panthers draws on archives and interviews as well as the author's thirty years of personal involvement. With the impending retirement of the baby boomers, Sanjek's book will surely inform the debates and discussions to follow: on retirement, health care, and many other aspects of aging in a society that has long valued youth above all.

Download or read book The Black Panthers in the Midwest written by Andrew Witt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the community programs of the Black Panther Party, specifically those of the Milwaukee branch, with the aim of dispelling many of the existing stereotypes about the Party. Misconceptions range from the Party being labeled as bent on the violent destruction of the United States to it being an overwhelmingly sexist group. This book challenges stereotypes such as these by examining the community programs of the Party and by looking at the role of women in the Party. Witt argues that the Party was not an extremist group dedicated to overthrowing the government of the United States, but rather an organization committed to providing essential community services for lower-income and working-class African American communities around the nation.

Download or read book Black Panther written by Ira Madison and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2024-04-16 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: T’Challa fights for Wakanda’s future while reckoning with its past in this original Marvel super hero story. Isolated from the world, the African kingdom of Wakanda is a land of scientific and technological marvels unknown to countries even on its own continent. Previous rulers believed that their nation could only survive by closely guarding Wakanda’s secrets and keeping them out of the hands of those who would exploit and weaponize them. King T’Challa, the Black Panther, believes the time has come to share his nation’s knowledge and resources with the world, including former apartheid state Rudyarda. As Wakanda’s politicians debate for and against aiding a former colonized region with an infamous history, the kingdom’s past deeds come to light when T’Challa’s father, T’Chaka, is resurrected from the ancestral plane—prepared to reclaim both his rule and the Black Panther mantle. But T’Chaka isn’t the only one to return from the spiritual realm. As dead men rise and political rivals act against him, T’Challa turns to those he trusts most—Shuri, Okoye, and Misty Knight—to uncover who, or what, is responsible for bringing the dead back to life. As the chaos spirals around him, threatening all of Wakanda, T’Challa must face T’Chaka and acknowledge the failings of his father’s rule. Black Panther: Sins of the King is a collaborative novel by Ira Madison III, Geoffrey Thorne, Tananarive Due, Mohale Mashigo, and Steven Barnes.

Download or read book Tone in Yongning Na written by Alexis Michaud and published by Language Science Press. This book was released on 2017-04-26 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yongning Na, also known as Mosuo, is a Sino-Tibetan language spoken in Southwest China. This book provides a description and analysis of its tone system, progressing from lexical tones towards morphotonology. Tonal changes permeate numerous aspects of the morphosyntax of Yongning Na; they are not the product of a small set of phonological rules, but of a host of rules that are restricted to specific morphosyntactic contexts. Rich morphotonological systems have been reported in this area of Sino-Tibetan, but book-length descriptions remain few. This study of an endangered language contributes to a better understanding of the diversity of prosodic systems in East Asia. The analysis is based on original fieldwork data (made available online), collected over the course of ten years, commencing in 2006.
