Book excerpt: With the novelistic verve that helped make "All Our Kin "a beloved, classic work, Carol Stack tells the story of a little-known yet compelling reverse exodus--of half a million black Americans in the cities of the North, who heard a call to return home to the rural South. Skillfully evoking the terrain of Carolina towns she calls Burdy's Bend, New Jericho, and Rosedale, Stack interweaves a powerful human story with a larger economic and social analysis of migration, families, and poverty. "Call to Home" offers a rare glimpse of African-American communities pulling together, determined to make it in today's America.

Book excerpt: What is appropriate? Do I act like I never saw the letters and put them back in with her things? Do I show them to my dad and ask him what is appropriate to do with them? out of respect for mom and out of respect for those of us who survive her because they could have just as easily fallen into anyone elses possession, I will share with you these letters. -S. Cunningham, Chapter 23: Dear Diary Due to various circumstances, she may become overwhelmed by many responsibilities which she feels before God she must be able to meet. She doesnt want to complain, because she wants to be totally surrendered to Gods will and respectful of her husbands leadership. If her husband does not sense the pressure his wife is under, and if she feels this is all Gods will, then she has NO OUT. This can lead in extreme circumstances to mental disorders (temporary or permanent) or suicide. -Carol Cunningham, Chapter 9: Dear Tim Maybe Im insane and irrational in an attempt to explain my mothers death, but to me it makes more sense now. Now that I read moms writing what she really felt. I read these letters and for the first time see her as more than a mother, but as a person with weaknesses and struggles like anyone else. -S. Cunningham, Chapter 23: Dear Diary
Download or read book Village Ethnoarchaeology written by Carol Kramer and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Village Ethnoarchaeology: Rural Iran in Archaeological Perspective discusses selected tangible features of the subject area, noting the differences in households and associated material culture. The book comments among settlement variability, the complexities in relationships among population density, settlement age, area, and function. The text also deals with material correlates of sociocultural behavior, spatial organization, architectural variability, regional patterns, and archaeological sampling strategies. The book presents a study based on three sets of contemporary data: (1) from an ethnographic fieldwork on Aliabad in summer 1975; (2) the census and cartographic documents published by the Iranian government; and (3) a corpus of published comparative ethnographic data. The book notes that among the households in Aliabad, which is neither economically stratified nor markedly heterogeneous, economic variations exist. The text suggests that that material diversity and systems involving socioeconomic differentiation can have substantial time depth in this part of the world. The book can prove beneficial for archaeologists, anthropologist, sociologists, and researchers interested in ethnographic accounts of Middle Eastern communities.

Download or read book I Give You Half the Road written by Carol Spindel and published by University of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ivory Coast, the farewell “I give you half the road” is an expression of hospitality, urging a departing guest to come back again. After their first stay in a welcoming rural community in 1981, Carol Spindel and her husband did just that. Over the course of decades, they built a house and returned frequently, deepening their relationships with neighbors. Once considered the most stable country in West Africa, Ivory Coast was split by an armed rebellion in 2002 and endured a decade of instability and a violent conflict. Spindel provides an intimate glimpse into this turbulent period by weaving together the daily lives and paths of five neighbors. Their stories reveal Ivorians determined to reunite a divided country through reliance on mutual respect and obligation even while power-hungry politicians pursued xenophobic and anti-immigrant platforms for personal gain. Illuminating democracy as a fragile enterprise that must be continually invented and reinvented, I Give You Half the Road emphasizes the importance of connection, generosity, and forgiveness.

Download or read book Love in America written by Francesca M. Cancian and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1990-08-31 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last twenty-five years, Americans have gained considerable freedom in thier personal lives. Relationships are now more flexible, and self-development has become a primary goal for both men and women. Most scholars have criticized this trend to greater freedom, arguing that it undermines family bonds and promotes selfishness and extreme independence, Francesca Cancian is more optimistic. In this book she shows that many American couples succeed in combining self-development with commitment, and that interdependence, not independence, is their ideal. In interdependent relationships, love and self-development do not conflict, but reinforce each other. Love in America compares 'traditional' forms of marriage with these newer forms of close relationships. Starting with the nineteenth century, Cancian shows how gender roles became polarized, with love, which was identified with emotional expression, no practical help, being the responsibility of women, while self-development was regarded as a masculine concern. These traditional images of love and relationships are still held by many Americans today, even though, as Cancian points out, this can lead to marital conflict and individual stress and illness. By contrast, new images of love, emphasizing self-development for men and women and flexible, androgynous roles, began to emerge around 1900, accelerating in the 1960s. She concludes that this trend to self-development and androgyny will continue, but that whether it will lead to more interdependent relationships, or to more independence and isolation, depends partly on economic and political changes in the wider society. The evidence for Cancian's argument comes from sociological, historical, and psychological sources. Her book will interest readers in these disciplines, as well s appeal to a wide general audience.
