Book excerpt: Written as a letter from a Zimbabwean mother to her daughter, a student at Harvard, J. Nozipo Maraire evokes the moving story of a mother reaching out to her daughter to share the lessons life has taught her and bring the two closer than ever before. Interweaving history and memories, disappointments and dreams, Zenzele tells the tales of Zimbabwe's struggle for independence and the men and women who shaped it: Zenzele's father, an outspoken activist lawyer; her aunt, a schoolteacher by day and secret guerrilla fighter by night; and her cousin, a maid and a spy.

Download or read book Whose Story Is This written by Rebecca Solnit and published by Haymarket Books+ORM. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feminist essays for the #MeToo era from “the voice of the resistance,” the international bestselling author of Men Explain Things to Me (The New York Times Magazine). Who gets to shape the narrative of our times? The current moment is a battle royale over that foundational power, one in which women, people of color, non-straight people are telling other versions, and white people and men and particularly white men are trying to hang onto the old versions and their own centrality. In Whose Story Is This? Rebecca Solnit appraises what’s emerging and why it matters and what the obstacles are. Praise for Rebecca Solnit and her essays “Rebecca Solnit is essential feminist reading.” —The New Republic “In these times of political turbulence and an increasingly rabid and scrofulous commentariat, the sanity, wisdom and clarity of Rebecca Solnit’s writing is a forceful corrective. Whose Story Is This? is a scorchingly intelligent collection about the struggle to control narratives in the internet age.” —The Guardian “Solnit’s passionate, shrewd, and hopeful critiques are a road map for positive change.” —Kirkus Reviews “Solnit’s exquisite essays move between the political and the personal, the intellectual and the earthy.” —Elle “Rebecca Solnit reasserts herself here as one of the most astute cultural critics in progressive discourse.” —Publishers Weekly “No writer has better understood the mix of fear and possibility, peril and exuberance that’s marked this new millennium.” —Bill McKibben, founder of 350.org

Download or read book Writing in Coffee Shops written by Ryan Craig and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-28 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes someone a playwright? How do their identities and ideas interweave and co-exist? What permanent truths can we discern from examining existing texts? How can we write theatre that encapsulates the contemporary moment? How do we develop an idea from the embryonic impulse to a full and robust piece of theatre? In this fresh, lively and often very funny book, playwright Ryan Craig makes a case for the vitality of playwriting in our contemporary world and offers a way into writing those plays. From the very first moment of the process, as you sit in a coffee shop, staring at your 'laptop yawning open like some big, gormless mouth, the screen a flickering blank', to seeing your play staged and reviewed, the author takes you through the complete journey. Drawing on his own experience of writing for theatres such as the National, Hampstead and Tricycle and Menier Chocolate Factory, TV drama scripts for BBC, ITV and Channel Four, radio plays and adaptation, as well as commercial theatre, the author explores what practical tools the dramatist can use to write plays that build bridges between us. Full of practical advice for the aspiring - and practising - playwright, this book is also an important call-to-arms for playwrights everywhere, arguing for its necessity in the context of an increasingly fractured, distracted, disconnected world.
Download or read book Dr Ibrahim Abdurrahman Farajaj written by H. “Herukhuti” Sharif Williams and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a posthumous tribute to bisexual philosopher, theologian, AIDS-activist and educator, Shaykh Dr. Ibrahim Abdurrahman Farajajé (b. 1952; d. 2016) and contains scholarship, critical engagement, and creative responses that illustrate the significance of his life and work to queer theory, liberation theology, decoloniality, Islamic/Tasawwuf studies, sacred sexuality, religious responses to HIV/AIDS, and a counter-hegemonic understanding of our world. In addition to the work of his former colleagues, students, mentees, and those his work inspired, the collection contains Dr. Farajajé’s essays and speeches—many of which were not previously published. Because of the breadth and depth of its contents as a definitive text, this collection is a foundational guide to proceeding scholarship on Dr. Farajajé and his legacy. Born in Berkeley, CA, one of the earliest male students to graduate from Vassar College, Dr. Theol. magna cum laude from University of Bern, holder of a chair in the sociology of religion at Howard University during the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis, and provost of Starr King School for the Ministry, the premier hub for the academic and vocational exploration of multi-religious identity and practice, Dr. Farajajé lived the values advanced in his work through his choice of professional affiliations and modes of activism-scholarship. This book will be a key resource for scholars of queer theology and ethics, Islamic studies, cultural and social understandings of HIV/AIDS as well as religious studies and theology more generally. One of the chapters in this volume was originally published in the book titled, Male Lust: Pleasure, Power, and Transformation, edited by Kerwin Brook, Jill Nagle, Baruch Gould. Other chapters were originally published as a special issue of Journal of Bisexuality.
Download or read book God Is Not a White Man written by Chine McDonald and published by Hodder & Stoughton. This book was released on 2021-05-27 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ***Shortlisted for the 2023 Michael Ramsey Prize*** What does it mean when God is presented as male? What does it mean when - from our internal assumptions to our shared cultural imaginings - God is presented as white? These are the urgent questions Chine McDonald asks in a searing look at her experience of being a Black woman in the white-majority space that is the UK church - a church that is being abandoned by Black women no longer able to grin and bear its casual racism, colonialist narratives and lack of urgency on issues of racial justice. Part memoir, part social and theological commentary, God Is Not a White Man is a must-read for anyone troubled by a culture that insists everyone is equal in God's sight, yet fails to confront white supremacy; a lament about the state of race and faith, and a clarion call for us all to do better. 'This book is much-needed medicine for a sickness that we cannot ignore.' - The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry
Download or read book Investigations Into The Ubuntu Philosophy in Africa as a Response to Eurocentrism written by Ronald Magoba and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2024-02-15 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Philosophy - Miscellaneous, grade: 80%, Loyola College (Department of Philosophy), course: Philosophy, language: English, abstract: In the exploration of philosophical thought, African philosophy stands as a rich tapestry of cultural depth and intellectual inquiry, offering unique insights into the human experience. This thesis delves into the essence of African philosophical thought and its interaction with Eurocentric influences. Against the backdrop of Africa's diverse traditions and histories, this study seeks to understand the role of Ubuntu philosophy in shaping African identity amidst the challenges posed by Eurocentric ideologies. The introductory sections provide a foundation for the analysis, outlining the dissertation's structure and objectives. Beginning with an overview of African philosophy's tenets, nature, and historical development, the study examines fundamental principles such as the interconnectedness of individuals and communities, the importance of oral traditions, and the influence of societal structures on philosophical discourse. Subsequent chapters explore contemporary philosophical trends within Africa, highlighting diverse schools of thought that have emerged in response to external influences. From ethnophilosophy to hermeneutics, each school offers unique insights into Africa's philosophical landscape, reflecting the ongoing quest to reclaim indigenous wisdom and challenge Eurocentric hegemony. Central to the inquiry is an examination of Eurocentrism and its impact on African philosophy. Through an analysis of colonial legacies, racial biases, and epistemological paradigms, the study illuminates the ways in which Eurocentric ideologies have marginalized and distorted African intellectual traditions, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of Ubuntu philosophy as a potential response. At its core, the study interrogates Ubuntu philosophy and its transformative potential in the face of Eurocentric domination. Drawing on historical accounts, contemporary examples, and comparative analyses, it elucidates Ubuntu's core principles of interconnectedness, compassion, and communal solidarity, highlighting its universal relevance as a philosophy of human dignity and mutual respect.

Download or read book The Black Book What if Germany had won World War II A Chilling Glimpse into the Nazi Plans for Great Britain written by Mei Trow and published by Kings Road Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The terrible truth behind Nazi Germany's plans for Great Britain, after WWII In July 1940, Walter Schellenberg of the German Secret Service drew up a list of 2,694 people believed to be living in Britain, who were known enemies of the Reich. In that month, the Wehrmacht was poised across the Channel ready to hit Britain with blitzkrieg, the terrible and hugely successful tactic that had already overwhelmed Poland, Denmark, Norway, Holland, Luxembourg, Belgium and France. The names on Schellenberg's list represent the heart and soul of a nation that made the British what they were but the list also includes a diaspora from Europe - the intellectuals, politicians and writers who had been driven out of their own homelands by the speed of the German conquests. All human life is there - lives that were, to the Nazis, unworthy of life. Historians have found the list a curiosity. Surely, it cannot be real? It was. The Black Book is the first book to evaluate the list, and look at the chilling reality of what Hitler had in store for the nation.

Book excerpt: This book is a collection of essays in honour of Albert Nolan OP, who died in October 2022 at the age of 88.

From 1973-1980, he served as national chaplain for the National Catholic Federation of Students (NCFS) and also, until 1980, for the Catholic Students Association (CASA), which was formed in 1976 after black students began organising themselves into separate formations as Black Consciousness flourished. In 1977, Nolan was instrumental in establishing Young Christian Students movement (YCS) in South Africa.

The contributions deal with his family life, his time with the student movements, his life as Dominican, his periods as Dominican Provincial in Southern Africa, his involvement with the ANC, his work as a writer, a publisher of a journal and life in his later years. There are over 65 contributions, along with a Foreword by Timothy Radcliffe OP, a former Master General of the Dominicans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paradise Lost. A family uprooted twice. Originally from Mecca and tracing their lineage back to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), the aristocratic Al Gailani family settled along the banks of the Tigris River. Born in Baghdad, little Amel Al Gailani did not realize that her family’s patrician lifestyle would be subjected to untimely death, perfidy, and exile. When, during World War II, German assistance failed to arrive in time to assist the Iraqis in their struggle against British, the family was forced into exile, as Amel’s father was the Iraqi prime minister. Their home in Germany would not prove permanent either, and they were forced to leave again after the war. After spending months in concentration camps in Italy, Amel and her family were reunited with her father, who managed to escape to Saudi Arabia.
