Beschreibung

Healing From Colonization addresses the profound and enduring harm caused by colonial practices, exploring pathways to recovery through the lenses of history and psychology. It delves into how colonialism extends beyond political domination, leaving deep psychological scars through forced assimilation and cultural disruption. A crucial insight is the importance of cultural revitalization, where reclaiming ancestral knowledge and traditions empowers communities to redefine their identities and resist cultural imperialism. The book argues that genuine healing requires a multifaceted approach, acknowledging historical trauma while actively dismantling colonial systems. It examines intergenerational trauma, highlighting how colonial violence has long-term consequences that affect successive generations. It also explores community-led initiatives focused on language preservation and cultural education. The book unfolds by first examining the psychological mechanisms of intergenerational trauma, then exploring cultural revitalization approaches, and finally analyzing decolonization strategies. By integrating historical context, cultural resurgence, and systemic interventions, Healing From Colonization offers a framework for holistic healing and provides concrete strategies for cultural revitalization and achieving Indigenous self-determination.

    Mental Balance is the ability to manage thoughts, emotions, and reactions under varying levels of pressure without losing clarity of vision or sound judgment. It represents an inner harmony between conscious reasoning and emotional response, enabling individuals to make rational decisions free from impulsiveness, rigidity, or confusion. Mental balance does not imply the absence of stress; rather, it reflects the capacity to handle stress with awareness and control, transforming it from a source of disturbance into organized energy that enhances performance and stability. In leadership, security, and emergency environments, mental balance serves as a foundational pillar for decisive action and professional crisis management.

    A New York Times bestselling and award-winning author presents a complex story about his coming-of-age journey as a Black boy, from the societal roots of trauma to finding joy. "If I had two wishes, it would be that D. Watkins spend an entire book writing through the terrifying wonder of Black boyness in America, and for every human to read and share this book. I am shaken. Black Boy Smile changed my relationship to writing and me."―Kiese Laymon, author of Heavy and winner of the Andrew Carnegie Medal   At nine years old, D. Watkins has three concerns in life: picking his dad’s Lotto numbers, keeping his Nikes free of creases, and being a man. Directly in his periphery is east Baltimore, a poverty-stricken city battling the height of the crack epidemic just hours from the nation’s capital. Watkins, like many boys around him, is thrust out of childhood and into a world where manhood means surviving by slinging crack on street corners and finding oneself on the right side of pistols. For thirty years, Watkins is forced to safeguard every moment of joy he experiences or risk losing himself entirely. Now, for the first time, Watkins harnesses these moments to tell the story of how he matured into the D. Watkins we know today—beloved author, college professor, editor-at-large of Salon.com, and devoted husband and father.Black Boy Smile lays bare Watkins’s relationship with his father and his brotherhood with the boys around him. He shares candid recollections of early assaults on his body and mind and reveals how he coped using stoic silence disguised as manhood. His harrowing pursuit of redemption, written in his signature street style, pinpoints how generational hardship, left raw and unnurtured, breeds toxic masculinity. Watkins discovers a love for books, is admitted to two graduate programs, meets with his future wife, an attorney—and finds true freedom in fatherhood.   Equally moving and liberating, Black Boy Smile is D. Watkins’s love letter to Black boys in concrete cities, a daring testimony that brings to life the contradictions, fears, and hopes of boys hurdling headfirst into adulthood. Black Boy Smile is a story proving that when we acknowledge the fallacies of our past, we can uncover the path toward self-discovery. Black Boy Smile is the story of a Black boy who healed.

    Breaking the Gender Code - Women...

    From the closing years of the nineteenth century, women received subtle—and not so subtle—messages that they shouldn't be in public. Or, if they were, that they were not safe. Breaking the Gender Code tells the story of both this danger narrative and the resistance to it. 
     
     
     
    Historian Georgina Hickey investigates challenges to the code of urban gender segregation in the twentieth century, focusing on organized advocacy to make the public spaces of American cities accessible to women. She traces waves of activism from the Progressive Era, with its calls for public restrooms, safe and accessible transportation, and public accommodations, through and beyond second-wave feminism, and its focus on the creation of alternative, women-only spaces and extensive anti-violence efforts. In doing so, Hickey explores how gender segregation intertwined with other systems of social control, as well as how class, race, and sexuality shaped activists' agendas and women's experiences of urban space. Drawing connections between the vulnerability of women in public spaces, real and presumed, and contemporary debates surrounding rape culture, bathroom bills, and domestic violence, Hickey unveils both the strikingly successful and the incomplete initiatives of activists who worked to open up public space to women.
