Brielle Adebayo is fully content teaching at a New York City public school and taking annual summer vacations with her mother to Martha's Vineyard.

Distraught by all the secrets her mother kept, Brielle is further left spinning when the Ọlọrọ Ilé Royal Council brings up an old edict that states she must marry before her coronation, or the crown will pass to another.

Book Synopsis Making and Unmaking Public Health in Africa by : Ruth J. Prince
Download or read book Making and Unmaking Public Health in Africa written by Ruth J. Prince and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-15 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa has emerged as a prime arena of global health interventions that focus on particular diseases and health emergencies. These are framed increasingly in terms of international concerns about security, human rights, and humanitarian crisis. This presents a stark contrast to the 1960s and ‘70s, when many newly independent African governments pursued the vision of public health “for all,” of comprehensive health care services directed by the state with support from foreign donors. These initiatives often failed, undermined by international politics, structural adjustment, and neoliberal policies, and by African states themselves. Yet their traces remain in contemporary expectations of and yearnings for a more robust public health. This volume explores how medical professionals and patients, government officials, and ordinary citizens approach questions of public health as they navigate contemporary landscapes of NGOs and transnational projects, faltering state services, and expanding privatization. Its contributors analyze the relations between the public and the private providers of public health, from the state to new global biopolitical formations of political institutions, markets, human populations, and health. Tensions and ambiguities animate these complex relationships, suggesting that the question of what public health actually is in Africa cannot be taken for granted. Offering historical and ethnographic analyses, the volume develops an anthropology of public health in Africa. Contributors:Hannah Brown, P. Wenzel Geissler, Murray Last, Rebecca Marsland, Lotte Meinert, Benson A. Mulemi, Ruth J. Prince, Noémi Tousignant, and Susan Reynolds Whyte
Book Synopsis The Prince of Jockeys by : Pellom McDanielsIII
Download or read book The Prince of Jockeys written by Pellom McDanielsIII and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isaac Burns Murphy (1861–1896) was one of the most dynamic jockeys of his era. Still considered one of the finest riders of all time, Murphy was the first jockey to win the Kentucky Derby three times, and his 44 percent win record remains unmatched. Despite his success, Murphy was pushed out of Thoroughbred racing when African American jockeys were forced off the track, and he died in obscurity. In The Prince of Jockeys: The Life of Isaac Burns Murphy, author Pellom McDaniels III offers the first definitive biography of this celebrated athlete, whose life spanned the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the adoption of Jim Crow legislation. Despite the obstacles he faced, Murphy became an important figure—not just in sports, but in the social, political, and cultural consciousness of African Americans. Drawing from legal documents, census data, and newspapers, this comprehensive profile explores how Murphy epitomized the rise of the black middle class and contributed to the construction of popular notions about African American identity, community, and citizenship during his lifetime.

Book Synopsis The Merchant Prince of Black Chicago by : Robert E. Weems Jr.
Download or read book The Merchant Prince of Black Chicago written by Robert E. Weems Jr. and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2020-03-09 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born to enslaved parents, Anthony Overton became one of the leading African American entrepreneurs of the twentieth century. Overton's Chicago-based empire ranged from personal care products and media properties to insurance and finance. Yet, despite success and acclaim as the first business figure to win the NAACP's Spingarn Medal, Overton remains an enigma. Robert E. Weems Jr. restores Overton to his rightful place in American business history. Dispelling stubborn myths, he traces Overton's rise from mentorship by Booker T. Washington, through early failures, to a fateful move to Chicago in 1911. There, Overton started a popular magazine aimed at African American women that helped him dramatically grow his cosmetics firm. Overton went on to become the first African American to head a major business conglomerate, only to lose significant parts of his businesses—and his public persona as ”the merchant prince of his race”—in the Depression, before rebounding once again in the early 1940s. Revealing and panoramic, The Merchant Prince of Black Chicago weaves the fascinating life story of an African American trailblazer through the eventful history of his times.

It is time to break through the cold glass wall of our silent culture and simply TELL THE TRUTH!" - Princess Fumi Hancock, DNP., PMHNP-BC, CNP. "My name is Abdul Rahman. Don't let that scare you.

We are the grandparents of a new writer, a philosopher and an avid thinker. Ever since this prodigy was born into our family by our single-mother daughter, we did not realize that God blessed our family with this genius until he completed decided to continue his studies in Psychology. However, his interactions with us, his grandparents and with other siblings in his father's house clearly depict that his IQ is exceptionally high. It is our pleasure to recommend this first work of Oluwadamilola Abdul Rahman, Dami for short, as a good writer to everyone eager to see how easy it is to develop raw psychology, after going through intrigues in a polygamous family." - Prince and Princess Theophilus and Eunice Ogunleye.
