Download or read book Magdaragat written by Jim Agapito and published by Cormorant Books. This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since first arriving in Canada, the Filipino community has contributed invaluably — and too often invisibly — to the fabric of Canadian society. In this anthology of Filipino-Canadian writing, Magdaragat explores the diverse intricacies of this growing yet underrepresented people, continuing the vital work of recognizing and celebrating their cultural contributions. Writers in this anthology, hailing from across Turtle Island, each provide their singular yet universally resonating insights through stories of new homes and old homelands, of untangling internalized racism and championing solidarity, of the chasms within intergenerational households and the work of repairing them, and more. Poems, essays, short fiction, plays, and speeches — their works collected here showcase a wide breadth of Filipino-Canadian experience. Through stories of sacrifice, violence, and discrimination interspersed with stories of success, recovery, and solidarity, Magdaragat delves into Filipino-Canadian history, the joys and struggles of its present, and the hopes and aspirations for the future.

And as she uncovers long-buried secrets of love, money, betrayal, and murder, the facts begin to implicate those she most wants to trustuand her visions reveal an evil closer than she could have imagined."

Download or read book Speaking Out of Turn written by Stephanie Sparling Williams and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speaking Out of Turn is the first monograph dedicated to the forty-year oeuvre of feminist conceptual artist Lorraine O’Grady. Examining O’Grady’s use of language, both written and spoken, Stephanie Sparling Williams charts the artist’s strategic use of direct address—the dialectic posture her art takes in relationship to its viewers—to trouble the field of vision and claim a voice in the late 1970s through the 1990s, when her voice was seen as “out of turn” in the art world. Speaking Out of Turn situates O’Grady’s significant contributions within the history of American conceptualism and performance art while also attending to the work’s heightened visibility in the contemporary moment, revealing both the marginalization of O’Grady in the past and an urgent need to revisit her art in the present.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who's it going to be? Spencer's the smart kid. Shelly's the diva. Miranda's the scaredy-cat. Matthew's just average (so far). In fact, there's nothing about any of the nine middle-schoolers on Mrs. B's bus route that screams "fame." But before the end of the year, somebody on this bus is going to be famous. Every morning, their school bus waits at an empty bus stop. Nobody ever gets on. Nobody ever gets off. And Mrs. B refuses to answer questions about it.

But it will take all nine students to find out the truth, for each of them has a clue to the mystery that will change their lives forever. Award-winning author J.B. Cheaney's new middle grade novel weaves multiple points of view into one fascinating read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MEN GROW UP TO BE BOYS By Allan C. Stover Men are boys until you bury em. . . . Rowena, in the movie Decoration Day. Men take a long time to grow up. When they finally do, life gets infinitely more complicated and a lot less fun . . . . Uncle Sammy (mumbled to Tanya Tata in Hummer's Topless Bar). Men Grow Up to Be Boys is a novel of both comedy and tragedy in the life of Roger Murphy, who just may grow up and find out what is important in life. Imagine Holden Caulfields tragicomic life in Catcher in the Rye spread across a messy childhood, messier teens, and even messier adulthood. Add scheming Sammy Glick as his best friend and an untamed shrew as his first love and wife. End it with a slima very slimchance at happiness, success, and true love with an angel. Roger Murphy begins life with everything against him. His parents divorce when he is a child. His embittered mother accuses his father of molesting him, which makes his life a living hell when everyone in the neighborhood finds out about it. His mother never admits to anyone that shed made up the molestation story after prodding from her divorce lawyer. Roger pleads with her to tell his friends parents that nothing had happened, but she refuses. I want everyone to know how rotten he is, she told him. Im glad everyone thinks that bastard is a monster. Mom, its making things so hard for me, he pleads. No one can play with me without getting into trouble. Please tell them nothing happened. Please. She doesnt listen. She looks out the window and smiles. Do you know he cant come into the neighborhood? The men here would beat him to a pulp. Thats why he has to meet you in the park. Serves the bastard right. She told everyone shed dropped the charges only to spare Roger the trauma of testifying. She even begins to believe her story. It would all complicate Rogers life for a long, long time. Rogers best friend, Bob, might dominate him, but Roger has no one else who cares. His secret love, Madge, loves Bob and acts as though Roger doesnt even exist on this planet. From there, Rogers life goes downhill over a lot of rough road. The book gets funny even when life gets serious. In Chapter 1, Bob, Madge, and Roger play show me yours and Ill show you mine. When its Bobs turn, he says, Ive seen yours, so why show mine? and runs from the park. In Chapter 3, Bob and Roger play the Urinal Game to extort money from students. They drop a dime into the urinal then hide. When they hear water run, they know the student is washing off the dime because boys never wash their hands after they pee. (Some just lick their fingers.) They threaten to tell the other students that the boy stuck his hand in a urinal to get a lousy dime. For a quarter, theyll keep quiet. In Chapter 4, Roger has a chance of realizing his dream of owning a Schwinn, the Cadillac of bikes. Bob helps out by extorting raffle tickets from local store owners. In Chapter 5, when the school imposes a rule that all boys have to wear a tie every Friday. Roger and Bob form the Anti-Tie Society to fight repression and to guarantee freedom from stiflement. Roger, of course, does all the work. In Chapter 7, Rogers dad remarries an Ice Queen who hates the idea of her new husband having a son by another woman. Roger has to struggle to maintain a relationship. In Chapter 8, Roget and Bob go to the ocean to try to pick up some girls. Bob hooks them up with two girls in a scene that has Roger wondering why some guys can say anything to a girl, but guys like him cant say shit without creating an international incident. Every guy in the neighborhood wants to lose his virginity as soon as he can. After that, they still want to get laid, mainly to run up the score so they can brag to the other guys. Roger finally has his chance with Aggie Sue at a school dance in the gymnasium, where the bright lights and lingering scent of gym socks hardly create a romantic atmosphere. In Chapter 1
