Download or read book We Too written by Mary E. DeMuth and published by Harvest House Publishers. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Timely and necessary...This book is not only a warning. It is an opportunity. An opportunity to live out the gospel we so passionately proclaim. And it starts with listening."—J.D. Greear, President of the Southern Baptist Convention Time’s Up: Addressing the Unspoken Crisis in the Church We like to think the church is a haven for the hurting. But what happens when it’s not? Author and advocate Mary DeMuth urges the church she loves to rise up and face the evil of sexual abuse and harassment with candor and empathy. Based on research and survivors’ stories, along with fierce fidelity to Scripture, DeMuth unpacks the church’s response to sexual violence and provides a healthy framework for the church to become a haven of healing instead of an institution of judgment. In the throes of the #MeToo movement, our response as Christians is vital. God beckons us to be good Samaritans to those facing trauma and brokenness in the aftermath of abuse and provide safe spaces to heal. DeMuth advocates for a culture of honesty and listening and calls on the church to enter the places where people are hurting. In the circle of that kind of empathetic #WeToo community, the church must become what it’s meant to be—a place of justice and healing for everyone.
Book Synopsis We Too: Essays on Sex Work and Survival by : Natalie West
Download or read book We Too: Essays on Sex Work and Survival written by Natalie West and published by Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of narrative essays by sex workers presents a crystal-clear rejoinder: there's never been a better time to fight for justice. Responding to the resurgence of the #MeToo movement in 2017, sex workers from across the industry—hookers and prostitutes, strippers and dancers, porn stars, cam models, Dommes and subs alike—complicate narratives of sexual harassment and violence, and expand conversations often limited to normative workplaces. Writing across topics such as homelessness, motherhood, and toxic masculinity, We Too: Essays on Sex Work and Survival gives voice to the fight for agency and accountability across sex industries. With contributions by leading voices in the movement such as Melissa Gira Grant, Ceyenne Doroshow, Audacia Ray, femi babylon, April Flores, and Yin Q, this anthology explores sex work as work, and sex workers as laboring subjects in need of respect—not rescue. A portion of this book's net proceeds will be donated to SWOP Behind Bars (SBB).
Book Synopsis Resistance & Recovery in the #MeToo era, Volume II by : Kate Richmond
Download or read book Resistance & Recovery in the #MeToo era, Volume II written by Kate Richmond and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-15 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using an intersectional approach, this book amplifies the voices of those who were and continue to be at the frontlines resisting and responding to sexual violence during the rise of digital feminist movements, including #NoMore, #TimesUp, and most notably #MeToo. This book outlines the current socio-political landscape, including increased visibility of movements such as #NoMore, #TimesUp, and most notably #MeToo, and the public showcase of accused perpetrators becoming elected to the highest offices in the United States (e.g., Brett Kavanaugh’s election to the Supreme Court, Donald Trump’s election to the Presidency). It offers note to how this political landscape has impacted survivors and therapists, alike. The second volume include 5 chapters that highlight the experiences of feminist therapists and their therapeutic approaches. The chapters in this volume explore the role of technology and digital feminisms on survivor’s experience and its influence on therapist and therapeutic interventions. Both the volumes together cover a wide range of perspectives that bring to light the solidarity that was built among survivors, regardless of identity and experience, within the current socio-political climate while continuing to center the voices of those who are most often marginalized. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Women & Therapy.

Download or read book The Mended Heart written by Suzanne Eller and published by Gospel Light Publications. This book was released on 2014-02-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being hurt and heartbroken is a sad reality for most of us. But I'm so thankful for this treasure of a book written by my friend Suzie Eller. Page by page, Suzie will help you understand how God's truth can heal your pain so you can move forward whole and healed. - Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times Bestselling Author and President of Proverbs 31 Ministries Brokenness happens. Tragedy, sin or the painful choices of others all have the ability to disrupt an otherwise contented life. And as a result of our heartache, we often attempt to fix our own brokenness—with disastrous results. If you've tried to heal, but keep ending up in the same place—whether the battle is in your heart or out in the open where everyone can see—The Mended Heart is for you. In this book, author Suzanne Eller tells it like it is: people throw quick fixes at you, or tell you to pull yourself up by your bootstraps (whatever that means). More important, though, she shares the powerful truth of Jesus' mission as outlined in Luke 4:18-21: He came to set free all those who are oppressed and in need of mending. You don’t have to fix yourself—Jesus loves you right where you are. In fact, He has already completed the work that needs to be done. The Mended Heart will encourage you to trust Him, to give and receive grace, and to move ahead even stronger than before … even if others don’t move with you.

Book excerpt: “One of our smartest, most inventive humor writers, Ortberg combines bathos and the devotional into a revelation.” —Jordy Rosenberg, The New York Times Book Review From the New York Times bestselling author of Texts From Jane Eyre and Merry Spinster, writer of Slate’s “Dear Prudence” column, and cofounder of The Toast comes a hilarious and stirring collection of essays and cultural observations spanning pop culture—from the endearingly popular to the staggeringly obscure. Daniel M. Lavery is known for blending genres, forms, and sources to develop fascinating new hybrids—from lyric rants to horror recipes to pornographic scripture.

From a thoughtful analysis of the beauty of William Shatner to a sinister reimagining of HGTV’s House Hunters, and featuring figures as varied as Anne of Green Gables, Columbo, Nora Ephron, Apollo, and the cast of Mean Girls, Something That May Shock and Discredit You is a hilarious and emotionally exhilarating compendium that combines personal history with cultural history to make you see yourself and those around you entirely anew. It further establishes Lavery as one of the most innovative and engaging voices of his generation—and it may just change the way you think about Lord Byron forever.

Download or read book Black Box written by Shiori Ito and published by Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2021-07-13 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Box is a riveting, sobering memoir that chronicles one woman’s struggle for justice, calling for changes to an industry—and in society at large—to ensure that future victims if sexual assault can come forward without being silenced and humiliated. 2015, an aspiring young journalist named Shiori Ito charged prominent reporter Noriyuki Yamaguchi with rape. After meeting up for drinks and networking, Ito remembers regaining consciousness in a hotel room while being assaulted. But when she went to the police, Ito was told that her case was a “black box”—untouchable and unprosecutable. Upon publication in 2017, Ito’s searing account foregrounded the #MeToo movement in Japan and became the center of an urgent cultural and legal shift around recognizing sexual assault and gender-based violence. As international outlets covered every step of her story—even documenting it in the BBC film Japan’s Secret Shame—this book launched a societal reckoning. At the end of 2019, Ito won a civil case against Yamaguchi. With careful and quiet fury, Black Box recounts a broken system of repression and violence—but it also heralds the beginning of a new solidarity movement seeking a more equitable path toward justice.

Download or read book Restoration written by Diane Tuttle and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All women deserve the right to receive the help they need to live an abundant life. However, US statistics reveal as high as one in three women has experienced sexual abuse, which can result in a life of shame and silence. The Restoration: Beauty from Ashes Study is intended to help women of all ages find hope, strength, and healing. This 11-week study can be utilized by an individual in the privacy of her own home, with a couple of women gathering together, or in a large group that can be broken down into small groups in an agency, community, or church setting. In the moment of abuse a woman's three basic rights are taken away: her voice, strength, and relationships. The HEART of this book is to trust God to restore these rights, making beauty from ashes. Topics discussed include boundaries, emotions, hope, forgiveness, healthy relationships, vision, soul care, and healing. The HOPE of Restoration is to see women move from the association of the "MeToo" movement (I have been sexually abused) to "WeToo" (by God's grace and healing power, I have been restored).

Download or read book Virginia Woolf written by Gillian Gill and published by Mariner Books. This book was released on 2019 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insightful, witty look at Virginia Woolf through the lens of the extraordinary women closest to her. How did Adeline Virginia Stephen become the great writer Virginia Woolf? Acclaimed biographer Gillian Gill tells the stories of the women whose legacies--of strength, style, and creativity--shaped Woolf's path to the radical writing that inspires so many today. Gill casts back to Woolf's French-Anglo-Indian maternal great-grandmother Th r se de L'Etang, an outsider to English culture whose beauty passed powerfully down the female line; and to Woolf's aunt Anne Thackeray Ritchie, who gave Woolf her first vision of a successful female writer. Yet it was the women in her own family circle who had the most complex and lasting effect on Woolf. Her mother, Julia, and sisters Stella, Laura, and Vanessa were all, like Woolf herself, but in markedly different ways, warped by the male-dominated household they lived in. Finally, Gill shifts the lens onto the famous Bloomsbury group. This, Gill convinces, is where Woolf called upon the legacy of the women who shaped her to transform a group of men--united in their love for one another and their disregard for women--into a society in which Woolf ultimately found her freedom and her voice.
