Download or read book Portrait of a Girl Running written by J. Chicoine and published by . This book was released on 2013-10-07 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All Leila wants is to get through her senior year at her new high school without drawing undue attention. Not that she has any big secret to protect, but her unconventional upbringing has made her very private. At seventeen, she realizes just how odd it was that two men raised her-one black, one white-and no mother. Not to mention they were blues musicians, always on the move. When her father died, he left her with a fear of foster care and a plan that would help her fall between the cracks of the system. Three teachers make that impossible-the handsome track coach, her math teacher from hell, and a jealous gym instructor. Compromising situations, accusations of misconduct, and judicial hearings put Leila's autonomy and even her dignity at risk, unless she learns to trust an unlikely ally.
Download or read book Brown Beauty written by Laila Haidarali and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines how the media influenced ideas of race and beauty among African American women from the Harlem Renaissance to World War II. Between the Harlem Renaissance and the end of World War II, a complicated discourse emerged surrounding considerations of appearance of African American women and expressions of race, class, and status. Brown Beauty considers how the media created a beauty ideal for these women, emphasizing different representations and expressions of brown skin. Haidarali contends that the idea of brown as a “respectable shade” was carefully constructed through print and visual media in the interwar era. Throughout this period, brownness of skin came to be idealized as the real, representational, and respectable complexion of African American middle class women. Shades of brown became channels that facilitated discussions of race, class, and gender in a way that would develop lasting cultural effects for an ever-modernizing world. Building on an impressive range of visual and media sources—from newspapers, journals, magazines, and newsletters to commercial advertising—Haidarali locates a complex, and sometimes contradictory, set of cultural values at the core of representations of women, envisioned as “brown-skin.” She explores how brownness affected socially-mobile New Negro women in the urban environment during the interwar years, showing how the majority of messages on brownness were directed at an aspirant middle-class. By tracing brown’s changing meanings across this period, and showing how a visual language of brown grew into a dynamic racial shorthand used to denote modern African American womanhood, Brown Beauty demonstrates the myriad values and judgments, compromises and contradictions involved in the social evaluation of women. This book is an eye-opening account of the intense dynamics between racial identity and the influence mass media has on what, and who we consider beautiful.

Book Synopsis The Suffrage Photography of Lena Connell by : Colleen Denney
Download or read book The Suffrage Photography of Lena Connell written by Colleen Denney and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2021-10-20 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lena Connell was one of a new breed of young professional women who took up photography at the turn of the 20th century. She ran her own studio in North London, only employed women, and made her mark on history by creating compellingly modern portraits of women in the British suffrage movement. The women that Connell captured on film are as class-inclusive a group as you could find: whether they were factory workers, schoolteachers, or aristocrats, they joined the cause to make a difference for future generations of women, if not for themselves. Connell's portraits created a new kind of visibility for these activists as hard-working, unrelenting women, whose spirits rose above injustice. This book examines Connell's artistic career within the Edwardian suffrage movement. It discusses her body of portraits within the British suffrage movement's propagandistic efforts and its goals of sophisticated, professional representations of its members. It includes all of her known portraits of suffragettes through 1914.

Download or read book Thirst written by Chandra Devi Baskaran and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02-13 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIRST is a living testimony of the author of God's promise in Acts 1: 8 on the empowerment of the Holy Spirit to make believers witnesses for Him in their own locality, and indeed, all over the world. Born in a remote village in South India, her first knowledge of God came through a picture of Jesus with John 3: 16 printed at the back, given to her as a small child by a British missionary. A temporary spiritual set back occurred after the death of her beloved father, but her undying thirst for God and the encounter with the Giver of the living waters resulted in rivers flowing freely from within her blessing those around her. This book will satisfy all who have a longing for spiritaul growth, for all lovers of Christ Jesus and the wonderful paths in which He leads His children. The unquenchable thirst that the author had to be filled with the gifts of the Holy spirit became her life experience which she deserves to pass on to her readers in words of simplicity and grace, each chapter dealing with a specific gift.
