Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly three decades after her pioneering anthology, Daughters of Africa, Margaret Busby curates an extraordinary collection of contemporary writing by 200 women writers of African descent, including Zadie Smith, Bernardine Evaristo and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. A glorious portrayal of the richness and range of African women's voices, this major international book brings together their achievements across a wealth of genres. From Antigua to Zimbabwe and Angola to the USA, overlooked artists of the past join key figures, popular contemporaries and emerging writers in paying tribute to the heritage that unites them, the strong links that endure from generation to generation, and their common obstacles around issues of race, gender and class. Bold and insightful, brilliant in its intimacy and universality, this landmark anthology honours the talents of African daughters and the inspiring legacy that connects them-and all of us.

Beginning with seminal works by such writers as Donald Goines and Iceberg Slim and culminating in contemporary fiction, autobiography, and poetry, Hip Hop literature is exerting the same kind of influence as Hip Hop music, fashion, and culture. Through more than 180 alphabetically arranged entries, this encyclopedia surveys the world of Hip Hop literature and places it in its social and cultural contexts. Entries cite works for further reading, and a bibliography concludes the volume. Coverage includes authors, genres, and works, as well as on the musical artists, fashion designers, directors, and other figures who make up the context of Hip Hop literature. Entries cite works for further reading, and the encyclopedia concludes with a selected, general bibliography. Students in literature classes will value this guide to an increasingly popular body of literature, while students in social studies classes will welcome its illumination of American cultural diversity.

This book was released on 2023-11-08 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the realm of higher education, a persistent challenge exists in empowering Black and brown students within Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs) to transcend societal limitations. Often labeled as "at risk" or lagging within the achievement gap, these students possess untapped potential hindered by traditional teaching methods. The impact of COVID-19 and racial injustice has exacerbated disparities, underscoring the need for innovative teaching approaches that connect academic subjects with the real experiences of these learners. Educators navigating evolving technology and diverse classrooms strive to bridge this gap while fostering cultural inclusivity. Addressing this challenge is the book Culturally Responsive Pedagogies in the Humanities at HBCUs and HSIs, curated by DuEwa M. Frazier. Representing a groundbreaking collective effort, the book offers transformative educational practices that bridge the gap between conventional teaching and the diverse realities of HBCU and HSI classrooms. Covering topics like teaching ESL and EFL students, accommodating disabilities, integrating hip-hop pedagogies, and promoting social justice education, the anthology provides research-driven solutions that empower educators to revolutionize their teaching methods. To foster academic excellence and equity, the book resonates with scholars, administrators, and educators, guiding them on a journey of innovation that harmonizes cultural responsiveness and academic achievement, ushering in a new era of education.

Book excerpt: From the award nominated poet and author of Shedding Light From My Journeys, Stardust Tracks on a Road, Ten Marbles and a Bag to Put Them In: Poems for Childrens, comes a new volume of powerful, inspirational poetry. Goddess Under the Bridge, DuEwa Frazier's fourth poetry collection, is a meditation on the beautiful, the ugly, the passion, the struggle and reflection of the inner goddess. The poems pay homage to Alice Coltrane, Suzan Lori Parks, Lucille Clifton and other notable artists. Frazier's words shake and shout, rant and conjure moving and familiar images from the past, present and future of one's waking life. "DuEwa Frazier offers more than glossy words. The strength and beauty of all women-resonates like a Coltrane solo in her meditations. The precious metal of her poetry has arrived." -Truth Thomas, Poet and Author of Speak Water

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African American Women’s Language: Discourse, Education, and Identity is a groundbreaking collection of research on African American Women’s Language that is long overdue. It brings together a range of research including variationist, autoethnography, phenomenological, ethnographic, and critical. The authors come from a variety of disciplines (e.g., Sociology, African American Studies, Africana Studies, Linguistics, Sociophonetics, Sociolinguistics, Anthropology, Literacy, Education, English, Ecological Literature, Film, Hip Hop, Language Variation), scientific paradigms (e.g., critical race theory, narrative, interaction, discursive, variationist, post-structural, and post-positive perspectives), and inquiry methods (e.g., quantitative, qualitative, ethnographic, and multimethod) while addressing a variety of African American female populations (e.g., elementary school, middle school, adults) and activity settings (e.g., classrooms, family, community, church, film). Readers will get a good sense of the language, discourse, identity, community, and grammar of African American women. The essays provide the most current research on African American Women’s Language and expand a literature that has too often only focused on male populations at the expense of letting the sistas speak.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourteen essays in this collection were drawn from papers presented at the annual conference of the American Culture Association in April of 2006. The widely ranging topics and diverse points of view are typical of papers showcased by this organization of educators, writers, cultural critics and graduate students. These essays each consider the pedagogical parameters by which the art of the United States is defined and, as we are a nation of many voices, they further represent the multicultural identities of America and its citizens. From traditional art historical analysis to post-modernist deconstruction, the authors represented herein explore paintings, prints, sculpture, and architectural objects, in the context of history, philosophy, aesthetics, and political points of view. The writers themselves represent multidisciplinary viewpoints, from art history to literature to architecture and social work. Their papers reflect current scholarship, speaking from the most up to date of pedagogies, and in voices which are both critical and analytical. They further speak for the American Culture Association whose mission it is to explore "all manifestations of the cultures of the Americas."

As fall turns to winter and then spring, fear grows into anger, then pride and peace.

Here is a groundbreaking narrative that can help all readers—children and adults alike—talk about the feelings hiding deep inside each of us.

Book excerpt: If asked to list the greatest innovators of modern American poetry, few of us would think to include Jay-Z or Eminem in their number. And yet hip hop is the source of some of the most exciting developments in verse today. The media uproar in response to its controversial lyrical content has obscured hip hop's revolution of poetic craft and experience: Only in rap music can the beat of a song render poetic meter audible, allowing an MC's wordplay to move a club-full of eager listeners. Examining rap history's most memorable lyricists and their inimitable techniques, literary scholar Adam Bradley argues that we must understand rap as poetry or miss the vanguard of poetry today. Book of Rhymes explores America's least understood poets, unpacking their surprisingly complex craft, and according rap poetry the respect it deserves.
