Описание: An approachable guide to being an informed, compassionate, and socially conscious person today--from discussions of race, gender, and sexual orientation to disability, class, and beyond--from critically acclaimed historian, educator, and author Blair Imani. "Blair answers the questions that so many of us are asking."--Layla F. Saad, author of Me and White Supremacy We live in a time where it has never been more important to be knowledgeable about a host of social issues, and to be confident and appropriate in how to talk about them. What's the best way to ask someone what their pronouns are? How do you talk about racism with someone who doesn't seem to get it? What is intersectionality, and why do you need to understand it? While it can seem intimidating or overwhelming to learn and talk about such issues, it's never been easier thanks to educator and historian Blair Imani, creator of the viral sensation Smarter in Seconds videos. Accessible to learners of all levels--from those just getting started on the journey to those already versed in social justice--Read This to Get Smarter covers a range of topics, including race, gender, class, disability, relationships, family, power dynamics, oppression, and beyond. This essential guide is a radical but warm and non-judgmental call to arms, structured in such a way that you can read it cover to cover or start with any topic you want to learn more about. With Blair Imani as your teacher, you'll "get smarter" in no time, and be equipped to intelligently and empathetically process, discuss, and educate others on the crucial issues we must tackle to achieve a liberated, equitable world.
The true story of Blood, Bullets and Bodies: a critical multimedia expos about the factors subverting the political will to act in the best interest of the poor, even when explicit just cause exists for such altruistic action to take place... Blood, Bullets and Bodies is a strange and paradoxical story that needs to be read as much as it needs to be told. It is a riveting story of sex, violence, political intrigue and survival by any means necessary. The book is a literary mirror that provides a revealing and frightening reflection for a self-destructing society to see itself profiled in the throes of its own possible demise. Sure to stir controversy, the new book contains a compelling rendition of the historical circumstances that have made crime and violence - bullets, blood and dead bodies - the number one problem in late 20th and early 21st century Jamaica. Despite the historic One Love Peace Concert and the Peace Truce in 1978, young gunmen seem to have gone wild ever since.
Using a variety of sophisticated methodological tools including literary sources, oral interviews, ethnographic studies and the lyrics of popular Reggae songs, Imani Tafari-Ama details the influences and implications of this violent social discourse for everyday performances of femininity and masculinity in Kingston's inner-city environment as well as in the wider Jamaican society.
Tafari-Ama's stated objective in publishing her thesis as a book is to separate fact from fiction in order to find real and enduring solutions that will reduce the distressing flood of blood, bullets and bodies that is overflowing the streets of Kingston. She hopes that by highlighting some of the facts and exposing much of the fiction about life below the poverty line, her provocative book will be a catalyst in motivating the political and community willpower necessary to find and implement the real-time solutions that she proposes in her suggested Options for Development.

Описание:
When readers first met Naomi in When I Was Broken, she was an expectant mother with a loving husband. It was her best friend, Angela, who had problems-but now the scales have tipped. Naomi's husband, Micah, dies in a tragic accident, leaving her lost, bitter, and alone.
Naomi doesn't put much stock in Christianity anymore, but when Micah makes a supernatural reappearance in her life, she's forced to rethink her faith. Suddenly, unfathomable decisions loom before her and, according to Micah, she has only three days to figure it all out.
Micah's reappearance seems like a chance to heal unresolved questions about life and God, but the salve itself requires a choice between this life and the next.
Is Naomi ready to turn her back on everything her life could be? Or can she accept the pain of moving on in the hope of something better to come? As she seeks answers from a God she thought had abandoned her, readers are propelled on a journey to the edges of heaven and back.
A spiritual reflection on the personal growth that comes from tragedy, Imani's third novel will resonate with fans of The Five People You Meet in Heaven and The Shack.
Polarity (positive, negative) is one of the most fundamental concepts in the system of language and there are many expressions that are sensitive to polarity. For example, any in English and wh-mo in Japanese appear in negative contexts, but not in positive contexts. While previous studies have shown that polarity-sensitive expressions are a general phenomenon in languages, it has also become clear that there are variations in polarity-sensitive expressions. This volume explores the variations in polarity-sensitive expressions through comparisons between Japanese and other languages, such as English, German, Spanish, and Old Japanese, and examines the environments and contexts in which polarity-sensitive expressions occur, as well as the types of (cross-linguistic) variation allowed. The value of the present volume lies in its inclusion of research papers inquiring into various types of polarity-sensitive expressions, such as negative-, positive-, and discourse-sensitive polarity items as well as their variations. The research indicates new directions for the study of polarity-sensitive expressions in the fields of syntax, semantics, pragmatics, historical linguistics, corpus linguistics and psycholinguistics.
