Sinossi

W.E.B. Du Bois's "Du Bois: Essays" is a compelling collection that delves into the complexities of race, identity, and sociology in America. The essays are characterized by Du Bois's incisive prose and a blend of personal narrative and rigorous academic analysis, offering readers profound insights into the African American experience during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His literary style is marked by eloquence and a keen observational acumen, positioning him as a pioneer of sociological thought and an early voice of the civil rights movement. Presented in a historical context where race relations were tumultuous, Du Bois'Äôs work critically examines the societal structures that perpetuate inequality and injustice. W.E.B. Du Bois, an esteemed sociologist, historian, and civil rights activist, played a pivotal role in shaping African American identity and thought. A graduate of Fisk University and Harvard, he became the first African American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1895. His extensive work as a co-founder of the NAACP and editor of The Crisis reflects a commitment not only to social justice but also to the empowerment of African Americans through education and advocacy, infusing his essays with urgency and purpose. "Du Bois: Essays" is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the historical and socio-political landscape of race in America. For students, scholars, and general readers alike, Du Bois's eloquent discourse invites reflection on contemporary issues that resonate to this day, making it a timeless contribution to American literature and social thought.

    Transforming Race Conversations...

    A guide to supporting our emergence from the tight grip of race discomfort. 
     
     
     
    If we are to address the injustice of racism, we need to have the "race conversation." All too often, however, attempts at this conversation are met with silence, denial, anger, or hate. This is largely because the construct of race resides not only in our minds, but principally in the body. In order to have productive conversations about race and racism, a paradigm shift is needed—one which will empower us to remain present and embodied, rather than constricted with fear, regardless of our racial identities. 
     
     
     
    Here, psychotherapist Eugene Ellis explores what is needed for this bodily shift to occur as he unpacks the visceral experience of the race conversation. He offers a trauma-informed, neurophysiological approach that emphasizes resourcing, body awareness, mindfulness, and healing. Transforming Race Conversations is essential for therapy practitioners as well as anyone looking to engage more effectively in the ongoing dialogue around race.

    Originally published in 1885. 
    The Prehistoric World; or, Vanished Races, by E.A. Allen 
    We are told that in Tartary, each native makes the iron he needs, just as every household would make its own bread. The furnace is a very small affair, not holding more than three pounds of ore. This is filled with ore and charcoal. The bellows are used, and after the charcoal is all burned out, the result is a small piece of spongy iron, which needs only repeated heating and hammering to be made serviceable. 
    Primitive furnaces, on a somewhat larger scale, have been discovered in Switzerland. Here, the excavation was made in the side of a hill, and a rude, dome-shaped chimney built over it. We must not forget that our task ends where the historian's begins. The use of iron did not long precede history, so we have but little to describe as to the customs and manners of life during the prehistoric Iron Age.
