Book Description
Winner of the 2020 Society of Professors of Education Outstanding Book Award Drawing on personal stories, research, and historical events, an esteemed educator offers a vision of educational justice inspired by the rebellious spirit and methods of abolitionists. Drawing on her life’s work of teaching and researching in urban schools, Bettina Love persuasively argues that educators must teach students about racial violence, oppression, and how to make sustainable change in their communities through radical civic initiatives and movements. She argues that the US educational system is maintained by and profits from the suffering of children of color. Instead of trying to repair a flawed system, educational reformers offer survival tactics in the forms of test-taking skills, acronyms, grit labs, and character education, which Love calls the educational survival complex. To dismantle the educational survival complex and to achieve educational freedom—not merely reform—teachers, parents, and community leaders must approach education with the imagination, determination, boldness, and urgency of an abolitionist. Following in the tradition of activists like Ella Baker, Bayard Rustin, and Fannie Lou Hamer, We Want to Do More Than Survive introduces an alternative to traditional modes of educational reform and expands our ideas of civic engagement and intersectional justice.

Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if she’d traveled too far, if there was still a way home. “Beautiful and propulsive . . .

Book Description
A revolutionary new educational model that encourages educators to provide spaces for students to display their academic brilliance without sacrificing their identities Building on the ideas introduced in his New York Times best-selling book, For White Folks Who Teach in the Hood, Christopher Emdin introduces an alternative educational model that will help students (and teachers) celebrate ratchet identity in the classroom. Ratchetdemic advocates for a new kind of student identity—one that bridges the seemingly disparate worlds of the ivory tower and the urban classroom. Because modern schooling often centers whiteness, Emdin argues, it dismisses ratchet identity (the embodying of “negative” characteristics associated with lowbrow culture, often thought to be possessed by people of a particular ethnic, racial, or socioeconomic status) as anti-intellectual and punishes young people for straying from these alleged “academic norms,” leaving young people in classrooms frustrated and uninspired. These deviations, Emdin explains, include so-called “disruptive behavior” and a celebration of hip-hop music and culture. Emdin argues that being “ratchetdemic,” or both ratchet and academic (like having rap battles about science, for example), can empower students to embrace themselves, their backgrounds, and their education as parts of a whole, not disparate identities. This means celebrating protest, disrupting the status quo, and reclaiming the genius of youth in the classroom.

Book Description
Dr. Schreiner's book, Learning to Love and Loving to Learn, is a breakthrough study dealing with relationships in the family, the immediate family, and the extended family. She teaches the need for a strong spiritual value system as the basis for learning to love and loving to learn. Dr. Schreiner touches on such subjects as appropriate discipline, positive encouragement, helping children to reach their full potential, and how to make learning an exciting adventure for all ages. She deals with relevant problems of the twenty-first century, including such issues as addictions, codependency, and the trap of instant gratification. She stresses the need for families to develop self-control and to set realistic limits. She teaches parents how to develop problem-solving skills in their children so they can live more effectively in our troubled times. The book opens the door for learning to be an exciting adventure as readers learn to love and to love learning. Spiritual growth comes from gaining new information and insight and using that knowledge in your everyday life. The author describes the spiritual principles that bring families closer as they learn about themselves and parents free themselves from effects of having been raised in an addictive, incestuous, or otherwise dysfunctional family. Examples of how children and adults of all ages learn are included in every chapter. The workbook, included at the end of the book, will help readers to identify the effects their parents' words and methods of disciplining and showing love has had on their own self-concept and automatic behaviors. Automatic behaviors are emotional and sometimes physical responses to situations and events that arise because the event unconsciously reminds the reader of a similar childhood happening. Sometimes automatic behaviors are positive and sometimes negative and unwanted. The workbook will help readers to look at and edit the source of their automatic behaviors thereby enabling them to change their undesirable responses.
