A breakdown of the economic and social injustices facing Black people and other marginalized citizens, inspired by political activist Kimberly Jones’s viral video “How Can We Win” “So if I played four hundred rounds of Monopoly with you and I had to play and give you every dime that I made, and then for fifty years, every time that I played, if you didn’t like what I did, you got to burn it like they did in Tulsa and like they did in Rosewood, how can you win? How can you win?” When Kimberly Jones declared these words amid the protests spurred by the murder of George Floyd, she gave a history lesson that in just over six minutes captured the economic struggles of Black people in America. Within days the video had been viewed by millions of people around the world, riveted by Jones’s damning—and stunningly succinct—analysis of the enduring disparities Black Americans face. In How We Can Win, Jones delves into the impacts of systemic racism and reveals how her formative years in Chicago gave birth to a lifelong devotion to justice. Here, in a vital expansion of her declaration, she calls for Reconstruction 2.0, a multilayered plan to reclaim economic and social restitutions—those restitutions promised with emancipation but blocked, again and again, for more than 150 years. And, most of all, Jones delivers strategies for how we can effect change as citizens and allies while nurturing ourselves—the most valuable asset we have—in the fight against a system that is still rigged.

FROM BEST SELLING AUTHOR KIMBERLY JONES-POTHIER AKA REAL TALK KIM If you want breakthrough, you have to break through! Most people struggle to assume the best of themselves. And their poor self-concept is only made worse by their past mistakes, poor choices, and failures. Kimberly has heard the inner voice that continually says, “You can’t.” And she’s learned how to shut it up. Known for telling it like it is, Real Talk Kim, as Jones-Pothier is known, challenges readers to stare inadequacy in the face and say, “Not today!” Exposing her own messes and failures, she leads readers on a journey to overcome the negative thinking, fear, loneliness, disappointment, and wrong view of self that have led to their feelings of inadequacy so they can walk in the fullness of God’s purpose for them. The enemy is always going to tell people what they can and cannot do. He’s always going to play into their fears and regrets. Jones-Pothier reveals the truths that will silence the accuser and empower readers to stop being ruled by their emotions, make choices from a place of confidence instead of doubt and insecurity, realize that God’s plan is bigger than their past, reject the labels others have placed on them, let God determine who they are, and stop being a victim and find the freedom to be themselves. Breakthroughs don’t come without a fight. Anyone who wants a breakthrough has to break through—they have to act. Providing practical tools that lead to victory, Shut Hell Up shows readers how to stop seeing themselves as inadequate and embrace who God says they are. When you feel not enough, God says I AM ENOUGH. This book will help you use what God says about you to fight negative self-talk and lies from the enemy.

Despite the appearance of political and military stability, Egypt may be standing at the edge of a precipice as the state remains grounded in rigid authoritarianism while the population, including a struggling civil society, readies itself to make the leap to democratization. This characterization has far-reaching implications for relations between citizens and the government, as well as Egypt's foreign affairs posture, particularly in the Middle East. State repression of civil, political, and religious actors; the ineffectual provision of social services; and two religious divides, between Coptic Christianity and Islam on the one hand, and secular and conservative Islamic traditions on the other, make for an incendiary domestic environment. The resulting over-reliance on security services to quash dissent could result in a population more amenable to less democratic methods of regime change and/or the development of stronger linkages between regional Islamist groups, whether they be political, militant, or some combination thereof. Global Security Watch—Egypt explores the historical background that created the current realities in Egypt and examines the players and events influencing the nation today. It concludes with a series of recommendations for the Egyptian political establishment, and for the American government, in the belief that meaningful political and policy changes in Egypt can lead to an improvement in human rights, democracy, justice, stability, and security for Egypt, and an improved partnership between Egypt and the United States.

This book, my friends, will share victories to uplift your spirit, educate your mind, and expand your knowledge. You see, much of our history was hidden, unknown, and destroyed, by those hoping it would never be discovered.

African American history consists of gold mines, owning land, vast creativity, and great strength. I will share original documents such as deeds, maps, vouchers, and the actual locations my grandfather and great-great-grandfather stood in, like the Emmanuel Church. My family history is a part of American history. In fact, American history is a part of world history, and I look forward to revealing valuable facts and timelines about a period of history worth knowing.

Praktikumsbericht / -arbeit aus dem Jahr 2016 im Fachbereich Soziale Arbeit / Sozialarbeit, Note: Bestanden, Hochschule Hannover, Veranstaltung: Praxis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Vereinbarkeit von kritischer Sozialarbeit mit Schulsozialarbeit erscheint zunächst utopisch. Die hier beschriebene Schule mit einem alternativen Schulsystem zeigt jedoch beispielhaft, dass es möglich ist an einer Schule kritische, selbstbestimmte Soziale Arbeit in der Praxis anzuwenden. Es ist besonders im sozialpädagogischen Arbeitsbereich bekannt, dass die A-Schule durch ihr besonderes Konzept einen Arbeitsbereich darstellt, der zunächst von Außen sehr „einfach“ scheint. So hat die Schule den Ruf, eines Selbstläufers, welcher auch dem Klientel zugeschrieben wird, dass man an der sogenannten „Eliteschule“ vorfindet. Übliche Probleme, wie sie an Regelschulen zu finden sind, treten hier nicht oder nur stark reduziert auf. Doch wird dies oft damit verwechselt, dass eine alternative Schule nicht zwingend weniger Probleme hat, als eine Regelschule, sich die Problemlagen und Bedürfnisse stattdessen bloß auf andere Bereiche verlagern. Ein Praktikum an der A-Schule verdeutlichte, dass die Schulsozialarbeit hier anders verortet ist, als es in Regelschulen der Fall ist. Die besonderen Strukturen der Schule, bringen besondere Aufgaben für die Schulsozialarbeit mit sich. Aber macht es das generell einfacher? Ist die Arbeit an einer Schule mit pädagogischen Grundmauern auch unmittelbar ein Ort der einfachen Schulsozialarbeit? Es stellt sich die Frage, ob Soziale Arbeit sich hier überhaupt noch als eigene Profession durchsetzen kann oder sie eher gezwungen ist, sich unterzuordnen, ist die A-Schule doch schon pädagogisch genug?! Im Laufe des Praktikums zeigten sich viele Arbeitsbereiche der sozialen Arbeit im Kontext der alternativen Schule. Es zeigte sie, wie die Schulsozialarbeit verortet ist, welche professionellen, sozialen und ökonomischen Interessen dahinterstehen und wie sie in Wechselwirkung zu ihrem Umfeld steht. Außerdem wurde in dem Praktikum deutlich, welche Eigenschaften Schulsozialarbeit mit sich bringen sollte, welche Rolle Belastungsfähigkeit und Ausgeglichenheit spielen und warum selbstkritische Reflexion aber auch Empathie einen großen Stellenwert haben.

At the age of 9, Ruth loved school. She didn't much care for the walk she had to make to get there every day, however, and didn't really enjoy the chores that she and her sisters had to do each day as well. Racial segregation was alive and well in those days and white Americans kept African Americans in a subordinate status by denying them equal access to public facilities, such as buses, theaters and restaurants. When allowed into auditoriums and theaters, blacks occupied separate sections. They also attended segregated schools and churches, like Ruth and her family. But this was how life was in 1933, at school, in the community and around the farm where she lived and played. Read her absorbing story here, to get a feel for what life was like in the United States not so very long ago.

Job 22:28 states, "Thou shalt also decree a thing and it shall be established unto thee and the light shall shine upon thy ways." This scripture is a powerful attestment to the power of spoken words, When we decree and declare according to God's Word, we are operating in our dominion authority and activating our power to establish God's will in the earth. This book reveals the importance of applying the biblical concept of decreeing and declaring to every area of our lives. God is constantly perfecting those things concerning us, however we have a part to play in this process. One of our major responsibilities, as people of faith, is to stand uncompromisingly upon God's word. No matter what we are faced with, we must say the same thing that God says about our situations. This book is designed to provide easy access to biblical declarations that can be utilized to speak life and truth over particular areas and situations that we face on a daily basis. When we are diligent to speak God's promises and not our problems, we will see the dark places of our lives illuminated. This book highlights the foundational truths found in the Bible and challenges us to Decide, Decree, and Declare according to its Holy Spirit-inspired instructions. Doing so allows the light of the Word to shine upon our ways!

FROM THE AUTHOR WHO'S BEEN FEATURED ON THE DOCTOR OZ SHOW, PREACHERS OF ATLANTA, CNN, NIGHTLINE, AND PRAISE IN THE PARK ATLANTA The pain you experience may not be your fault, but the healing is your responsibility. This book will help you understand that God sometimes allows our souls to be broken so our spirits can be saved. If you want to experience God's plan for your life, you need to stop speaking the enemy's lies. During times of brokenness or trauma, it's easy to believe this one season will define our entire lifetime. But that's not what God intends. He wants the crushing and the pain to produce the anointing that takes us to the next level--and He wants our words to line up with that belief. Though the pain we experience may not be our fault, the healing is our responsibility. And if we choose not to walk the difficult path toward healing, we will speak toxic words that wound others and keep us stuck in a cycle of heartache and defeat. In Hush Until You Heal, Real Talk Kim shows readers how God uses the brokenness the enemy meant for evil to lead us to victory. If we will trust Him, what could be the worst season of our lives will be turned into the best, because God works all things together for our good. In her trademark, authentic style, Real Talk Kim shares candidly from her own experiences, cautioning readers not to agree with the enemy's lies by speaking negative words over themselves or others. Instead, they must choose to hush until they heal so God can work in their hearts and bring healing, restoration, and breakthrough. One season doesn't have to define a lifetime. Jesus loves to use the worst pasts to create the best futures!

"Of all the impressionist painters who sought ways to represent and express the modern world, only Degas was consistently attracted to the world of horses and jockeys. He was captivated by the beauty, power, and grace of the horse in much the same way that he was fascinated by the agility of ballet dancers." "This beautiful book, the catalogue of an exhibition at the National Gallery of Art, discusses in detail the importance of the horse in Degas' work and includes reproductions of more than 120 of Degas' paintings, drawings, pastels, prints, and sculpture relating to the horse and racing."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The primary aims of this study were to examine acquired genetic and epigenetic changes that occur in individuals with increasing age and to determine how these changes are influenced by genetic/environmental factors. Acquired genetic changes were assessed by determining the frequency and chromosomal contents of spontaneously occurring micronuclei in identical and fraternal twins. A total of 115 individuals (48 twin pairs and 19 singletons) were evaluated, ranging in age from 7 to 85 years. As expected, micronuclei frequencies, which are indicative of genomic damage, significantly increased with age (p
