  Being Black in America's Schools...

  In a polarizing and racially divided America, what do children of color learn about themselves before they even go to school? How do they see themselves and is that image only exacerbated by spending twelve years in a public education system that perpetuates negative stereotypes? Brian Rashad Fuller personally knows that the impact of low expectations can be devastating. He aims to make a difference in this humanizing and very personal portrayal of what it means to be Black in America's schools. 
   
   
   
  As a Black man who has spent his life as a student and an educator, Brian shares his own story of navigating the world, overcoming his family struggles, and eventually entering an educational system that he believes is inherently racist, damaging, and disserving. He exposes the challenges Black students face and offers a firsthand account of the emotional and psychological impact made by teachers, administrators, policies, practices, lessons, and student interactions. Most Americans are looking for answers on how to improve our education system—as illustrated by the critical race theory debate—but have not fully understood the lived Black experience, until now. With powerful insight into a thoroughly American institution, Brian offers present-day solutions, and liberating hope, for a centuries-long issue, as well as a galvanizing and radical step forward.

  The New Gospel of Wealth - With...

  Andrew Carnegie's "The Gospel of Wealth," published in 1889, presents his philosophy on philanthropy and how wealth should be managed by the rich. It became a seminal text on philanthropy, influencing many wealthy individuals to consider how their money could benefit society rather than just accumulating for its own sake. However, Carnegie's views also received criticism for promoting a form of paternalism and for not addressing the root causes of poverty or the structural inequalities in society. 
  "The New Gospel of Wealth" includes thoughts on modernizing the text via a 2019 essay by Frank Marcopolos, written while occupied as an envoy of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. 
  Frank Marcopolos now lives in Florida with his dog, Sparky.
