Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrating the wealth of quality multicultural literature recently published for children and young adults, this valuable resource examines the fiction, oral tradition, and poetry from four major ethnic groups in the United States. Each of these genres is considered in turn for the literature dealing with African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Native-American Indians. Taking up where their earlier volume This Land is Our Land left off, Helbig and Perkins have teamed up once again to identify and expertly evaluate more than 500 multicultural books published from 1994 through 1999. Both considered authorities in the field of children's literature, the two of them personally selected, read, and evaluated all the books included here. Their insightful annotations help readers carefully consider both literary standards such as plot development, characterization, and style, as well as cultural values as they are represented in these cited works. Each entry also indicates the suggested age and grade level appropriateness of the work. With the proliferation and ever increasing popularity of multicultural literature for children and young adults, this sensitively written volume will serve as an invaluable collection development tool. Teachers, as well as librarians, will find the comprehensiveness and organization of this bibliography helpful as a guide in selecting appropriate materials for classroom use. Even students will find this book easy to use, with its five indexes identifying works by title, writer, illustrator, grade level, and subject. Public libraries and school media centers will find much use for Many Peoples, One Land.
Download or read book Brown Gumshoes written by Ralph E. Rodriguez and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2005-11-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular fiction, with its capacity for diversion, can mask important cultural observations within a framework that is often overlooked in the academic world. Works thought to be merely "escapist" can often be more seriously mined for revelations regarding the worlds they portray, especially those of the disenfranchised. As detective fiction has slowly earned critical respect, more authors from minority groups have chosen it as their medium. Chicana/o authors, previously reluctant to write in an underestimated genre that might further marginalize them, have only entered the world of detective fiction in the past two decades. In this book, the first comprehensive study of Chicano/a detective fiction, Ralph E. Rodriguez examines the recent contributions to the genre by writers such as Rudolfo Anaya, Lucha Corpi, Rolando Hinojosa, Michael Nava, and Manuel Ramos. Their works reveal the struggles of Chicanas/os with feminism, homosexuality, familia, masculinity, mysticism, the nationalist subject, and U.S.-Mexico border relations. He maintains that their novels register crucial new discourses of identity, politics, and cultural citizenship that cannot be understood apart from the historical instability following the demise of the nationalist politics of the Chicana/o movement of the 1960s and 1970s. In contrast to that time, when Chicanas/os sought a unified Chicano identity in order to effect social change, the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s have seen a disengagement from these nationalist politics and a new trend toward a heterogeneous sense of self. The detective novel and its traditional focus on questions of knowledge and identity turned out to be the perfect medium in which to examine this new self.

The Medicine Way is actually seven books in one being that of: The Medicine of Prayer - The How To and Why of Prayer Earthwalk - The "How To" of being incarnate on Mother Earth Walking the Round Way - The How To of Relationships The Medicine Wheel - Not only the How To, but also the Why and What of it Mineral Spirit Medicine - Describes the Medicine and potential support from many of the different stones and minerals that White Eagle uses in his practice of the Medicine Way. Plant Spirit Medicine - Describes the Medicine and essential nature of most of the common trees and plants. Also described is the Medicine of the Spirit of common food plants as well the support one can receive from many of the herbs listed. Animal Spirit Medicine - Includes what different animals mean in vision or dreams as well as in one's daily encounters. After two decades this material has finally undergone formal editing and in the process its coverage has become expanded even further than before. Now it has finally become available in printed form in both color and black and white versions.

Book excerpt: ALL GREAT THINGS ARE ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH ADVERSITY. Twenty-four year old Luke is a ski instructor raised by his grandfather who instills in him the value of moral character. Trying to find his place in the world he feels called to do something more meaningful with his life. When Lukes car is hit by an SUV, he has a near-death experience. Shortly thereafter his grandfather passes on. As he struggles with his loss, his uncle enlists his help on a film project that will document the soldiers who have fallen in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. While filming at Arlington National Cemetery, Luke is deeply affected by the grieving families and the devastating loss of life. As a result he feels inwardly compelled to visit the gravesite of the 35th U.S. President, John F. Kennedy. There he solemnly vows in front of the eternal flame to take on the mantle of leadership and bring the truth to light for the American people who are being deceived and misled by the news media, even if it means his own demise. Realizing that there is no turning back, Luke commits to the quest to discover his destiny, and in the process is taken under the auspices of an invisible hierarchy of Ascended Masters responsible for guiding the United States. As the pieces of the puzzle begin to fall into place, Luke falls in love with a beautiful woman, Jane, a writer whose fame represents a seemingly unsurpassable obstacle. Through it all Luke has to learn to confront his fears and develop the necessary trust that no matter how implausible the circumstances appear, nothing is impossible when you follow your heart.
