The Xenosphere
Author: Clive Alando Taylor
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1665591048
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 89
Book Description
The Xenosphere is a fictional and theoretical story, a timeline, based upon the accounts and the narrative, behind a series of personal testimonies and private conversations, collated together, to give an overall picture of the mundane destabilising thought patterns of unwarranted intrusions and sometimes unexplained random and volatile emotions, exacerbating the grief and the sensitivities of the empathetic mind. When Driscol Davenport decides that he wants to end his life, somewhat prematurely, albeit through the assisted means of euthanasia, little does he know or even understand the consequences and the repercussions of what such unpredictable actions will have upon himself, and even those around him, and especially upon that of his long term partner and girlfriend Lucy Hemingway.

White Fragility
Author: Dr. Robin DiAngelo
Publisher: Beacon Press
ISBN: 0807047422
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
The New York Times best-selling book exploring the counterproductive reactions white people have when their assumptions about race are challenged, and how these reactions maintain racial inequality. In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to ‘bad people’ (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves that white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt, and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent any meaningful cross-racial dialogue. In this in-depth exploration, DiAngelo examines how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, and what we can do to engage more constructively.

Before the End, After the Beginning
Author: Dagoberto Gilb
Publisher: Open Road + Grove/Atlantic
ISBN: 0802195075
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Ten “stark, realistic” short stories from the PEN/Hemingway Award–winning author ‘told in mostly gritty matter-of-fact prose” (The Boston Globe). Dagoberto Gilb wrote most of the stories in Before the End, After the Beginning while he recovered from a stroke he suffered in 2009. The result is a powerful and triumphant volume that tackles common themes of identity, mortality, and the physical limitations which arose during his own illness. Taking readers throughout the American West and Southwest, from Los Angeles and Albuquerque to El Paso and Austin, these ten stories cover territory close to Gilb’s heart—a mother and son’s relationship in Southern California in the story ‘Uncle Rock’ or a man looking to shed his chaotic past in ‘The Last Time I Saw Junior’—while describing the American experience in his raw, inimitable style. With this new collection, Gilb offers what may be his most extraordinary achievement to date with “an authenticity that’s unimpeachable” (San Antonio Express News).
