Jesse Peterson lives by the sweat of his brow and doesn't hold back from defending his beliefs-even if that means getting dirty and breaking a few noses in the process. It goes without saying that his tendency to let his fists do the talking hasn't come without a price. His family's intolerance of his behavior, and his own distaste for the town's corruption, have set him on a downward spiral from which he can't seem to recover. With the growing sense of his personal convictions being too big for such a small town, he wonders if there's still good reason to stay. That question is answered the instant Quinn Dixon crosses his path. As strong as she is beautiful, Quinn steals Jesse's heart right away. But in Honeywell, Alabama, the horrors of Jim Crow are an everyday occurrence. Forced to settle for passing glances and secret rendezvous, neither has forgotten that these stolen moments could cost them everything. Their freedom. Their lives. Once they've fallen, there's simply no such thing as a life apart. Their love is forbidden, but is the truest either has ever found. For that, they're willing to risk it all. His conviction gives her hope. Her strength makes him believe. Their love defies reason. *AUTHOR NOTE: "CHASING MOONLIGHT" is the third standalone novel within the "AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME" family saga.

Download or read book Heroine of the Harlem Renaissance and Beyond written by Belinda Wheeler and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2018-05-17 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poet, columnist, artist, and fiction writer Gwendolyn Bennett is considered by many to have been one of the youngest leaders of the Harlem Renaissance and a strong advocate for racial pride and the rights of African American women. Heroine of the Harlem Renaissance and Beyond presents key selections of her published and unpublished writings and artwork in one volume. From poems, short stories, and reviews to letters, journal entries, and art, this collection showcases Bennett’s diverse and insightful body of work and rightfully places her alongside her contemporaries in the Harlem Renaissance—figures such as Zora Neale Hurston, Langston Hughes, and Countee Cullen. It includes selections from her monthly column “The Ebony Flute,” published in Opportunity, the magazine of the National Urban League, as well as newly uncovered post-1928 work that proves definitively that Bennett continued writing throughout the following two decades. Bennett’s correspondence with canonical figures from the period, her influence on Harlem arts institutions, and her political writings, reviews, and articles show her deep connection to and lasting influence on the movement that shaped her early career. An indispensable introduction to one of the era’s most prolific and passionate minds, this reevaluation of Bennett’s life and work deepens our understanding of the Harlem Renaissance and enriches the world of American letters. It will be of special value to scholars and readers interested in African American literature and art and American history and cultural studies.

Download or read book Neither Black Nor White Yet Both written by Werner Sollors and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why can a "white" woman give birth to a "black" baby, while a "black" woman can never give birth to a "white" baby in the United States? What makes racial "passing" so different from social mobility? Why are interracial and incestuous relations often confused or conflated in literature, making "miscegenation" appear as if it were incest? Werner Sollors examines these questions and others in "Neither Black nor White yet Both," a fully researched investigation of literary works that, in the past, have been read more for a black-white contrast of "either-or" than for an interracial realm of "neither, nor, both, and in-between." From the origins of the term "race" to the cultural sources of the "Tragic Mulatto," and from the calculus of color to the retellings of various plots, Sollors examines what we know about race, analyzing recurrent motifs in scientific and legal works as well as in fiction, drama, and poetry.
