Download or read book Juggling Identities written by Seth D. Kunin and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Juggling Identities is an extensive ethnography of the crypto-Jews who live deep within the Hispanic communities of the American Southwest. Critiquing scholars who challenge the cultural authenticity of these individuals, Seth D. Kunin builds a solid link between the crypto-Jews of New Mexico and their Spanish ancestors who secretly maintained their Jewish identity after converting to Catholicism, offering the strongest evidence yet of their ethnic and religious origins. Kunin adopts a unique approach to the lives of modern crypto-Jews, concentrating primarily on their understanding of Jewish tradition and the meaning they ascribe to ritual. He illuminates the complexity of this community, in which individuals and groups perform the same practice in diverse ways. Kunin supplements his ethnographic research with broader theories concerning the nature of identity and memory, which is especially applicable to crypto-Jews, whose culture resides mainly in memory. Kunin's work has wider implications, not only for other forms of crypto-Judaism (such as that found in the former Soviet Union) but also for the study of Judaism's fluid nature, which helps adherents adapt to new circumstances and knowledge. Kunin draws fascinating comparisons between the intricate ancestry of crypto-Jews and those of other ethnic communities living in the United States.

Download or read book The Juggle Is Real written by Molly Grantham and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-27 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Anchor. Author. Mom." What you don't normally see on television from journalist Molly Grantham is how behind the polished image, she's juggling to keep the balls of life up in the air. The Juggle is Real shines a raw and funny light on the messy realities so many of us face: the constant rotation of whatever's barreling toward us next. Grantham's first book, Small Victories, ended beside her mother's hospice bed. That's where this one begins-seeing the circle of life through her children's eyes. From there, it's a chronicle of ups and downs, including endless arguments over what to wear, emergency surgeries, beloved pets, and the hysterical one-kid parade of her son's battery-operated mini ice-cream truck through busy city streets. All interwoven with Grantham's public and often nutty job. Her honesty will have you crying and laughing out loud at this continuing story of loving kids and a career. "Molly Grantham is real. And her authenticity as a mom and a fallible human being shines through every one of her pages in this compelling collection of parenting essays." - The Huffington Post "Am I brave enough to admit my mothering-fail moments to the world, especially a world in which people are viciously judgmental about other people's parenting? And even more, would I be willing to do that if I worked in an industry where a polished, perfect appearance is part of the job description? I'm not sure. But thank God, Molly is." Kimmery Martin, Author, The Queen of Hearts and The Antidote to Everything "With humor, heart, and a willingness to bare her soul-even when it might seem a little uncomfortable to do so-Molly proves once again that she is gifted at telling tales at motherhood as she is at delivering the news every night." Theoden James, Charlotte Observer "The Juggle is Real deftly captures moments of parenthood and life that are so poignant and beautiful that it stops your heart for a beat." Betsy Thorpe, Literary Services

Download or read book High Achiever written by Tiffany Jenkins and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2019-06-18 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • An up-close portrait of the mind of an addict and a life unraveled by narcotics—a memoir of captivating urgency and surprising humor that puts a human face on the opioid crisis. “Raw, brutal, and shocking. Move over, Orange Is the New Black.”—Amy Dresner, author of My Fair Junkie When word got out that Tiffany Jenkins was withdrawing from opiates on the floor of a jail cell, people in her town were shocked. Not because of the twenty felonies she’d committed, or the nature of her crimes, or even that she’d been captain of the high school cheerleading squad just a few years earlier, but because her boyfriend was a Deputy Sherriff, and his friends—their friends—were the ones who’d arrested her. A raw and twisty page-turning memoir that reads like fiction, High Achiever spans Tiffany’s life as an active opioid addict, her 120 days in a Florida jail where every officer despised what she’d done to their brother in blue, and her eventual recovery. With heart-racing urgency and unflinching honesty, Jenkins takes you inside the grips of addiction and the desperate decisions it breeds. She is a born storyteller who lived an incredible story, from blackmail by an ex-boyfriend to a soul-shattering deal with a drug dealer, and her telling brims with suspense and unexpected wit. But the true surprise is her path to recovery. Tiffany breaks through the stigma and silence to offer hope and inspiration to anyone battling the disease—whether it’s a loved one or themselves.
