But it's the only home that bi-racial teen mom, Chrysta Perry, knows. At nineteen, she lives with her stern grandmother, Ms. Jane and has three interests, men, money and "doing hair". Church is no longer in the picture for neighbor, Janice Rivers, a twenty-eight year old ex- soloist and mother of two. The reclusive Janice moved into General Oaks following several beatings, handed out by her husband. Finally, Kimberly Mayes has just moved in around the corner. At twenty-three, she has always been headstrong and ambitious; now she finds herself newly widowed and raising three children under the age of five alone. Each of these three women has big dreams and knows that they will never be realized with their current paychecks.

Download or read book After Artest written by David J. Leonard and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 19, 2004, a fight between NBA players Ron Artest and Ben Wallace escalated into a melee involving several other players and many fans. The "Palace Brawl," writes David J. Leonard, was a seminal event, one that dramatically altered outside perceptions of the sport. With commentators decrying the hip hop or gangsta culture of players, the blackness of the NBA was both highlighted and disdained. This was a harsh blow to the league's narrative of colorblindness long cultivated by Commissioner David Stern and powerfully embodied in the beloved figure of Michael Jordan. As Leonard demonstrates, the league viewed this moment as a threat needing intervention, quickly adopting policies to govern black players and prevent them from embracing styles and personas associated with blackness. This fascinating book discloses connections between the NBA's discourse and the broader discourse of antiblack racism. Particular policy changes that seemed aimed at black players, such as the NBA dress code and the debate over a minimum age requirement, are explored.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 2006, Tavis Smiley teamed up with other leaders in the black community to create a national plan of action to address the ten most crucial issues facing African Americans. The Covenant with Black America ... ran the gamut from health care to criminal justice, affordable housing to education, voting rights to racial divides. But a decade later, black men still fall to police bullets and brutality, black women still die from preventable diseases, black children still struggle to get a high quality education, the digital divide and environmental inequality still persist ... So Smiley calls for a renewal of The Covenant, presenting in this new edition the original action plan--with a new foreword and conclusion--alongside fresh data from the Indiana University School of Public & Environmental Affairs (SPEA) to underscore missed opportunities and the work that remains to be done"--Amazon.com.
