Languages : en
Pages : 387
Book Description
A young woman wants more in life than is being offered as she reaches maturity. Always daring, outspoken and adventurous, she dreams of life beyond her neighborhood and the people she grew up with. The late 1950s and early 1960s rarely offered opportunities to women wishing to reach out and grab a piece of life. Even something as simple as traveling from one state to another, required that they be either chaperoned by a man, or herded into a group like cows. Funny, painful, and at times, incredible, you will find yourself travelling with her, as she makes an escape from a boring switchboard operator's job at a neighborhood bank, to travel for 24 years around the world

I'm Still Here

Publisher: Convergent Books
ISBN: 1524760854
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK • From a leading voice on racial justice, an eye-opening account of growing up Black, Christian, and female that exposes how white America’s love affair with “diversity” so often falls short of its ideals. “Austin Channing Brown introduces herself as a master memoirist. This book will break open hearts and minds.”—Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Untamed Austin Channing Brown’s first encounter with a racialized America came at age seven, when she discovered her parents named her Austin to deceive future employers into thinking she was a white man. Growing up in majority-white schools and churches, Austin writes, “I had to learn what it means to love blackness,” a journey that led to a lifetime spent navigating America’s racial divide as a writer, speaker, and expert helping organizations practice genuine inclusion. In a time when nearly every institution (schools, churches, universities, businesses) claims to value diversity in its mission statement, Austin writes in breathtaking detail about her journey to self-worth and the pitfalls that kill our attempts at racial justice. Her stories bear witness to the complexity of America’s social fabric—from Black Cleveland neighborhoods to private schools in the middle-class suburbs, from prison walls to the boardrooms at majority-white organizations. For readers who have engaged with America’s legacy on race through the writing of Ta-Nehisi Coates and Michael Eric Dyson, I’m Still Here is an illuminating look at how white, middle-class, Evangelicalism has participated in an era of rising racial hostility, inviting the reader to confront apathy, recognize God’s ongoing work in the world, and discover how blackness—if we let it—can save us all.
