Download or read book You Can't Beat An Alabama Woman written by Kathryn Coumanis and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-10-29 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1978 Domestic Violence was not a recognized criminal offence nor a term used or understood by most Americans. There were no shelters or services for these victims and their children. The very first shelters were in England and little was known about them. Unscathed by this lack of information or workable data Kathryn had only to hear by accident about the Shelter movement in England when the “light bulb” went off and her mission was confirmed. Against all odds and with the threat of committing “professional suicide” she set out to do that which she had no earthly idea how to accomplish, establish a shelter for battered women and their children. With the encouragement of her women’s organization, The Daughter’s of Penelope the impossible became a reality. Penelope House opened on March 19, 1979 as the first Battered Women’s shelter in Alabama and the fifth such shelter in the United States.

Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this book is to make a passionate, but practical appeal to the reasonable, to the rational, to the righteous, and even to the radical and the racist, to reconsider the error of their ways regarding a host of pertinent issues facing 21st century United States of America. If you are a person that is fake, phony, or a fool, you might not want to read this book. If you can’t handle the unfiltered, politically incorrect, unadulterated truth, then don’t read this book. If you are sensitive and easily offended, don’t read this book. If you are not in one those categories, you need to read this book. This book represents the author’s frustration with a people and a nation that is losing its way. This book calls out a divided 21st-century America, that in many cases, calls right wrong and calls wrong right. America has become a nation, that in some cases, applauds, condones, and celebrates wrong doing, but dismisses and ignores doing right. A nation who has certain citizens who think they are upholding the ideals and freedoms of the foundation of this country, but on the contrary, are doing and behaving in a way that is the exact opposite of the values and principles this nation was founded on. This book is a wake-up call to the citizens of the greatest nation in the history of mankind to come together and get it together, before we wreck it together. This book is a wake-up call to my black community. We must do better. This book is a wake-up call to all Christians in America. Christians in America have got to rise up and come together to do better. This book is a wake-up call to white America. White Americans must do better. This book also is a wake-up call and reminder to all American citizens to be thankful for our fine military personnel, border patrol agents, ICE agents, police officers, fireman, and all civic duty servants, who faithfully put their lives on the line every day to insure the safety of the citizens of this country. This book is a wake-up call to all Americans. We, as a nation, must come together to do better. To black, white, brown and all Americans, don’t let the controversial title deter you from reading this book. This book challenges black, white, brown, yellow and all Americans to do better toward one another. We have some critical issues facing this nation and this book does not shy away from addressing any of them head on. This book also offers wise, practical, fair, and reasonable solutions to many of the critical issues facing this nation. There are so many interesting and different topics discussed in this book, it is like getting ten books in one. This book is like a strong cup of coffee or a spicy bowl of gumbo. It has a little some of everything in it and it will give some people heartburn. Unarmed Blacks being killed and abused by those sworn to protect us, and nothing is being done about it. Blacks killing one another at record numbers, and no one seems to care. The book How To Kill A Black Man offers a very thought-provoking answer to this controversial, eye brow raising, emotion stirring title. This book also deals with a lot other interesting, debatable controversial, yet pertinent topics to meditate and consider. Not only does this book address controversial issues, it also offers reasonable and honest solutions to some challenging issues in the African–American community and 21st century United States of America.
Book Synopsis Flyin' West and Other Plays by : Pearl Cleage
Download or read book Flyin' West and Other Plays written by Pearl Cleage and published by Theatre Communications Group. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Pearl Cleage is a passionate, challenging playwright whose concerns for the species are unmistakable and profound. As a woman, as an African-American, her artistic objectivity and sensitivity to history combine with, but do not overshadow, her capacity to dig for truth and present it flat out as she sees it – with a finger snap or a shout and sometimes with a wink. Among the most satisfying roles I’ve undertaken on stage is surely Miss Leah in Flyin’ West. She brings the bushel nuggets of drama and humor that capture the ear, the heart and the imagination. She’s devilish, too.” –Academy Award® Nominee Ruby Dee “Ms. Cleage writes with amazing grace and killer instinct.” –Alvin Klein, New York Times “Pearl Cleage is a brilliant storyteller. I am always engrossed in the drama and compassion she brings to her characters. Flyin’ West, Bourbon at the Border, Blues for an Alabama Sky, Late Bus to Mecca and Chain are marvelous examples of a playwright at the top of her form, bravely moving into the new century.” –Woodie King, Jr., Producing Director, New Federal Theatre Pearl Cleage’s body of work for the stage provides us with a remarkable and penetrating look at the African-American experience over the last 100 years. This volume collects her major full-length plays and one-acts, including Flyin’ West, Blues for an Alabama Sky, Bourbon at the Border, Chain and Late Bus to Mecca. PEARL CLEAGE is an Atlanta-based writer whose recent plays have premiered at The Alliance Theatre Company with subsequent productions throughout the country. Her first novel What Looks Like Crazy on an Ordinary Day was a recent Oprah’s Book Club Selection and a national bestseller. She is a former columnist of the Atlanta Tribune and a contributor to Essence Magazine.

Book Synopsis World War I and the American Constitution by : William G. Ross
Download or read book World War I and the American Constitution written by William G. Ross and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-27 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First World War profoundly affected the American political system by transforming constitutional law and providing the predicate for the modern administrative state. In this groundbreaking study, William G. Ross examines the social, political, economic and legal forces that generated this rapid change. Ross explains how the war increased federal and state economic regulatory powers, transferred power from Congress to the President, and altered federalism by enhancing the powers of the federal government. He demonstrates how social changes generated by the war provided a catalyst for the expansion of personal liberties, including freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and the rights of women, racial minorities, and industrial workers. Through a study of constitutional law, gender, race, economics, labor, the prohibition movement, international relations, civil liberties, and society, this book provides a major contribution to our understanding of the development of the American Constitution.

This book was released on 2019-11-17 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 12, 2019, I was ready with a plan to fight the irresponsible I-10 toll scheme by Alabama's Governor and Department of Transportation. I started a Facebook group at no cost to organize the citizen opposition. We had one member - me. Within three months, we had gained 50,000 members. Not just names on a list. Active, e-mailing, snail-mailing, telephoning, meeting-going, friend-inviting, Facebook-promoting members. These citizen activists, most of them brand new to activism, fought and fought and -- WON. On Aug. 28, 2019, the toll scheme was pronounced dead. This book tells the story of how 50,000-plus citizens and I forced the toll scheme from an inevitable done deal to a dead deal. __Jim Zeigler, Alabama's State Auditor

Book Synopsis Women Give Men Too Much Power by : Charlotte Hall
Download or read book Women Give Men Too Much Power written by Charlotte Hall and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-06-18 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thought-provoking, enlightening, and empowering read awaits readers, especially women, as author Charlotte Hall shares how Women Give Men Too Much Power and lose themselves in the process. Because some men tend to forget to tell the truth always, the author takes on this task to help her fellow females stand up against or let go of things-or in this case, men-that try to destroy and disrupt their lives. This book is about real issues that face women and family. It gives a perspective focusing on the ugliness that men don't want to confront: being the head of the household, keeping in-laws in check, being intimidated by successful women, if men would become successful in the things of God, they would know how to treat women right, loving and respecting her like royalty, and more. There are only two types of men: the faithful and the unfaithful. There's no in-between. And in this book, the author talks about purpose and addresses when to run for the hills. This is a personally intimate talk, woman to woman, heart to heart. She shares all the important concerns, from knowing who the man is, the type of man he is, the abuse and healing, and so much more. "One of my strongest attributes is the fact that I can take accountability for my failures. The people who fooled me who lied to get what they wanted, who didn't love me or could care less if I live or die, sometimes it hurt. At other times I avoided the obvious so I didn't have to deal with it, hoping that it would go away, but it doesn't. Confession will destroy pride and humble you so you can help others not to make the same mistakes," says Hall as she explains the reason she wrote this book. Women Give Men Too Much Power aims to help, enlighten, uplift, inspire, heal, and move others.
