"Brown Skin, Curly Hair, I Love Being Me", is written as a poem to uplift children who experience the pressures of a society that promotes a specific standard of beauty that isn't always relatable. This book was inspired by my niece who has gracefully navigated through her grade school years embracing her culture while developing into a talented musician, athlete, and dancer. The story is centered around a Nigerian girl who expresses the love and pride she has for her rich African culture from her dad and grandma's side and her African-American culture from her mom and Nana. Learning that these give her the rich heritage and spirit she naturally embodies. By exploring their languages (Yoruba and English) and connecting with her ancestors, she realizes she can be whatever she dreams and believes because of who she already is.

Winner of the Shaughnessy Cohen Prize for Political Writing Finalist for the Governor General’s Literary Award for Non-fiction and the Trillium Book Award A Globe and Mail, National Post, Toronto Life, Walrus, CBC Books, Chatelaine, Hill Times, 49th Shelf and Writers’ Trust Best Book of the Year With the urgency and passion of Ta-Nehisi Coates (Between the World and Me), the seductive storytelling of J.D. Vance (Hillbilly Elegy) and the historical rigour of Carol Anderson (White Rage), Kamal Al-Solaylee explores the in-between space that brown people occupy in today’s world: on the cusp of whiteness and the edge of blackness. Brown proposes a cohesive racial identity and politics for the millions of people from the Global South and provides a timely context for the frictions and anxieties around immigration and multiculturalism that have led to the rise of populist movements in Europe and the election of Donald Trump. At once personal and global, Brown is packed with storytelling and on-the-street reporting conducted over two years in ten countries on four continents that reveals a multitude of lives and stories from destinations as far apart as the United Arab Emirates, the Philippines, the United States, Britain, Trinidad, France, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka, Qatar and Canada. It features striking research about the emergence of brown as the colour of cheap labor and the pursuit of a lighter skin tone as a global status symbol. As he studies the significance of brown skin for people from North Africa and the Middle East, Mexico and Central America, and South and East Asia, Al-Solaylee also reflects on his own identity and experiences as a brown-skinned person (in his case from Yemen) who grew up with images of whiteness as the only indicators of beauty and success. This is a daring and politically resonant work that challenges our assumptions about race, immigration and globalism and recounts the heartbreaking stories of the people caught in the middle.

The Glass Angel: A guide to freedom, peace, transformation and growth. Unlocking your Potential by Christina E Foxwell Pdf
Christina E. Foxwell’s life can be defined as a series of hardships, setbacks, and decisions made from fear or to meet the expectations others had of her. The daughter of a Pentecostal minister, the South African born author (Mother, wife, daughter, grandmother, business woman and Performance & Transformation coach) allowed other’s opinions of her, no matter how wrong or cruel, to define who she was as a young child, young woman, and ultimately, well into adulthood. Thus began a lifetime of self- doubt, shame, and self-sabotage. Often overlooked and underappreciated, she learned early on that her innermost thoughts and dreams and even her well-being weren’t of much importance to those around her. She was often ridiculed for her thoughts and perceived “bad” behavior. She had to cope with name calling, cruel taunts, and scorn for even minor infractions, or for no reason at all. In time, Christina did what so many in her situation would’ve done. She donned a proverbial shield of armor to protect herself from pain, just to get through day-to-day life and have some semblance of a life, even if it wasn’t of her own design. How she saw herself was shaped by what others said about her and how they treated her. The Glass Angel details the years she lived under the weight of those unfounded and incredibly harmful notions. This book is part memoir, part cautionary tale, part inspirational how-to for anyone who has ever felt like the world was against them. In it, she shares her journey from the darkest moments of her life to finding herself, learning to forgive the past and seek light and clarity and let them lead the way forward. Her story will open your eyes and mind to what’s possible. It proves that even when you are at your absolute lowest and fear you’ll never find your way out of despair, shame, or a lifetime of guilt, there is hope on the other side. While there are many reasons for her to feel sorry for herself, she chose another path – one that helped her heal from the trauma and discover who she was and what she had to do to feel comfortable in her skin and heal from all the things that weighed her down for years. She found a path forward. She made a pact with herself to stop living the life of a ‘broken angel’ and embrace what she calls her alchemy. That’s how this book came to be. It’s her way of helping others who’ve known pain and made it to the other side. She is giving readers permission to not only survive but thrive by igniting their own alchemy and using it to transform their lives from the inside out.
