Описание: From a journalist on the frontlines of the Students for Fair Admission (SFFA) v. Harvard case comes a probing examination of affirmative action, the false narrative of American meritocracy, and the attack on Asian American excellence with its far-reaching implications--from seedy test-prep centers to gleaming gifted-and-talented magnet schools, to top colleges and elite business, media, and political positions across America

The Asian American minority, transcending its impoverished history, has quietly assumed mastery of the nations technical and intellectual machinery and become essential to the workforce that makes modern American life possible. Yet, theyve been forced to do so in the face of policy proposals--written in the name of diversity--that serve to exclude them from the upper ranks of the elite.

In An Inconvenient Minority, journalist Kenny Xu, who has covered the sensational Students for Fair Admission (SFFA) v. Harvard case since its inception, traces White Americas longstanding unease about a minority potentially upending them in the race for group status. Their policy proposals, such as eliminating standardized testing, doling out racial preferences to non-Asian minorities, inflaming anti-Asian stereotypes, and lumping Asians into privileged categories despite their deprived historical experiences have forced Asian Americans to fight back--a battle given a boots-on-the-ground perspective here.

Going beyond the Harvard case, Xu unearths the skewed logic that has had ripple effects throughout the US, from Governor Bill de Blasios attempted makeover of the New York City Specialized School programs to the battle over diversity quotas in Googles and Facebooks progressive epicenters, to the rise of Asian American political activism in response to unfair perceptions and admission practices.

For too long, Asian Americans have stood in the shadows, operating the machinery in the back. But their time is now. An Inconvenient Minority chronicles the political and economic repression and renaissance of a long ignored racial identity group--and how they are central to reversing Americas cultural decline and preserving the dynamism of the free world.

Описание: In this highly anticipated sequel to New York Times bestselling and Caldecott Honorwinning author Tony DiTerlizzi's Kenny and the Dragon, Kenny must cope with many changes in his lifeincluding the fear that he's losing his best friend.

What can come between two best friends?

Time has passed since Kenny Rabbit's last adventure with his best friend, the legendary dragon Grahame, and a lot has changed in the sleepy village of Roundbrook.

For starters, Kenny has a whole litter of baby sisters. His friends are at different schools and Sir George is off adventuring.

At least Kenny still has his very best friend, Grahame. That's before Dante arrives.

Dante is a legendary manticore and an old friend of Grahame's. Old friends spend a lot of time catching up. And that catching up does not involve Kenny.

But there's a Witch to defeat, a pal to rescue, and a mysterious book to unlock.

And those are quests for best friends, not old friends. Right?
