Download or read book In Their Presence written by Dale Napolin Bratter and published by Mianus River Press. This book was released on 2023-06-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Their Presence is Dale Napolin Bratter's remarkable memoir in which she sensitively and skillfully reveals in-depth stories of the lives of marginalized African American women and children in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, during the height of the AIDS epidemic. As a new social worker, Dale found herself swept up in the turbulence created by the virus, a disease unlike any other because everything about it was cloaked in secrecy and fraught with stigma, misinformation, misogyny, and the overwhelming public fear of AIDS. Embedded in these deeply moving chapters, are never-before-told stories of intimacies, heroic acts, joys and failures-her clients' as well as her own. These women and children received the same terrifying diagnosis as gay men but had no powerful advocates fighting for them, little media recognition, and no celebrity attention. Their lives, their deaths, and their stories of survival deserve to be recognized as missing chapters in the early history of the AIDS epidemic in America. Dale Bratter has spent four decades working in a variety of capacities with vulnerable and marginalized women and children. Her commentaries on social issues have appeared in Hearst publications. This witness memoir speaks to the depth of her compassion, fearlessness, and advocacy. Dale is retired and lives in Connecticut with her husband. She has a son living in Great Britain, and she enjoys the company of her close-by daughter, her eight grandchildren, forty-one koi, and the nearby birds, wildlife, and hiking trails.

Book In a Rocket Made of Ice

Download or read book In a Rocket Made of Ice written by Gail Gutradt and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-08-12 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully told, inspiring true story of one woman’s volunteer experiences at an orphanage in rural Cambodia—a book that embodies the belief that love, compassion, and generosity of spirit can overcome even the most fearsome of obstacles. Gail Gutradt was at a crossroads in her life when she learned of the Wat Opot Children’s Community. Begun with just fifty dollars in the pocket of Wayne Dale Matthysse, a former Marine Corps medic in Vietnam, Wat Opot, a temple complex nestled among Cambodia’s verdant rice paddies, was once a haunted scrubland that became a place of healing and respite where children with or orphaned by HIV/AIDS could live outside of fear or judgment, and find a new family—a place that Gutradt calls “a workshop for souls.” Disarming, funny, deeply moving, In a Rocket Made of Ice gathers the stories of children saved and changed by this very special place, and of one woman’s transformation in trying to help them. With wry perceptiveness and stunning humanity and humor, this courageous, surprising, and evocative memoir etches the people of Wat Opot forever on your heart.

Book Visions and Revisions

Download or read book Visions and Revisions written by Dale Peck and published by Soho Press. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A coming-of-age tale for both the gay community at large and a nation coming to terms with that community’s place in American society” (The Boston Globe). Part memoir, part extended essay, Visions and Revisions is a foray into the period between 1987, when the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) was founded, and 1996, when medical advances transformed AIDS from a virtual death sentence into a chronic manageable illness. Offering a sweeping, collage-style portrait of a tumultuous era, this book takes readers from the serial killings of gay men in New York, London, and Milwaukee, through Dale Peck’s first loves upon coming out of the closet, to the transformation of LGBT people from marginal, idealistic fighters to their present place in a world of widespread, if fraught, mainstream acceptance. Named as one of 2015’s best nonfiction books by Flavorwire, the narrative pays particular attention to the words and deeds of AIDS activists, offering a street-level portrait of ACT UP and considerations of AIDS-centered fiction and criticism of the time—as well as intimate, sometimes elegiac portraits of artists, activists, and HIV-positive people Peck knew. Peck’s fiery rhetoric against a government that sat on its hands for the first several years of the epidemic is tinged with the idealism of a young gay man discovering his political, artistic, and sexual identity. The result is “a flinty-eyed look into the heart of the H.I.V. epidemic, from the late 1980s until the development of protease inhibitors and combination therapies in the mid-1990s [and] a compelling snapshot of the social activism that defined the era” (The New York Times Book Review).

Book Martin and John

    Book Details:
  • Author : Dale Peck
  • Publisher : Soho Press
  • Release : 2015-02-10
  • ISBN : 1616954841
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book Martin and John written by Dale Peck and published by Soho Press. This book was released on 2015-02-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dale Peck’s debut is a tour de force in which Martin and John find each other again and again: in a trailer park, a high-end jewelry store, a Kansas barn, and later, in New York City, living under the shadow of the AIDS epidemic. Though their names remain the same, their identities are constantly shifting, creating a fractured view of loss and desire in the early years of the AIDS crisis. Vaulting through self and history, Martin and John is one of the most remarkable novels to emerge from an America ravaged by disease, and one of the finest and most complex love stories of the ’90s. Martin and John is the first volume of Gospel Harmonies, a series of seven stand-alone books (four have been written) which follow the character of John as he attempts to navigate the uneasy relationship between the self and the postmodern world.

Book Identifying and Supporting Children with Specific Learning Difficulties

Download or read book Identifying and Supporting Children with Specific Learning Difficulties written by Pamela Deponio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-12-16 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many children experience difficulties which impact on their learning at home and school. Some children are considered to have a specific learning difficulty such as dyslexia or dyspraxia, but other children display a range of indicators which cross the boundaries of specific named 'conditions'. If teachers are to offer appropriate support, the authors of this highly practical book argue that they must look beyond the label to assess the whole child. This is an informative book which: * encourages teachers to consider children as individuals rather than attempting to match them to existing sets of indicators * pinpoints the overlap of indicators within different specific learning difficulties * considers the process of assessment * explains the implications of the children's difficulties * offers tried-and-tested strategies to promote inclusive learning. Teachers, teaching assistants, Special Educational Needs Co-ordinators and students undertaking teacher education courses will all find this a refreshingly accessible book.
