Download or read book A Grateful People written by Willie Marie Porter and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was a dark time, but a light shone the way. It was a time of sadness, but also a time of joy. Green Grove was a place not only in terms of geography, but also in terms of a community with a mindset and paradigm of unparalleled and unending proportions. A Grateful People: An Historical Account of the Founding of a Community, chronicles the lives of the people who inhabited this piece of God's green earth-Green Grove, Lumpkin, Georgia. In Green Grove, some owned their land and taught their children to do the same, while others sharecropped and lived a different kind of life trying as best they could to eke out a living working for the landowner. They may have been working for a man who treated them differently while their parents taught them that being different did not make them less. It was because of Green Grove-the physical and psychological place-that the children who lived there were able to become productive citizens throughout the United States of America and the world. A Grateful People chronicles the life of a place that broke through the challenges of the times to create a place of hope where dreams of success became a reality with hard work and perseverance.
Download or read book Community In a Box written by Mark Birch and published by Mark Birch. This book was released on 2020-09-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical guide for community builders on building and scaling professional communities that thrive and transform the lives of the people within them through virtual and in-person events. Community is a hot topic in 2020. Enterprises, startups, investors, entrepreneurs, and creators are all jumping on board launching communities or building products for communities. This is especially timely given that a global pandemic has left people longing for human connection. And then there are the people like Mark Birch that just wanted to bring salespeople together. When Mark started the Enterprise Sales Forum, he had no big vision. It was just his way to convince salespeople and startup founders to meet and help each other. What started in a sweaty conference room for 50 people six years ago eventually blossomed into a community of 25,000 members and over 20 cities globally. Community-in-a-Box is a how-to guide into building and scaling a community from the ground up or reinvigorating existing communities. From the experiences of the Enterprise Sales Forum and other communities he launched, Mark weaves those stories into a book that leads you past the minefields and mistakes so you can confidently launch and grow a healthy community. Even though we all come to community building with our own motivations, the end result is a labor of love that positively impacts the lives of many. Through this book, you will also feel the impact of the power of community and what it takes to grab the spark and start a movement!

Download or read book Rainbow Bridge written by Wen Shaoxian and published by Everflow Publications. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 2002, WHO of the United Nations listed China’s Great Leap Forward, the two world wars and Stalin’s purge movement as the three most disastrous events of mankind in the 20th century. Rainbow Bridge reflects the chaotic years of the “Three Red Banners” pursued by the Communist Party of China (CPC). The “Three Red Banners,” namely, the CPC’s General Line for Socialist Construction, the Great Leap Forward and the people’s communes, focally representing the radical economic line of the CPC in late 1950s to early 1960s. This line had pushed the Chinese national economy to the verge of collapse. The novel exposes the shaping, the complete process and the disastrous consequences of the “Three Red Banners” with the “Great Leap Forward” as the main episode, through continuing describing Simon Chan’s experience and his relations with the people of various strata around him. It faithfully depicts the unprecedented nation-wide great famine caused by the “Three Red Banners” in an all-round way. The great famine, which leads to the death of more than thirty millions of people, lasts for as long as three years. The genuine friendship between Simon and Phoenix fostered through weal and woe during that time, their subtle relations and the tragedy in which Phoenix, this innocent, artless and beautiful country girl, drowns herself in the Rainbow River as a protest against the ultra-Leftist line, are an exceptionally sad and touching story of the Great Leap Forward. The novel gives authentic and detailed descriptions of all these things. Rainbow Bridge is the first and the only novel that exclusively gives a vivid, authentic and all-round narration of the Great Leap Forward movement so far.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation & Digital Theatremaking introduces a blueprint for how to think differently about Theatre, how to respond creatively in uncertainty, and how to wield whatever resources are available to create new work in new ways. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic had a colossal impact on theatre across the world. At a time when even the wealthiest and best-supported theatre companies in the world ceased all operations and shuttered their stages, the theatre company The Show Must Go Online (TSMGO) forged its way into a new frontier: the highly accessible digital landscape of online performance. In this book, TSMGO creator Robert Myles and Valerie Clayman Pye explore the success of TSMGO from a practical standpoint, offering insights and strategies that can help theatremakers at every level respond proactively to the future of Theatre in the digital era. Each chapter addresses a different aspect of the creative process and concludes with take-homes so readers can learn how to innovate rapidly, undertake research and development in order to create their own models, and cultivate their own theatrical communities. Written for theatremakers, directors, producers, and creatives of all levels of experience, this book will help readers to think critically and creatively about theatre and theatre pedagogues to understand how to train their students for the theatre of the future.
Download or read book Property Rights Indigenous People and the Developing World written by David Lea and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work offers an analysis of the Western formal system of private property and its moral justification and explains the relevance of the institution to particular current issues that face aboriginal peoples and the developing world. The subjects under study include broadly: aboriginal land claims; third world development; intellectual property rights and the relatively recent TRIPs agreement (Trade related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights). Within these broad areas we highlight the following concerns: the maintenance of cultural integrity; group autonomy; economic benefit; access to health care; biodiversity; biopiracy and even the independence of the recently emerged third world nation states. Despite certain apparent advantages from embracing the Western institution of private ownership, the text explains that the Western institution of private property is undergoing a fundamental redefinition through the expansion.
Download or read book Cuban American Political Culture and Civic Organizing written by Robert M. Ceresa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-21 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies civic organizations in Miami’s Cuban community. Few places in the United States have been transformed by immigration the way Miami has been transformed by Cuban exiles. Cuban civic organizations help to explain why this is the case. Civic organizations are the heart of the story of the social and political power and influence of Miami’s Cuban community. This community is home to a broad tradition of active political participation and many civic organizations. The sheer number of organizations suggests they have something to do with the community’s considerable vibrancy and civic capacity. How do the organizations work? How have they managed to be so successful over so many years? What can be learned about successful civic organizing from their experience? How will changing United States-Cuba relations impact Cuban civic organizations, and, in turn, broader Miami? These are questions this book helps to answer.
Download or read book Minzu as Technology written by Lei Hao and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a unique ethnographic approach to the understanding of ethnogenesis in the Chinese context, with a particular focus on how it is being reshaped in the post-2000s era. It reinterprets the Chinese concept of ethnicity, or minzu, by investigating its evolution in relation to the proliferation of media technologies. In an era characterized by digital connectivity, the quest for ethnic identity has taken on new dimensions. Ethnic groups, like the Sibe community from Xinjiang, are now extending beyond the state’s traditional interpretations of minzu. Leveraging the power of media technology, they are articulating and expressing their ethnic identities in new and personalised ways. These developments have led to the emergence of what this book terms ‘networked ethnicity,’ a fresh manifestation of ethnic identity formation in the era of social media. The pivotal question this book attempts to answer is: How does an ethnic group in China today understand its identity, and what role does technology and media play in that process? This exploration offers a critical perspective on the complex interplay between digital technology, individual agency, and ethnic identity formation. This study will be of interest to scholars of cultural studies, Chinese society, ethnic studies, and media studies, or anyone keen to understand the changing landscape of ethnic identity in the digital age.
