Book Description
This bold, innovative book promises to radically alter our understanding of the Atlantic slave trade, and the depths of its horrors. Stephanie E. Smallwood offers a penetrating look at the process of enslavement from its African origins through the Middle Passage and into the American slave market. Saltwater Slavery is animated by deep research and gives us a graphic experience of the slave trade from the vantage point of the slaves themselves. The result is both a remarkable transatlantic view of the culture of enslavement, and a painful, intimate vision of the bloody, daily business of the slave trade.

Book Description
Drawing your spouse's friend closer to your family after marriage may be inimically detrimental. This is an explicitly written true life story of a young lady's encounter with a man who doubled as her male friend and secret admirer/lover. He had no gut to tell her because he got no reciprocal gesture but worked underground and remained remotely entangled with gross obsession. Unless you've gone through this book or you have a similar life experience or it has happened to someone around you, this story may appear like drawing a long bow. There are lots of lessons, and you will also find out that your kindness to your haters or unknown toxic rival(s) with envy or jealousy may not stop him/them from killing you, be it diabolically or any method available to him/them. The toxic male friend spent years castigating and inciting hatred and violence against the same couple who were his benefactors. He knew that what he was doing could lead to subversion of the lady's home, life, and everything, yet he had enthusiastically and rigorously done that and consistently or obstinately so for a decade. Some called him a "chameleon"; others tagged the ugly incident a "toxic male intruder escapade." Either way, it wasn't a pleasant one. It's difficult to deal with an eloquent liar, but many times, his memory had failed him. Reading through the facts here will probably help him rejuvenate his neurons and subsequently refresh the memory with the candid truth. There are many honest opposite sex friends, but think twice if a male friend to your wife is trying to be funny.

The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Philanthropy and Humanitarianism
Author: Katharyne Mitchell
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000837599
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 446
Book Description
This handbook builds a shared understanding of the troubling politics of philanthropy and the disturbing history and practices of humanitarianism. While historical work on philanthropy has long suggested a link between imperial rule and humanitarian aid, these insights have only recently been brought to bear on contemporary forms of giving. In this book, contributors link the long history of colonial philanthropy to current foundations and their programs in education, health, migrant care, and other social initiatives. They argue that both philanthropy and humanitarianism often function to consolidate market rule, consolidating and expanding liberal market rationalities of neoliberal entrepreneurialism to a widening population and set of institutions. Philanthropy and humanitarianism share a history, growing together out of modernist socio-economic relations and modes of imperial rule. However, the histories and contemporary politics of the two have not been brought together with such breadth or under such a critical lens before. Discussing philanthropy and humanitarianism together, combining both historical scope and contemporary iterations, highlights continuities and convergences—making the volume a unique introduction and critical overview of critical work in these sister-fields.
