Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about being Ethiopian American. It is a guide for youth and families like mine. We are diverse in our cultures and our countries differ quite a lot. It has helped me learn about my extended family and I hope it will help you too. We must forgive and learn to get along. Remember one day when you are an adult treat the children like you wanted to be treated. We must be fair, patient and kind, whether you are an adult or a child. Treat all elders with respect and all children like their angels are watching. This is what I hope to accomplish. My prayer is for forgiveness of our sins, for my teachers to understand me and all the other children. I pray for good behavior in school and that God keeps all my family safe from harm. I want people to show more of the love of God, be nicer and to make their parents proud.

Book Synopsis Keepers of the Secret Code by : Kj Williams
Download or read book Keepers of the Secret Code written by Kj Williams and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Farrow is a slave. He's grown up with his family on Dover Plantation, South Carolina where he does small jobs. When he's not working, Peter likes to play with the other slave's children, or go fishing with the master's daughter, Emily. Sometimes, he even gets to sit in on Emily's school lessons and learn to read. Since Peter is almost twelve, it's time for him to learn a trade. The master has agreed for Peter to apprentice with Samuel, the plantation's carpenter. Peter is happy he won't have to fetch and carry anymore, or work in the dairy, churning butter. However, Peter's mother decides it's time he learns the family's secret. She and her husband have been active in the Underground Railroad, helping slaves escape. They use secret codes sewn into quilts and wagons with a secret hiding place. When traveling to other plantations doing work for the master, Peter's father transports runaways in the wagon's false bottom. Until now, Peter has been too young to keep a secret of this magnitude. But John, the cruel overseer, has other plans for Peter. He wants Peter out in the fields, doing the backbreaking work of a grownup slave, where Peter is close enough to feel his whip. When Peter comes between Samuel and the sadistic overseer's whip, Peter makes a terrible enemy. Overseer John alerts the master about Emily spending too much time with Peter. When the two friends are caught together multiple times, the master decides to sell Peter down south. Distraught, Peter's mother and father decide to "transport" him away from Dover Plantation before he can be sold. Using the secret quilt codes, other runaways join Peter's family as they make their way to the first safe house on the Underground Railroad. When they arrive, Peter's parents make the hard decision to send him on to Canada with Samuel while they remain in South Carolina, helping more runaways escape to freedom. A poignant tale of an enslaved family making the difficult decision to "do their part" for their kinsmen instead of running together toward their own freedom.

Book excerpt: Battle cry (noun): a loud shout given by soldiers to frighten the enemy or to encourage their own side. We all have a story to tell. Our life stories, the real and the messy ones, are God’s battle cry. They are meant to encourage one another and to push back the enemy—but they must be shared to do that. In Battle Cry, author Jordyn Glaser shares her story, her personal battle cry. Filled with both trials and tribulations, she chronicles her journey to discovering the beauty of her brokenness. Through her experiences of being born with a complicated heart condition, having children with rare birth defects, and the emotional roller coaster of multiple adoptions, Glaser acknowledges the strength of Christ and the value of being refined in the fire. Glaser uses her own story as a tool to rally the troops. She encourages all to stop living small and to fight big. In Battle Cry, she delivers the message that we weren’t created to be the hero of our own stories—we were created to be the rescued.

Book Synopsis Keeper of the Fire: by : Teresa Kemp
Download or read book Keeper of the Fire: written by Teresa Kemp and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-11-30 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you were left with questions after reading "Hidden in Plain View" by Tobin & Dobard, this book has the answers. The 1st book done by Dr. Ozella William's family. It's a presentation of 5 generation's collective research. In the"Keeper of the Fire", they share age-old fabrics of internationally gathered photos of the quilt patterns on homes, art & people. Her European family is documented from 149 AD. This starts the documentation of Farrow-McDaniel's African history sources. They tell their own story.Few Americans read multi-lingual sources preserved centuries by international slavers. They piece a sampler quilt for you. Using common sense as binding, primary sources the stitching, gathering African metallurgy & symbols Mrs. Kemp exposes distortions/omissions.THE RESEARCH CONTINUES: Here is what they know. In 1844, Thomas Dover, willed Dover Hall Plantation estate to nephew, William D. Jenkins. Peter & Eliza Farrow, are listed among the subjugated workers.Serena mother's, (Mary Eva) great-grandparents survived slavery & had a son in 1850's. Named Peter Farrow Jr. after his father, he continued in service to his extended family & community. He shared Igbo culture with his children (Tom, Frank Nora & Jency), and his great grandchildren. Peter died in 1946 in SC. They have 6 generations living, the oldest turned 104, Aug. of 2014 & 5 family members in the 90's.MS. WILSON'S AUNT TRAVELED TO GERMANY: Aunt Ozella traveled to tour with her family several times. In Europe Ozella, would point out stolen African or purchased artifacts. Ms. Kemp also visited with Ozella in Los Angeles, CA for 2 weeks in 1975.The Quilt Code was not created in 1990's, Ozella (Mary Eva's sister) copyrighted the "Quilt Codes" in 1950, 6 years after her grandfather died. The late Mrs. Wilson & Mrs. T. Kemp re-applied & received the US Copyrights.2" KNOTS: Mnemonic devices used in quilts. Knots in quilts are similar to Catholic rosary, used as points of Godly contact. For centuries history was memory, songs, paintings, monoliths or in tapestries. Each method of recording are accepted worldwide as communication.In communicating with God for Igbo groups, everything can be used, as a way of making tangible the belief of protection over them.ONE FAMILY'S HISTORY: The Torah, Koran & Bible are stories of Abraham's family. Israel's presence in W. Africa, being taken worldwide for slavery, I guess does qualify as just "one families" story, Mrs. Kemp was told by her mother."I'm baffled why some American quilting & scholarly communities were confounded by the idea of maps & messages depicted in a quilt. We're not the only ethnic group who used textile maps. My children asked questions about racism & views of people doubting history of ancient African people. You speak textile language," noted Mrs. Kemp.Newspapers show people wanted to enslave Irish & German immigrants! "Nothing can change ignorance but education. Education doesn't change the mistakes made by not knowing history and not learning from previous bad behavior", said Mrs. Kemp. Igbo followed the Levitical Code. Everything is seen from Chukwu (God's) view. (Like "WWJD"-What Would Jesus Do)"Age is not excuse for idleness. Everyone has a duty to perform, some pray, some have strength, tools or knowledge, others time and money. Even if you don't need help now, sooner or later you'll benefit", says, Kemp.Teresa Kemp, 5th generation master quilter with her late parents, Dr. Howard & Serena Wilson, own one of the largest private collections. She exhibits, consults & collaborates worldwide. Teaching "freedom through obedience to God's Word", The mission-teach the "Golden Rule", delayed gratification & reconciliation skills to at risk-populations, one program at a time. Kemp still sounds the alarm, fighting modern day slavery called "Human Trafficking" with God driven intensity & zeal.

Book Synopsis Marriage in Interesting Times by : Robert D. Cornwall
Download or read book Marriage in Interesting Times written by Robert D. Cornwall and published by Energion Publications. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study guide on marriage. Discussions include: covenant vs contract, concepts of biblical marriage, loneliness and looking for a mate, the realities of divorce, and family in the larger community. I titled the study guide “Marriage in Interesting Times,” because we are living at a time when profound changes in the way marriage is understood. Not that long ago, it was assumed by many in American society that traditional marriage not only involved a man and a woman, but the man was the head of the household and the woman was a homemaker. The man earned the money, and the woman cared for the children and kept the house in order. Then came the idea that husband and wife were equal partners in the marriage. In most cases both partners worked outside the home, and they shared more equally the duties of the home. Today, the definition of marriage has evolved one more time to include same-sex couples … So, when we talk about marriage in the twenty-first century, at least in the United States, and a number of other nations around the globe, we must remember that the legal definition, if not the religious one, includes both gay and straight couples. Yes, these are interesting times. Dr. Bob Cornwall It is the hope of both Dr. Cornwall and Energion Pubications that there will be more dialogue during this study and less diatribes.

Book Synopsis Menstruation Matters by : Bridget J. Crawford
Download or read book Menstruation Matters written by Bridget J. Crawford and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2024-10 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores the burgeoning menstrual advocacy movement and analyzes how law should evolve to take menstruation into account. Approximately half the population menstruates for a large portion of their lives, but the law is mostly silent about the topic. Until recently, most people would have said that periods are private matters not to be discussed in public. But the last few years have seen a new willingness among advocates and allies of all ages to speak openly about periods. Slowly around the globe, people are recognizing the basic fundamental human right to address menstruation in a safe and affordable way, free of stigma, shame, or barriers to access. Menstruation Matters explores the role of law in this movement. It asks what the law currently says about menstruation (spoiler alert: not much) and provides a roadmap for legal reform that can move society closer to a world where no one is held back or disadvantaged by menstruation. Bridget J. Crawford and Emily Gold Waldman examine these issues in a wide range of contexts, from schools to workplaces to prisons to tax policies and more. Ultimately, they seek to transform both law and society so that menstruation is no longer an obstacle to full participation in all aspects of public and private life.
