This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2015 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Frankfurt (Main) (Institut für England- und Amerikastudien), language: English, abstract: The purpose of this thesis is to illuminate the manner in which violence is represented in two significant Afro-American autobiographies, Frederick Douglass` Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave (hereafter shortened as Narrative) and Richard Wright`s Black Boy. As Afro-American autobiography has always been a "mirror" to U.S. society, it will be interesting to see how these autobiographies taken from different periods of American history deal with the race-oriented problem of "violence." As we will see, the very first Afro-American autobiographies, so-called slave narratives, already included representations of violence that documented the atrocities that black people had to endure. Remarkably, Richard Wright`s Black Boy shares many textual features of the slave narratives, such as the escape from the South after a traumatizing experience of violence.

Book Synopsis Black Rage Confronts the Law by : Paul Harris
Download or read book Black Rage Confronts the Law written by Paul Harris and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1997-05-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1971, Paul Harris pioneered the modern version of the black rage defense when he successfully defended a young black man charged with armed bank robbery. Dubbed one of the most novel criminal defenses in American history by Vanity Fair, the black rage defense is enormously controversial, frequently dismissed as irresponsible, nothing less than a harbinger of anarchy. Consider the firestorm of protest that resulted when the defense for Colin Ferguson, the gunman who murdered numerous passengers on a New York commuter train, claimed it was considering a black rage defense. In this thought-provoking book, Harris traces the origins of the black rage defense back through American history, recreating numerous dramatic trials along the way. For example, he recounts in vivid detail how Clarence Darrow, defense attorney in the famous Scopes Monkey trial, first introduced the notion of an environmental hardship defense in 1925 while defending a black family who shot into a drunken white mob that had encircled their home. Emphasizing that the black rage defense must be enlisted responsibly and selectively, Harris skillfully distinguishes between applying an environmental defense and simply blaming society, in the abstract, for individual crimes. If Ferguson had invoked such a defense, in Harris's words, it would have sent a superficial, wrong-headed, blame-everything-on-racism message. Careful not to succumb to easy generalizations, Harris also addresses the possibilities of a white rage defense and the more recent phenomenon of cultural defenses. He illustrates how a person's environment can, and does, affect his or her life and actions, how even the most rational person can become criminally deranged, when bludgeoned into hopelessness by exploitation, racism, and relentless poverty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beloved American classic, NARRATIVE OF THE LIFE is reprinted by Mercer University Press with a new introduction by Scott C. Williamson. This spellbinding narrative tells the story of Frederick Douglass before he became a rock star for African American rights. Written in 1845, the first of three autobiographical accounts, NARRATIVE OF THE LIFE showcases the intelligence, penetrating insight, wit, literary flair, and pathos of the young abolitionist as he documented his life in slavery for a skeptical northern public. Douglass recounts in vivid detail the dehumanizing character of chattel slavery contested by the irrepressible humanity of enslaved African Americans. Through his recollections, we feel the sting of the heavy cowskin whip and hear the tones loud, long, and deep of souls boiling over with the bitterest anguish.

Book Synopsis Honoring Differences by : Kathleen Nader
Download or read book Honoring Differences written by Kathleen Nader and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wars, violence, and natural disasters often require mental health interventions with people from a multitude of ethnic groups, religions, and nationalities. Within the United States, those who care for the victims of trauma often assist individuals from a variety of immigrant cultures. Moreover, many aspiring mental health professionals from other countries seek training in the United States, creating an additional need for a broad cultural awareness within educational institutions. Honoring Differences deals with the treatment of trauma and loss while recognizing and understanding the cultural context in which the mental health professional provides assistance. Training in the cultural beliefs that may interact with traumatic reactions is essential, both to assess traumatic response accurately and to prevent harm in the process of assessing and treating trauma. Various cultures within the United States and several international communities are featured in the book. Each culturally-specific chapter aims to help the caregiver honor the valued traditions, main qualities, and held beliefs of the culture described and prepare to enter the community well-informed and well-equipped to intervene or consult effectively. Further more, the book provides information about issues, traditions, and characteristics of the culture, which are essential in moving through the phases of post-trauma or other mental health intervention. Mental health professionals, trauma specialists, missionaries, and organizations that send consultants to other nations, will find Honoring Differences essential reading. It will also be a resource to those who are interested in cultural differences and in honoring the belief systems of other cultures and nations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert ‘Bob’ Jones – crew leader, shipyard worker, educated, employed – is finding life impossible. Though he has recently been promoted to supervisor at the Los Angeles shipyard where he works, he is disrespected and resented by white colleagues; and despite his relationship with the high-class Alice, he is crudely baited by white woman Madge. Over the course of four fraught days, he is plagued with increasingly violent urges as the bigotry and cruelty he faces in day-to-day interactions mounts. A masterful reckoning with the poisonous effects of racism and a monumental classic in the protest novel tradition, this 1945 novel is as shattering and trenchant today as it was on first publication.
