Book Description
Crow Party is a whimsical look at the behavior of crows, written in a tone of lighthearted annoyance with the many antics that we encounter with our mischievous feathered friends. The story shares snippets of advice in dealing with crows, from a lightly humorous perspective geared at teaching children observance of wildlife and respect for the creatures that have learned to share urban areas with us. From their "CAW, CAW, CAW" communications calling friends, family and enemies, to their artful ways of stealing food from farms, backyards and trash cans, it is a story of crows and their party-prone behavior, teaching about their interaction, communication and intelligence. Artist Nick McCarthy brilliantly brings crows in the book to life, capturing their antics with his dynamic pointillism technique. Written by a Planner and sustainability specialist, the book teaches children, in an enjoyable way, to look at nature more thoughtfully. Graphic design for the book layout professionally done by Jeanette Cappiello.

Before Jim Crow
Author: Jane Elizabeth Dailey
Publisher: Univ of North Carolina Press
ISBN: 9780807849019
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
Long before the Montgomery bus boycott ushered in the modern civil rights movement, black and white southerners struggled to forge interracial democracy in America. This innovative book examines the most successful interracial coalition in the nineteenth-century South, Virginia's Readjuster Party, and uncovers a surprising degree of fluidity in postemancipation southern politics. Melding social, cultural, and political history, Jane Dailey chronicles the Readjusters' efforts to foster political cooperation across the color line. She demonstrates that the power of racial rhetoric, and the divisiveness of racial politics, derived from the everyday experiences of individual Virginians_from their local encounters on the sidewalk, before the magistrate's bench, in the schoolroom. In the process, she reveals the power of black and white southerners to both create and resist new systems of racial discrimination. The story of the Readjusters shows how hard white southerners had to work to establish racial domination after emancipation, and how passionately black southerners fought each and every infringement of their rights as Americans.
