Book Description
Here We Go Ladies is a collection of jokes and anecdotes I have gathered and used over my 20 years of umpiring. Some of them are jokes from ladies I have umpired. I find a joke or two can be encouraging to a player or team that is down. This collection of jokes as well as the t-shirts with witty sayings that I wear help lighten the atmosphere of the games and tournaments I umpire. I hope you enjoy them as much as the players and I have over the years.

Nice White Ladies
Author: JESSIE. DANIELS
Publisher: Seal Press
ISBN: 9781541675865
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
An acclaimed expert illuminates the distinctive role that white women play in perpetuating racism, and how they can work to fight it In a nation deeply divided by race, the "Karens" of the world are easy to villainize. But in Nice White Ladies, Jessie Daniels addresses the unintended complicity of even well-meaning white women. She reveals how their everyday choices harm communities of color. White mothers, still expected to be the primary parents, too often uncritically choose to send their kids to the "best" schools, collectively leading to a return to segregation. She addresses a feminism that pushes women of color aside, and a wellness industry that insulates white women in a bubble of their own privilege. Daniels then charts a better path forward. She looks to the white women who fight neo-Nazis online and in the streets, and who challenge all-white spaces from workplaces to schools to neighborhoods. In the end, she shows how her fellow white women can work toward true equality for all.
