Through a collection and analysis of carefully selected readings, Rethinking Debatable Moments in the Civil Rights Movement: Learning for the Present Moment highlights particular issues, tensions, and dynamics within the Civil Rights Movement. The text asks pointed questions regarding debatable moments of the Civil Rights Movement in order to encourage critical study, stimulate thinking about possible consequences then and now, seek answers or refine the questions, and seek direction for the present moment.
The readings are organized in chapters according to the debatable moments: 1) Should the NAACP have pursued the case of Claudette Colvin in combating bus segregation in Montgomery?; 2) Should Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., have joined the Freedom Riders when invited to do so in 1961?; 3) Should children have been allowed to participate in the Birmingham Campaign protests in 1963?; 4) Should SNCC's John Lewis have agreed to amend his speech in the 1963 March on Washington?; and 5) Should Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., have turned the marchers around at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma after Bloody Sunday? General and chapter introductions and an epilogue explore the context, the key players, the issues, the nature of the crisis, and the consequences and implications of each debatable moment.
Rethinking Debatable Moments in the Civil Rights Movement is an excellent supplementary text for courses in anthropology, sociology, black studies, and related social science disciplines.

Описание: I was healthy and smart with no addictions that were detrimental to my health and well being . My life was to be turned around 360 degrees and I was to experience a path of life I never ever thought I would all of this because one day a bird flew over me .
A young man grows up into a dysfunctional family and his surroundings and environments growing up have been very unhappy and frightening for him and fear has been a huge part of his life both physically and psychologically. He grows up afraid and scared of his own shadow and fear takes over his mind and body. As he grows older he finds he is attracted to the same sex as him which scares him beyond belief because he has been brought up to understand that homosexuality is not allowed within his community or family. What follows is pure hell for him because he represses his own mind and body from a healthy and happy quality of life to please other people and forgets his own health and well being as a human being with needs.
