Book excerpt: Across the country there are about sixty elite high school wrestlers that are recruited to compete at top ten NCAA Division 1 wrestling programs per year. It is a far smaller number of those athletes who pursue a second sport. There is only one who has also earned a scholarship to play football at The University of Michigan - as a 5'6 running back. Mike Milano had reached this impossible dream. First carry, in front of 111,000 Michigan fans - six yards. Twelve months later he sat helplessly as his name rolled across the ESPN ticker: Michigan running back, Mike Milano, Charged with a Felony - Indefinitely suspended from the Michigan Football Team. He faced up to ten years in prison. The dream world he was living in had disappeared. At the same time, Michigan football was also going through a transition, one that was equally disastrous. In the brutally honest and gripping MICHIGAN MEN?, Mike tells us about that transition from behind the closed doors of Schembechler Hall, and the impact it had on his life.About the Author: Mike Milano grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and currently lives in New Orleans, Louisiana, where he teaches third grade as a part of the 2011 Teach For America Corps. He hopes that by writing his story, readers will understand the impact that one person can have on another person's life, and the importance of actively pursuing a life in which we make an effort to help each other.

Book Men to Avoid in Art and Life

Download or read book Men to Avoid in Art and Life written by Nicole Tersigni and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men to Avoid in Art and Life pairs classical fine art with modern captions that epitomize the spirit of mansplaining. This hilarious book perfectly captures those relatable moments when a man explains to a woman a subject about which he knows considerably less than she does. Situations include men sharing keen insight on the female anatomy, an eloquent defense of catcalling, or offering sage advice about horseback riding to the woman who owns the horse. • These less qualified men of antiquity dish out mediocrity as if it's pure genius • For the women who have endured overbearing men over the centuries • Written with hilariously painful accuracy "Now, when you're riding a horse, you need to make sure to keep a good grip on the reins." "These are my horses." Through cringe-induced empathy, this timeless gift book of shared experiences unites women across history in one of the most powerful forms of resistance: laughter. • Started as a Twitter thread and quickly gained widespread popularity. • Makes a perfect book for women and feminists with a wry sense of humor, millennials, anyone who loves memes and Internet humor, as well as history and art buffs. • You'll love this book if you love books like Men Explain Things to Me by Rebecca Solnit, Milk and Vine: Inspirational Quotes from Classic Vines by Emily Beck, and Awards For Good Boys: Tales Of Dating, Double Standards, And Doom by Shelby Lorman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WITH A FOREWORD BY LISA M. FINE, MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY—Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is known for its natural beauty and severe winters, as well as the mines and forests where men labored to feed industrial factories elsewhere in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. But there were factories in the Upper Peninsula, too, and women who worked in them. Phyllis Michael Wong tells the stories of the Gossard Girls, women who sewed corsets and bras at factories in Ishpeming and Gwinn from the early twentieth century to the 1970s. As the Upper Peninsula’s mines became increasingly exhausted and its stands of timber further depleted, the Gossard Girls’ income sustained both their families and the local economy. During this time the workers showed their political and economic strength, including a successful four-month strike in the 1940s that capped an eight-year struggle to unionize. Drawing on dozens of interviews with the surviving workers and their families, this book highlights the daily challenges and joys of these mostly first- and second-generation immigrant women. It also illuminates the way the Gossard Girls navigated shifting ideas of what single and married women could and should do as workers and citizens. From cutting cloth and distributing materials to getting paid and having fun, Wong gives us a rare ground-level view of piecework in a clothing factory from the women on the sewing room floor.
