  Khristi Lauren Adams's faith was first shaped by her experiences as a Black girl--learning about Scripture from her grandmother, Mama Hattie; "playing church" with her seven cousins over summer vacation; and grieving the murder of her sixteen-year-old friend when she was just fifteen. 
   
  In Womanish Theology, Adams reflects on those experiences, inviting readers to learn from a new perspective and guiding them to a deeper understanding of their own spirituality. 
   
  This groundbreaking book introduces a new branch of theological thought Adams calls womanish, as a play on the womanist tradition (the theology of Black womanhood). "Womanish," remembers Adams, is a term Black mothers used for young girls as they grew more interested in doing grown-up things. Adams draws on her own life story as well as the life stories of other Black girls to explore theological concepts such as Scripture, theodicy, salvation, prayer, neighborly love, and the image of God. 
   
  Through this journey, readers will learn that theology is for everyone and that the whole community of God can learn from the spiritual insights of Black girls.

  Disclaimer: This is NOT the Official Book, but a Summary! Also Please Note that this does NOT accompany the official book. 
  Dive into the moving and provocative recapitulation of "I'm Glad My Mom Died", a memoir filled with gut-wrenching honesty and remarkable wit. Authored by Jennette McCurdy, celebrated star of popular shows like iCarly and Sam & Cat, this work recounts her battles with the dark side of childhood stardom— from grappling with eating disorders and addiction, to navigating the tempestuous relationship with her demanding mother, and finally discovering her path to personal freedom. 
  At a tender age of six, Jennette McCurdy was thrust into the limelight, auditioning for roles she barely understood, all to fulfill her mother's ambitious dream of seeing her daughter shine on screen. The young star's life was dictated by what her mother termed as 'calorie management', forcing her into extreme dietary practices, checking her weight with unhealthy frequency, and constantly battling self-image issues. Subjected to severe parental control, including intrusive practices like sharing her personal diaries and emails, and even overseeing her bathing until she was sixteen, Jennette's life was anything but normal. 
  In this condensed version of her memoir, journey with Jennette as she learns to challenge her mother's influence, confront her issues, and reclaim control of her life. This summary book presents a distilled, yet potent exploration of a child star's challenging journey to self-liberation. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a reminder that it's never too late to rewrite your own story.

  Reconstructing the Dreamland -...

  The 1921 Tulsa Race Riot was the country's bloodiest civil disturbance of the century. Thirty city blocks were burned to the ground, perhaps 150 died, and the prosperous black community of Greenwood, Oklahoma, was turned to rubble.Alfred L. Brophy draws on his own extensive research into contemporary accounts and court documents to chronicle this devastating riot, showing how and why the rule of law quickly eroded. Brophy shines his lights on mob violence and racism run amok, both on the night of the riot and the following morning. Equally important, he shows how the city government and police not only permitted looting, shootings, and the burning of Greenwood, but actively participated in it by deputizing white citizens haphazardly, giving out guns and badges, or sending men to arm themselves. Likewise, the National Guard acted unconstitutionally, arresting every black resident they found, leaving property vulnerable to the white mob.Brophy's stark narrative concludes with a discussion of reparations for victims of the riot through lawsuits and legislative action. That case has implications for other reparations movements, including reparations for slavery. This updated edition features a new foreword by Randall Kennedy.
