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:
This is a story about a young man who lives alone and the lives life of isolation and fear of himself and the world around him. He cannot find peace and contentment in his life something he craves yet fear's at the same time. Out of the blue while cleaning his attic he comes across a Ouija board something he instinctively associates with evil but a board he is fascinated at the same time.
Through the Ouija board he contacts "people" and a world he becomes to have to no control over as his body becomes possessed by something or somebody he thinks is a "friend".
Very strange and disturbing and paranormal things start happening to the young man as his communication with the Ouija board gets far more intense and he gets taken into a world he has no control over and finds he is helpless to stop his body being over and used to commit evil acts towards his gay community.
He has to find a way to save his own soul by coming face to face with evil itself and asking God to save his soul from the very claws of the evil.
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.
