Synopsis

In "A Diary Kept by Mrs. R. C. Germon," Maria Germon presents a poignant and intricately woven narrative that offers a unique glimpse into the domestic and social life of early 20th-century women. The literary style combines lyrical prose with a keen observational eye, capturing the nuances of everyday experiences while reflecting larger societal shifts. Through the intimate lens of Mrs. Germon'Äôs diary entries, the reader is drawn into her world, where personal struggles intermingle with broader themes of identity, resilience, and the evolving role of women during a time of significant cultural transformation. Maria Germon, a dedicated chronicler of women's voices, draws on her own rich heritage and personal experiences to inform her writing. Her passionate commitment to unveiling the complexities of women's lives stems from her background in feminist literature and her academic pursuits in social history. This deep-rooted understanding of women's temporal contexts enriches her portrayal of Mrs. Germon'Äôs reflections, making the diary not only a personal account but also a historical document that resonates with contemporary audiences. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in feminist literature, historical narratives, or the personal experiences of women in a transformative era. Germon'Äôs insightful prose not only illuminates the past but also invites readers to reflect on the enduring impact of personal stories in shaping collective memory.

    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.

    An excellent narrative is remembered by everyone. Regardless of the subject matter, good tales stick with us, whether we hear them on the radio, read about them in the newspaper, or watch them unfold on live television. A good story can be pretty compelling when recounted by a great storyteller. Effective storytellers can captivate their audience, guide them in whichever direction they need, and leave listeners/readers with new information to absorb and a value to carry with them.There's an old adage that people who tell stories are the ones who dominate the world. Whether you're pitching an investor, conducting a meeting, or introducing a new initiative, storytelling should be at the heart of everything you do as a team. Even a phone chat with a potential client entails some form of narrative. You may connect with customers, engage with colleagues, and even start a movement by using the power of storytelling.People often believe that learning a lesson through observation is less painful than learning through experience. When we share and embrace our failures, we assist others in overcoming their own challenges. The story can invest a concept with meaning and emotions in a way that plain writing cannot. People are drawn to stories because they can grasp a concrete object. Stories elicit emotions and motivate people to act.Speeches, presentations, workshops, and even board meetings can all benefit from the use of storytelling. Don't forget about it; it's been one of humanity's most valuable abilities since the dawn of communication.

    At the time of her first journey from Southampton to N.Y. City, RMS Titanic hit an iceberg and died in the North Atlantic Ocean on April fifteenth, 1912. An overall of 2,224 guests and team were reported to have been on board when the ship sank, making it one of the absolute worst single ship catastrophes and the absolute worst peacetime superliner or cruise liner sinking to date. As a result of the general public's interest in the after-effects, the mishap has acted as a structure for the category of catastrophe movies. 
    The RMS Titanic was the second of 3 Olympic-class ocean liners run by the White Star Line when she began service in the year 1912. Harland & Wolff shipyard in Belfast produced her. That mishap said the life of the shipyard's Chief Naval Designer, Thomas Andrews.

    This program is read by read by Sura Siu with an exclusive note written and read by the author.One of TIME and Oprah Daily's Most Anticipated Books of 2025“Siu's measured, compassionate delivery honors Nguyen's story, which balances the raw emotion of trauma with the strength of survival.”—AudioFile"Amanda’s story—innovatively told by versions of herself at different ages—underscores the lasting power of speaking your truth, building a movement, and never losing sight of your dreams.” —Melinda French Gates"In Saving Five, Amanda Nguyen shows us how to reclaim the full spectrum of our lives, replete with pain, fury, creativity, and recovered dreams.” —Chanel Miller, author of Know My NameA brave and imaginative memoir by the Nobel Peace Prize nominee Amanda Nguyen, detailing her healing journey and groundbreaking activism in the aftermath of her rape at Harvard.In 2013, the trajectory of Amanda Nguyen’s life was changed forever when she was raped at Harvard.Determined to not let her assault derail her goal of joining NASA after graduation, Nguyen opted for her rape kit to be filed under “Jane Doe.” But she was shocked to learn her choice to stay anonymous gave her only six months to take action before the state destroyed her kit, rendering any future legal action impossible. Nguyen knew then that she had two options: surrender to a law that effectively denied her justice, or fight for a change—not only for herself but for survivors everywhere.A heart-wrenching memoir of survival and hope, Saving Five boldly braids the story of Nguyen’s activism—which resulted in Congress’s unanimous passage of the Sexual Assault Survivors’ Rights Act in 2016—with a second, beautifully imagined adventure, of Nguyen's younger selves as they—at ages five, fifteen, twenty-two, and thirty—navigate through dramatic incarnations of the emotional stages of her path toward healing, not only from her rape but from the violent turmoil of her childhood. The result is a groundbreaking work that seamlessly blends memoir with a moving journey toward acceptance and hope, forging a path ahead that is as inspiring as it is instructive.From one of the most influential activists (and now astronauts) of her time, Saving Five is at once a tribute to resilience, a celebration of healing through action, and a resounding cry to change the world. A Macmillan Audio production from AUWA Books.
