Children began crowding round me, and I still didn't realize that they meant me, I was the Ethiopian. Meskerem was born in a small town in the Golan Heights of Israel, to an Ethiopian mother and an American father. Soon after Operation Solomon, when several thousand Ethiopian immigrants were brought to Israel, Meskerem's parents decided to move to the center of the country, to the town of Herzelia. Meskerem comes face-to-face with the ignorance and prejudices of her new classmates, many of whom are meeting someone dark-skinned for the first time. With the help of her Ethiopian grandmother, who remained in Kazerin, Meskerem comes to terms with who she is and finds strength in belonging to three different cultures.

Book Synopsis Home Away from Home by : N. Michelle Murray
Download or read book Home Away from Home written by N. Michelle Murray and published by University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of Romance Studies. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home Away from Home: Immigrant Narratives, Domesticity, and Coloniality in Contemporary Spanish Culture examines ideological, emotional, economic, and cultural phenomena brought about by migration through readings of works of literature and film featuring domestic workers. In the past thirty years, Spain has experienced a massive increase in immigration. Since the 1990s, immigrants have been increasingly female, as bilateral trade agreements, migration quotas, and immigration policies between Spain and its former colonies (including the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Equatorial Guinea, and the Philippines) have created jobs for foreign women in the domestic service sector. These migrations reveal that colonial histories continue to be structuring elements of Spanish national culture, even in a democratic era in which its former colonies are now independent. Migration has also transformed the demographic composition of Spain and has created complex new social relations around the axes of gender, race, and nationality. Representations of migrant domestic workers provide critical responses to immigration and its feminization, alongside profound engagements with how the Spanish nation has changed since the end of the Franco era in 1975. Throughout Home Away from Home, readings of works of literature and film show that texts concerning the transnational nature of domestic work uniquely provide a nuanced account of the cultural shifts occurring in late twentieth- through twenty-first-century Spain.

Book Synopsis So Far From Home by : Patricia Trainor O'Malley, PH D
Download or read book So Far From Home written by Patricia Trainor O'Malley, PH D and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-20 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story in letters of two Irish families, the Donovans of Dreenlamane, Ballydehob and the McCarthys of Ballinlough, Leap. Both homes were in south-western County Cork. They were ordinary farming families in 19th century Ireland. The usual tools of genealogy provide us with the bare bones of the individuals in the story. We can learn about births, family names, marriages, and deaths. But, by a series of unexpected coincidences, we have been given flesh for those bones. The names and dates provided by genealogy have been given personalities and voices and individuality. We know their words and ideas, joys and fears, the inner concerns and shared touches of humor, because the Donovans and the McCarthys wrote letters to their family in America. And one Donovan and one McCarthy saved the letters. These 200 letters have much in common, though the families who saved them did not. They were written in the late nineteenth-early twentieth century, many of them in Ireland, others by immigrant friends in America. The recipients in all cases were Irish immigrants, with the vast majority of the letters being sent within the first five years of their arrival in America. The two major recipients, Dan Donovan and Nora McCarthy resided in Haverhill, a shoe manufacturing center in the northeast corner of Massachusetts. Combined, they offer a rare retrospect of the daily rural life west of Cork and the Irish perception of life in America.

Book excerpt: On February 1, 2003, ten astronauts were orbiting the planet. Seven headed back to Earth on the space shuttle Columbia. They never made it. And the three men left behind found themselves too far from home. Chris Jones chronicles the efforts of the beleaguered Mission Control in Houston and Moscow as they work frantically against the clock to bring their men safely back to Earth, ultimately settling on a plan that felt, at best, like a long shot. Yet even amid the danger, the call of space is a siren song, and Too Far From Home details beautifully the majesty and mystique of space travel, while reminding us all how perilous it is to soar beyond the sky.
