The Mis-Education of Joy by Paul C. Agard Pdf

The Mis-education of Joy is the story of three lives that intersect one semester in a college classroom and as a result these lives are profoundly changed forever. Joy Hunter is an enthusiastic young girl who shares her faith with everyone. At seventeen, she has always depended on her religious faith to overcome her many obstacles. One of which is a childhood illness that threatened her with no more than fifteen years of life. Upon graduating high school, and being accepted to a local college, Joy for the first time is hopeful about her future. At college, she meets Jim Byrnes, a history professor with a clouded past and a deep rooted contempt for religion. The classroom explodes as Professor Byrnes is challenged by a student named Paul, who the class has labeled "the fanatic," and Joy's faith is put to a new test. Fearing her "light" is growing dim because of her doubt, Joy finds herself searching for answers; but who will she turn to and where is the unseen hand of God that watched over her for 17 years? As Joy, Professor Brynes and Paul seek to separate fact from fiction, they each encounter grace. Told in traditional dialogue form, The Mis-education of Joy is a heartwarming tale that explores the rightsof the believer in a secular society, while showing the role of the believer in a secular society. An insightful story that dares to expose the religious intolerance of our nation; but yet is powerful enough to touch your heart. Highly recommended. -Rev. Dr. Walter L. Davis III It is a true page turner that reminds us that faith persists not because we will it; but because it has a presence and force all of its own. The Miseducation of Joy is long overdue. -Gaelle Affiany, Graduate Student Critics will be challenged and Christians will be encouraged to know that the Word of God is believable and trustworthy. -Myra Rosa, High School Science Teacher

The Miseducation of Women by James Tooley Pdf

Girls and boys are different. So why do our schools insist on treating them as identical? Could this misguided equality have anything to do with the increasing dissatisfaction among women that is revealed in survey after survey? Do gender-blind educational policies in fact work to women's disadvantage? Bringing together many women's voices, from Bridget Jones to Simone de Beauvoir, Betty Friedan to Germaine Greer, James Tooley challenges education's sacred cows, demanding a radical rethinking of sexual politics and a fairer way forward for women. The Miseducation of Women landed like a bombshell when it was published in England a few months ago; but Mr. Tooley's book, replete with examples and anecdotes from the United States as well as Great Britain, has equal application to the gender arguments on this side of the Atlantic.

The Mis-Education of Ruth by Charrisa T Pdf

Ruth faced a lot of adversity in her life but God's grace is so sufficient. Even after adversity, she was able to get up from that place and receive all that God had for her. The main purpose for this book is to help women understand their true identity. We are not our faults. We are not our past. We are not our flaws. We are not the side of the tracks we come from. We are not what hurt us. We are not what or who left us. We are children of the Most High God. We are who God created us to be. Fear, doubt, our past, flaws, or mistakes can not hinder the blessings that are already assigned to us. We are women with every day struggles walking forward to our destiny. Since our father is a King we are Queens who wear our crowns with dignity and grace. We know that we are because he is. We are Ruth. Readjusting our crowns after adversity and walking on purpose. This is not just a statement. This is a movement. I am Ruth!

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Hip Hop Pedagogy by Lauren Leigh Kelly,Daren Graves Pdf

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Hip Hop Pedagogy is the first reference work to cover the theory, history, research methodologies, and practice of Hip Hop pedagogy. Including 20 chapters from activist-oriented and community engaged scholars, the handbook provides perspectives and studies from across the world, including Brazil, the Caribbean, Scandinavia, and the USA. Organized into four topical sections focusing on the history and cultural roots of Hip Hop; theories and research methods in Hip Hop pedagogy; and Hip Hop pedagogy in practice, the handbook offers theoretical, analytical, and pedagogical insights emerging across sociology, literacy, school counselling and youth organizing. The chapters reflect the impact of critical Hip Hop pedagogies and Hip Hop-based research for educators and scholars interested in radical, transformative approaches to education. Ultimately, the many voices included in the handbook show that Hip Hop pedagogy is a humanizing and emancipatory approach which is redefining the purposes and practices of education.

The Challenge of Blackness by Derrick E. White Pdf

The Challenge of Blackness examines the history and legacy of the Institute of the Black World (IBW), one of the most important Black Freedom Struggle organizations to emerge in the aftermath of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. A think tank based in Atlanta, the IBW sought to answer King's question "Where do we go from here?" Its solution was to organize a broad array of leading Black activists, scholars, and intellectuals to find ways to combine the emerging academic discipline of Black Studies with the Black political agenda. Throughout the 1970s, debates over race and class in the Unites States grew increasingly hostile, and the IBW's approach was ultimately unable to challenge the growing conservatism. By using the IBW as the lens through which to view these turbulent years, Derrick White provides an exciting new interpretation of the immediate post-civil rights years in America.

The Campus Color Line by Eddie R. Cole Pdf

"A stunning and ambitious origins story."—Ibram X. Kendi, National Book Award–winning and #1 New York Times–bestselling author The remarkable history of how college presidents shaped the struggle for racial equality Some of America’s most pressing civil rights issues—desegregation, equal educational and employment opportunities, housing discrimination, and free speech—have been closely intertwined with higher education institutions. Although it is commonly known that college students and other activists, as well as politicians, actively participated in the fight for and against civil rights in the middle decades of the twentieth century, historical accounts have not adequately focused on the roles that the nation’s college presidents played in the debates concerning racism. Based on archival research conducted at a range of colleges and universities across the United States, The Campus Color Line sheds light on the important place of college presidents in the struggle for racial parity. Focusing on the period between 1948 and 1968, Eddie Cole shows how college presidents, during a time of violence and unrest, strategically, yet often silently, initiated and shaped racial policies and practices inside and outside of the educational sphere. With courage and hope, as well as malice and cruelty, college presidents positioned themselves—sometimes precariously—amid conflicting interests and demands. Black college presidents challenged racist policies as their students demonstrated in the streets against segregation, while presidents of major universities lobbied for urban renewal programs that displaced Black communities near campus. Some presidents amended campus speech practices to accommodate white supremacist speakers, even as other academic leaders developed the nation’s first affirmative action programs in higher education. The Campus Color Line illuminates how the legacy of academic leaders’ actions continues to influence the unfinished struggle for Black freedom and racial equity in education and beyond.
