Download or read book Fighting Women written by Victoria Katherine Burbank and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-07-26 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fighting is common among contemporary Aboriginal women in Mangrove, Australia. Women fight with men and with other women—often with “the other woman.” Victoria Burbank’s depiction of these women offers a powerful new perspective that can be applied to domestic violence in Western settings. Noting that Aboriginal women not only talk without shame about their angry emotions but also express them in acts of aggression and defense, Burbank emphasizes the positive social and cultural implications of women’s refusal to be victims. She explores questions of hierarchy and the expression of emotions, as well as women’s roles in domestic violence. Human aggression can be experienced and expressed in different ways, she says, and is not necessarily always “wrong.” Fighting Women is relevant to discussions of aggression and gender relations in addition to debates on the victimization of women and children everywhere. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.

Download or read book Dangerous Sisters of the Hebrew Bible written by Amy Kalmanofsky and published by Augsburg Fortress Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fathers, sons, and mothers take center stage in the Bibles grand narratives, Amy Kalmanofsky observes. Sisters and sisterhood receive less attention in scholarship but, she argues, play an important role in narratives, revealing anxieties related to desire, agency, and solidarity among women playing out (and playing against) their roles in a patrilineal society. Most often, she shows, sisters are destabilizing figures in narratives about family crisis, where property, patrimony, and the resilience of community boundaries are at risk. Kalmanofsky demonstrates that the particular role of sisters had important narrative effects, revealing previously underappreciated dynamics in Israelite society.

Book excerpt: An encouraging guide to helping parents find more happiness in their day-to-day family life, from the former lead editor of the New York Times' Motherlode blog. In all the writing and reporting KJ Dell'Antonia has done on families over the years, one topic keeps coming up again and again: parents crave a greater sense of happiness in their daily lives. In this optimistic, solution-packed book, KJ asks: How can we change our family life so that it is full of the joy we'd always hoped for? Drawing from the latest research and interviews with families, KJ discovers that it's possible to do more by doing less, and make our family life a refuge and pleasure, rather than another stress point in a hectic day. She focuses on nine common problem spots that cause parents the most grief, explores why they are hard, and offers small, doable, sometimes surprising steps you can take to make them better. Whether it's getting everyone out the door on time in the morning or making sure chores and homework get done without another battle, How to Be a Happier Parent shows that having a family isn't just about raising great kids and churning them out at destination: success. It's about experiencing joy--real joy, the kind you look back on, look forward to, and live for--along the way.

Download or read book Two Sisters written by Åsne Seierstad and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The riveting true story of two sisters’ journey to the Islamic State and the father who tries to bring them home Two Sisters, by the international bestselling author Åsne Seierstad, tells the unforgettable story of a family divided by faith. Sadiq and Sara, Somali immigrants raising a family in Norway, one day discover that their teenage daughters, Leila and Ayan, have vanished—and are en route to Syria to aid the Islamic State. Seierstad’s riveting account traces the sisters’ journey from secular, social democratic Norway to the front lines of the war in Syria, and follows Sadiq’s harrowing attempt to find them. Employing the same mastery of narrative suspense she brought to The Bookseller of Kabul and One of Us, Seierstad puts the problem of radicalization into painfully human terms, using instant messages and other primary sources to reconstruct a family’s crisis from the inside. Eventually, she takes us into the hellscape of the Syrian civil war, as Sadiq risks his life in pursuit of his daughters, refusing to let them disappear into the maelstrom—even after they marry ISIS fighters. Two Sisters is a relentless thriller and a feat of reporting with profound lessons about belief, extremism, and the meaning of devotion.

Download or read book The I of Me written by Niqqi and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the process of self-analysis and self-compassion, it is possible to heal years of compounded trauma and ‘baggage’. It is a natural process to respond to traumas by storing emotional baggage by repressing hurtful memories. It is normal to expect the worst in an effort to self-preserve. This negative expectation leads to long-term faulty thinking; and eventually subconscious self-destruction through learned helplessness. Niqqi has spent a decade studying trauma and its effects. There is no escaping trauma through denial. When we attempt to do so, we bury them and give them control over our minds, bodies, souls, and hearts. Niqqi lived for years as a survivor of compounded trauma - in denial. She viewed herself as successful. Her favorite line was: “I don’t look like what I’ve been through!” She had no idea she looked exactly like what she had been through – internally. She began to take analysis of herself. She learned that her past traumas were buried inside of her psyche, controlling every aspect of her life. Her family lived in extreme poverty when she was young. She was kidnapped at the age of ten. She experienced physical and mental abuse, as well as neglect, throughout her childhood. She married an abusive man who held her hostage for hours and attempted to take her life. Through self-awareness and self-compassion, she learned how to face trauma head-on in an effort to minimize its effects. In order to conquer trauma we have to go through it; not over it, not around it, and not under it – but straight through it. Niqqi no longer views herself as a victim who survived and became a survivor. She is a Thrive-or! Through self-analysis and self-compassion, learn how to minimize and eliminate baggage by discovering The I of YOU!
