Описание: This study uses the Nuwaubian movement to examine Pan-Africanism and black nationalism in the post-civil rights era. The author places the movement within the context of the history, culture, and tradition of the African diaspora and argues that the movement represents contemporary efforts of African descendants to resist oppression.

Описание: In the context of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Livingstone declaration, and the UN Social Protection Floor, this book deals jointly with multidimensional child poverty and social protection in Central and Western Africa. It focuses both on extent and types of social protection coverage and assesses various child poverty trends in the region. More importantly, it looks at social protection to prevent and address the consequences of child poverty.

Child poverty is distinct, conceptually, and different, quantitatively, from adult poverty. It requires its own independent measurement--otherwise half of the population in developing countries may be unaccounted for when assessing poverty reduction. This book posits that child poverty should be measured based on constitutive rights of poverty, using a multidimensional approach. The argument is supported by chapters actually applying and expanding this approach. In addition, the case is made that the underlying drivers of child poverty are inequality, lack of access to basic social services, and the presence of families without any type of social protection. As a result, the case for social protection in contributing to reduce and eliminate child protection and its consequences is made.

Poverty reduction has been high on the international agenda since the start of the millennium. First as part of the MDGs and now included in the SDGs. However, in spite of a decline in the incidence of child poverty, the number of poor children is harder to reduce due to population dynamics. As a result, concomitant problems such as the increasing number of child brides, unregulated/dangerous migration, unabated child trafficking, etc. remain intractable. Understanding the root causes of child poverty and its characteristics in Central and Western Africa is fundamental to designing innovative ways to address it. It is also important to map the interventions, describe the practices, appreciate the challenges, recognize the limitations, and highlight the contributions of social protection and its role in dealing with child poverty. No practical policy recommendations can be devised without this knowledge.

Описание: Mandi's Miracle culminates the Part II of The Miracle Trilogy(R). It is set during the 1960s in Mississippi during the civil rights era and tells of one girl's struggle through personal adversity and hardship in order to persevere to carry out the "secret" told to her by her mentor and friend, Francine. Mandi Watkins is a bright, young girl who comes from a tightly knit black American family full of love and pride, whose faith is instantly tested when Mandi is suddenly struck with cancer at a tender age. Despite all the family's efforts to save Mandi's life, her health worsens to the point where she's eventually told that she has only five months to live. Overcome with grief, fear and bitter panic, Mandi's mother, Thelma, who is also an enthralling character in the series, goes to her employer, Francine, in desperation to help save her child. Francine, upon learning this, takes on the proposition, offering basic and universal laws to conquer the challenge in the same way she was mentored years before. Slowly, as Mandi uses the healing principles, Mandi and her mother ¬Thelma commend Francine enormously for her e orts, but in response, all Francine says is: "If you really want to thank me, share this information with someone else. Just pay it forward." Attentive to her request, Mandi promises to do so, and grows up from her teenage years into adulthood, in a search to fulfill her mentor's request, which happens in a most unlikely way. Experience a powerful story that has received critical acclaim regarding the God-given power of thought, intention, love, happiness and truth. This is a book that will not only change your life, but inspire the lives of those you love and care about. It's truly a must-read
