Book excerpt: From Essence bestselling author Kayla Perrin comes the compelling story of three generations of African-American women---of their deepest secrets and most cherished lies. The Grayson family is a pillar of the African-American community in New Orleans. But Sylvia Grayson, the matriarch, has deep secrets that she conceals beneath a veneer of propriety. She keeps a tight rein on her daughter, Olivia, and has the perfect life mapped out for her: go to college, join the Delta sorority, and marry the proper boy. After the town's "bad girl" is found murdered one summer day in 1975, Sylvia pulls Olivia even closer. But when Olivia's one last attempt at rebellion is subverted by her mother, Sylvia's relentlessly tight hold shatters the ties between them. Years later, Olivia's own daughter, Rachelle, is trying to make her way in the world. Olivia does not want to make the same mistakes as her mother, nor does she want her daughter to repeat the errors Olivia made out of rebellion. Meanwhile, a killer is watching from the shadows, determined to bring the secrets of the past to light. The Delta Sisters is a gripping, intimate portrait of what happens when these passionate women have to band together at last in the face of danger.

Download or read book Brothers and Sisters written by Craig LaRon Torbenson and published by Associated University Presse. This book was released on 2009 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1950s are arguably the watershed era in the civil rights movement with the landmark Supreme Court decision of Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955, and the desegregation of Little Rock (Arkansas) High School in 1957. It was during this period--1955 to be exact--that sociologist Alfred M. Lee published his seminal work Fraternities without Brotherhood: A Study of Prejudice on the American Campus. Lee's book was the first and last book to explore diversity within college fraternal groups. More than fifty years later, Craig L. Torbenson and Gregory S. Parks revisit this issue more broadly in their edited volume Brothers and Sisters: Diversity in College Fraternities and Sororities. This volume draws from a variety of disciplines in an attempt to provide a holistic analysis of diversity within collegiate fraternal life. It also brings a wide range of scholarly approaches to the inquiry of diversity within college fraternities and sororities. It explores not only from whence these groups have come but where they are currently situated and what issues arise as they progress.

Download or read book Inside Greek U written by Alan D. DeSantis and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2007-10-12 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the potentially damaging influence of fraternities and sororities—and how a new approach could transform Greek life. Popular films such as Revenge of the Nerds and Old School portray college Greek organizations as a training ground for malevolent young aristocrats, yet they fail to depict the enduring influence of these organizations. Inside Greek U. provides an in-depth analysis of how fraternities and sororities bolster damaging definitions of gender and sexuality, negatively impacting the lives of their members. Using evidence gathered in hundreds of focus groups and personal interviews, as well as his years of experience as a faculty advisor to Greek organizations, Alan D. DeSantis examines the limited gender roles available to Greeks: “real men” are unemotional, sexually promiscuous, and violent; “nice girls,” are nurturing, domestic, and pure. These rigid formulations often lead to destructive attitudes and behaviors, such as eating disorders, date rape, sexual misconduct, and homophobia. They also impede students' intellectual and emotional development long after graduation. While many students choose Greek life in search of positive social engagement, the current culture can be profoundly damaging. Inside Greek U. demonstrates how, with a new approach, fraternities and sororities could serve as an enriching influence on individuals and campus life.
