Book excerpt: Set in the neighbourhood of “Little Jamaica,” Frying Plantain follows a girl from elementary school to high school graduation as she navigates the tensions between mothers and daughters, second-generation immigrants experiencing first-generation cultural expectations, and Black identity in a predominantly white society. Kara Davis is a girl caught in the middle — of her North American identity and her desire to be a “true” Jamaican, of her mother and grandmother’s rages and life lessons, of having to avoid being thought of as too “faas” or too “quiet” or too “bold” or too “soft.” In these twelve interconnected stories, we see Kara on a visit to Jamaica, startled by the sight of a severed pig’s head in her great-aunt’s freezer; in junior high, the victim of a devastating prank by her closest friends; and as a teenager in and out of her grandmother’s house, trying to cope with ongoing battles of unyielding authority. A rich and unforgettable portrait of growing up between worlds, Frying Plantain shows how, in one charged moment, friendship and love can turn to enmity and hate, well-meaning protection can become control, and teasing play can turn to something much darker.

Download or read book The University of Toronto written by Martin L. Friedland and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 825 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The University of Toronto is Canada’s leading university and one of Canada’s most important cultural and scientific institutions. In this history of the University from its origin as King’s College in 1827 to the present, Martin Friedland brings personalities, events, and changing visions and ideas into a remarkable synthesis. His scholarly yet highly readable account presents colourful presidents, professors, and students, notable intellectual figures from Daniel Wilson to Northrop Frye and Marshall McLuhan, and dramatic turning points such as the admission of women in the 1880s, the University College fire of 1890, the discovery of insulin, involvement in the two world wars, the student protests of the 1960s, and the successful renewal of the 1980s and 1990s. Friedland draws on archival records, private diaries, oral interviews, and a vast body of secondary literature. He draws also on his own experience of the University as a student in the 1950s and, later, as a faculty member and dean of law who played a part in some of the critical developments he unfolds. The history of the University of Toronto as recounted by Friedland is intimately connected with events outside the University. The transition in Canadian society, for example, from early dependence on Great Britain and fear of the United States to the present dominance of American culture and ideas is mirrored in the University. There too can be seen the effects of the two world wars, the cold war, and the Vietnam war. As Canadian society and culture have developed and changed, so too has the University. The history of the University in a sense is the history of Canada.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empire’s Tracks boldly reframes the history of the transcontinental railroad from the perspectives of the Cheyenne, Lakota, and Pawnee Native American tribes, and the Chinese migrants who toiled on its path. In this meticulously researched book, Manu Karuka situates the railroad within the violent global histories of colonialism and capitalism. Through an examination of legislative, military, and business records, Karuka deftly explains the imperial foundations of U.S. political economy. Tracing the shared paths of Indigenous and Asian American histories, this multisited interdisciplinary study connects military occupation to exclusionary border policies, a linked chain spanning the heart of U.S. imperialism. This highly original and beautifully wrought book unveils how the transcontinental railroad laid the tracks of the U.S. Empire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The University of Toronto and Its Colleges: 1827-1906 The Province of Upper Canada was founded under the Constitutional Act of 1791. During the preceding seven or eight years a United Empire Loyalist population had been settling on the banks of the St. Lawrence, on the shores of the Bay of Quinte, in the Niagara Peninsula, and on the coast of Lake Erie. When the government of the Province was organized its population numbered sixty-five thousand. The first governor of the new province was Col. John Graves Simcoe, who had been a conspicuous leader of the Loyalist volunteers during the Revolutionary War. His early life and education were those of an English country gentleman of the eighteenth century, and his ideas and tastes corresponded to the age and the environment of his youth. He looked forward to the development, in the new province, of the same social conditions as existed in the old land; and, accordingly, in taking thought for the well-being of the young colony, proposed to himself that provision should be made out of the public funds for the maintenance of religion and the promotion of higher education. This religion was to be Protestant, as that of the adjoining province of Lower Canada was Roman Catholic; but instead of tithes collected from the people, its support was to be furnished from one-seventh of the lands of the country. From the public lands also was to be derived a fund for the education, especially of "the more respectable class of people by the erection of free grammar schools, and in course of time of a college or university." In these views the Imperial Government readily concurred. As the Province was surveyed, every seventh lot of land in each township was set apart for "the support of the Protestant clergy." The educational part of Simcoe's programme was not carried into effect until after his departure from the country.
