Book excerpt: A. Nicole Alexander started life as a bright-eyed young girl just like many other women. She had dreams of finding the perfect life, but life had other plans for her. In her memoir, Digging Up Roots, Nicole writes of the search for her true path after almost two decades of living a lesbian lifestyle. "Maybe you were born this way." "You can't help who you love." "God is love and He loves you regardless." That's what the world wanted Nicole to believe about her lesbian lifestyle. The church told her she was demon possessed, an abomination to God's law, but what about the Christian women with whom she was intimate? She never felt that she chose to have certain feelings; she did, however, make the choice to stop fighting her urges. Through it all, she knew there was much more to her story than what others could see, but with so many contradictions in her life, it took Nicole years to make the final decision about what type of life she wanted to live. Nicole offers a practical look at how she became entangled in homosexuality, and how she fought her way out with God's help by digging up the roots and planting the seeds for a new life.

Download or read book Trace Your Roots with DNA written by Megan Smolenyak Smolenyak and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2004-10-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two of the country's top genealogists, this is the first book to explain how new and groundbreaking genetic testing can help you research your ancestry According to American Demographics, 113 million Americans have begun to trace their roots, making genealogy the second most popular hobby in the country (after gardening). Enthusiasts clamor for new information from dozens of subscription-based websites, email newsletters, and magazines devoted to the subject. For these eager roots-seekers looking to take their searches to the next level, DNA testing is the answer. After a brief introduction to genealogy and genetics fundamentals, the authors explain the types of available testing, what kind of information the tests can provide, how to interpret the results, and how the tests work (it doesn't involve digging up your dead relatives). It's in expensive, easy to do, and the results are accurate: It's as simple as swabbing the inside of your cheek and popping a sample in the mail. Family lore has it that a branch of our family emigrated to Argentina and now I've found some people there with our name. Can testing tell us whether we're from the same family? My mother was adopted and doesn't know her ethnicity. Are there any tests available to help her learn about her heritage? I just discovered someone else with my highly unusual surname. How can we find out if we have a common ancestor? These are just a few of the types of genealogical scenarios readers can pursue. The authors reveal exactly what is possible-and what is not possible-with genetic testing. They include case studies of both famous historial mysteries and examples of ordinary folks whose exploration of genetic genealogy has enabled them to trace their roots.

Download or read book Digging Our Own Graves written by Barbara Ellen Smith and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employment and production in the Appalachian coal industry have plummeted over recent decades. But the lethal black lung disease, once thought to be near-eliminated, affects miners at rates never before recorded. Digging Our Own Graves sets this epidemic in the context of the brutal assault, begun in the 1980s and continued since, on the United Mine Workers of America and the collective power of rank-and-file coal miners in the heart of the Appalachian coalfields. This destruction of militancy and working class power reveals the unacknowledged social and political roots of a health crisis that is still barely acknowledged by the state and coal industry. Barbara Ellen Smith’s essential study, now with an updated introduction and conclusion, charts the struggles of miners and their families from the birth of the Black Lung Movement in 1968 to the present-day importance of demands for environmental justice through proposals like the Green New Deal. Through extensive interviews with participants and her own experiences as an activist, the author provides a vivid portrait of communities struggling for survival against the corporate extraction of labor, mineral wealth, and the very breath of those it sends to dig their own graves.

Book excerpt: For many years I had wondered about my Great Grandfather Herron and his family.'s story. Presently, there seemed to be an urgency (unsure as to why) to see what the family had chosen to hide - maybe I would find nothing. But . . . I did. I began genealogy research in 2008. I have been led on some wonderful but exhausting journeys; none quite like the story of Betsy. Furthermore, I almost stopped researching my Herren family line with its plethora of mazes. Almost.There is great power in sharing a family story. It's hard to share hard or sensitive subjects. However, it forces us to press through the shame and embarrassment, then, we can choose to accept and heal. Family stories should be told. A great place to start is to ask yourself, "If I had to leave my children with one or two stories, which ones would I want them to know?" As for me, my daughter will be left with many stories . . . many. My cousins, too, know and understand my passion for family history. I never stop researching. It's in my blood. When my time is up, I pray the stories will still be told - as there will be many new ones. Probably a few with me as the main character. Anna Allison-Burgess

Download or read book Love WITH Accountability written by Aishah Shahidah Simmons and published by AK Press. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the current survivor-affirming awareness around sexual violence, child sexual abuse, most notably when it’s a family member or friend, is still a very taboo topic. There are approximately 42 million child sexual abuse survivors in the U.S. and millions of bystanders who look the other way as the abuse occurs and cover for the harm-doers with no accountability. Documentary filmmaker and survivor of child sexual abuse and adult rape, Aishah Shahidah Simmons invites diasporic Black people to join her in transformative storytelling that envisions a world that ends child sexual abuse without relying on the criminal justice system. Love WITH Accountability features compelling writings by child sexual abuse survivors, advocates, and Simmons’s mother, who underscores the detrimental impact of parents/caregivers not believing their children when they disclose their sexual abuse. This collection explores disrupting the inhumane epidemic of child sexual abuse, humanely.
