Описание: Journeys is a collection of poems written between 1974 and 2019. The poems are personal in nature and take readers on an interesting journey through time. Journeys represent the past, the present, and the future. This anthology is intended to captivate its readers by taking them on a journey that begins in the ghettos of Bull Bay, Jamaica, and ends up (for now) miles away in the creative capital of the world-Providence, Rhode Island. Journeys will captivate its readers by bringing the richness of one woman's desire to escape the ravages of poverty. Journeys delve deeply into love, hope, resilience, wanting, and everything in between. It has a rich Caribbean feel that lures readers to the exotic paradise island of Jamaica with white-sand beaches to the harsh realities that are not advertised (race, class, and violence). Journeys' highlight sheds light on issues of race, gender, and class among other social constructs. The book glimpses into the black woman's experience and her constant struggle and fight to use her voice and to be heard amidst the noise. Every poem in Journeys is sure to either soothe readers' soul or prick their social conscience to activism for social justice. Journeys will not disappoint readers. The poems are happy, sad, lonely, and hopeful. They draw from the poet's lived experiences as a young girl growing up on the island to that of a mother, wife, sister, friend, teacher, and legislator. Journeys will inspire readers everywhere. It will provide support, affirmation, guidance, consolation, and laughter. Journeys is a work of the heart and a timeless treasure that everyone should have in their collection.

Описание: Theo is a superhero-but, of course, only his mom knows that. Theo is also autistic. He is shy, unique, cool, and he doesn't like to be touched.
One day at the amusement park, he is waiting in line for the Ferris wheel with his mom when he meets Latoya. Latoya is also autistic. She is outgoing, active, and very friendly.
When the conductor of the Ferris wheel is in danger and no one knows what to do, Theo transforms into a superhero, only to find Latoya transforming too! It will take some quick thinking and a lot of courage for our superheroes to save the conductor.
Theo and Latoya prove that autism does not stop them from being friends, leaders, and good examples of overcoming challenges.

Описание:
Black communities have been making major contributions to Europe's social and cultural life and landscapes for centuries. However, their achievements largely remain unrecognized by the dominant societies, as their perspectives are excluded from traditional modes of marking public memory. For the first time in European history, leading Black scholars and activists examine this issue - with first-hand knowledge of the eight European capitals in which they live. Highlighting existing monuments, memorials, and urban markers they discuss collective narratives, outline community action, and introduce people and places relevant to Black European history, which continues to be obscured today.
