Download or read book A Knock on the Door written by Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2015-12-15 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “It can start with a knock on the door one morning. It is the local Indian agent, or the parish priest, or, perhaps, a Mounted Police officer.” So began the school experience of many Indigenous children in Canada for more than a hundred years, and so begins the history of residential schools prepared by the Truth & Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC). Between 2008 and 2015, the TRC provided opportunities for individuals, families, and communities to share their experiences of residential schools and released several reports based on 7000 survivor statements and five million documents from government, churches, and schools, as well as a solid grounding in secondary sources. A Knock on the Door, published in collaboration with the National Research Centre for Truth & Reconciliation, gathers material from the several reports the TRC has produced to present the essential history and legacy of residential schools in a concise and accessible package that includes new materials to help inform and contextualize the journey to reconciliation that Canadians are now embarked upon. Survivor and former National Chief of the Assembly First Nations, Phil Fontaine, provides a Foreword, and an Afterword introduces the holdings and opportunities of the National Centre for Truth & Reconciliation, home to the archive of recordings, and documents collected by the TRC. As Aimée Craft writes in the Afterword, knowing the historical backdrop of residential schooling and its legacy is essential to the work of reconciliation. In the past, agents of the Canadian state knocked on the doors of Indigenous families to take the children to school. Now, the Survivors have shared their truths and knocked back. It is time for Canadians to open the door to mutual understanding, respect, and reconciliation.
Download or read book A Knock at the Door written by Ory Slonim and published by Wicked Son. This book was released on 2021-12-21 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suppose one day, your son or husband, while serving in the military or working as a journalist, is taken hostage by a terrorist group—and you have no idea whether your loved one is dead or alive or how to even make contact with the insurgents holding him. It’s a nightmare scenario that has sadly taken place dozens of times in the past twenty years in the Middle East. Here in the U.S., the government does not always get involved. Instead, it will engage the services of a neutral country to negotiate with the terrorists. Unfortunately, many times the terrorists insist on never-ending demands in order to torment the family of the hostage. Unlike Israel, we’ve never had a central address for these types of scenarios. But maybe after reading this book, it’s an idea we could, and should, consider. Ory Slonim, the international “door knocker” was an invention of necessity by the Israeli government. There were many good and brave human beings involved in this matter. Here for the first time is the story of the one man in Israel who, for more than two decades, was known as the “door knocker.” He had been a private Israeli lawyer when he was asked to undertake, on behalf of the Israeli government, secret negotiations to find out the whereabouts of Israeli soldiers who were taken hostage by terrorist groups. His ultimate mission was to bring them home, dead or alive. In his capacity as negotiator, his story will take into you into the worlds of the furtive Mossad, the twisted minds of terrorists, the forever traumatized lives of the parents whose children never came home from battle, and into Ory’s own resilient, compassionate, and amazingly resolute negotiations when ordinary people would have easily broken down.

Book Synopsis Knocking on the Door by : Christopher Bonastia
Download or read book Knocking on the Door written by Christopher Bonastia and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-11-16 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knocking on the Door is the first book-length work to analyze federal involvement in residential segregation from Reconstruction to the present. Providing a particularly detailed analysis of the period 1968 to 1973, the book examines how the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) attempted to forge elementary changes in segregated residential patterns by opening up the suburbs to groups historically excluded for racial or economic reasons. The door did not shut completely on this possibility until President Richard Nixon took the drastic step of freezing all federal housing funds in January 1973. Knocking on the Door assesses this near-miss in political history, exploring how HUD came surprisingly close to implementing rigorous antidiscrimination policies, and why the agency's efforts were derailed by Nixon. Christopher Bonastia shows how the Nixon years were ripe for federal action to foster residential desegregation. The period was marked by new legislative protections against housing discrimination, unprecedented federal involvement in housing construction, and frequent judicial backing for the actions of civil rights agencies. By comparing housing desegregation policies to civil rights enforcement in employment and education, Bonastia offers an unrivaled account of why civil rights policies diverge so sharply in their ambition and effectiveness.

Book excerpt: Online marketing is expensive and unpredictable. Telemarketing is on life support and under attack. Generating business the old-fashioned way has only one option left. Going out and finding customers where they are... Behind the doors. James Festini has been selling door to door from the age of 7 when he worked the streets of Southern California selling newspaper subscriptions. Yeah, this was legal in the 80s. From there he moved up to window washing and ultimately into selling residential real estate. For nearly 4 decades he masted the art of communication and the skills required to make sales happen. After 28 years of making over six figures, and a few recessions, including the big one, he hit the streets once again to find business the old-fashioned way. The economy has recovered but the ability for individuals to gain customers in a "swipe left" society has become a game of cat and mouse. This book shows you how you deal with the modern consumer and gain their trust and ultimately get the order. In this insightful tutorial, you will also gain insight into never before taught methods to engage the contact within seconds and identify motivation right away. Saving you valuable time to move on to the next prospect. You will also learn the right words to say so that there is no rejection at the door. The fear of rejection stops most of us from going out and knocking. He will teach you simple scripts and dialogues to have meaningful conversations that get just enough information to close, follow up or move on to find someone who will say yes.
Book Synopsis Knocking the Door of Happiness by : Anuradha H.N
Download or read book Knocking the Door of Happiness written by Anuradha H.N and published by Walnut Publication. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a long time, we have been observing changes in our lifestyles, working patterns, our preferences in movies & sports, but one thing has been constant - ‘the struggle to stay happy’. The main reason for writing this book is to bring happiness in the life of an individual. A lot has been said and written about physical and mental health but how this co-relates to your inner peace and happiness is something which has a wider scope for research and discussions. We have tried to analyse the approach of being happy from a different perspective which includes Spiritual, Psychological and other aspects of one’s life. We strongly believe that one’s source of happiness differs from the other individual but in the end, everyone wants to have a peaceful sleep & a happy morning. As quoted by ‘Eleanor Roosevelt- “Happiness is not a goal, it is a by-product”. We have tried to analyse and interpret the outcomes of our day to day activities and all the little achievements (which we usually tend to ignore) plays an important part to lead a happy life. This book does not talk about any thumb rule as the title itself - ‘Knocking the door of Happiness’ is very subjective, we have tried to showcase few aspects which can co-relate with individuals of all the age groups. They can surely take few best practices to implement in their daily lives which will help them to appreciate all the little things and to acknowledge the happiness lies within.

Download or read book The Knock at the Door written by Ryan Manion and published by Center Street. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three Gold Star women, linked forever by unimaginable loss, share their inspiring, unlikely journey that began on the worst day of their lives. What happens when tragedy knocks on your front door? For us, it was a literal knock, with two men standing in crisply pressed uniforms. They had news. News that gutted us to the core -- the death of our loved ones, a brother and two husbands -- in combat zones. The thing about those moments is that it's almost inconceivable that they can happen to you. That is, until they do. This book is for anyone who has ever received a knock at the door. And if you live long enough and have the courage to love others, you will. Maybe it's a cancer diagnosis. Maybe it's the death of your best friend. The betrayal of a spouse. The loss of a child. The implosion of a professional career. Or any tragedy that takes the person we love the most away from us too soon. Life is not without its challenges. The key is how you respond.This is our story. The story of three women, bonded by grief and purpose. Grief because we lost our best friends in war. Purpose because we resolved -- together -- to do something about it. To turn loss into inspiration for others and to channel the love that we had for the men in our lives into love for others through service. It was the only way we could escape the trap of despair and inaction, and we believe it offers a roadmap for anyone else who has ever had to answer a knock at the door.
