My Grandmother's Hands
Author: Resmaa Menakem
Publisher: Central Recovery Press
ISBN: 1942094485
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
A NATIONAL BESTSELLER "My Grandmother's Hands will change the direction of the movement for racial justice."— Robin DiAngelo, New York Times bestselling author of White Fragility In this groundbreaking book, therapist Resmaa Menakem examines the damage caused by racism in America from the perspective of trauma and body-centered psychology. The body is where our instincts reside and where we fight, flee, or freeze, and it endures the trauma inflicted by the ills that plague society. Menakem argues this destruction will continue until Americans learn to heal the generational anguish of white supremacy, which is deeply embedded in all our bodies. Our collective agony doesn't just affect African Americans. White Americans suffer their own secondary trauma as well. So do blue Americans—our police. My Grandmother's Hands is a call to action for all of us to recognize that racism is not only about the head, but about the body, and introduces an alternative view of what we can do to grow beyond our entrenched racialized divide. Paves the way for a new, body-centered understanding of white supremacy—how it is literally in our blood and our nervous system. Offers a step-by-step healing process based on the latest neuroscience and somatic healing methods, in addition to incisive social commentary. Resmaa Menakem, MSW, LICSW, is a therapist with decades of experience currently in private practice in Minneapolis, MN, specializing in trauma, body-centered psychotherapy, and violence prevention. He has appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show and Dr. Phil as an expert on conflict and violence. Menakem has studied with bestselling authors Dr. David Schnarch (Passionate Marriage) and Dr. Bessel van der Kolk (The Body Keeps the Score). He also trained at Peter Levine's Somatic Experiencing Trauma Institute.

Pages : 216
Book Description
Discover a world of power, filth and depravity in the steamy and thrilling New York Knights series. The saga continues with this angsty best friend's little sister romance. I had to leave. I had no choice. I loved her too much to stay. Carys has always owned my heart and loving her was the best part of my life...until I discovered the truth, realizing that the only way to keep her safe was to let her go. I thought it would become easier, that my love for her would eventually fade. But I was wrong. The longer I stayed away, the more it hurt to be apart from her. It's probably selfish and reckless, but I want her back. I need her more than I need air to breathe. Without her I'm nothing but a broken soul. Problem is she's already moved on, started a new life without me. But I've never shied away from a challenge, and there's nothing I won't do to prove to her that she's still mine. She's always been mine. This is book two in the New York Knights series with interlinking storylines. Fallen Night shouldn't be read as a standalone and is the continuation of a five book series about the alpha protectors of Hart Corporation.

Stumps in the Outfield
Author: Anthony N. Botta
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1483410757
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Once upon a time, children were allowed to play outside and explore the world. Family dinners were the rule, not the exception. Rock and roll was new, exciting, and a little dangerous. This may sound like the setting of an old movie, but for author Anthony N. Botta it formed the background of his life as he grew up in a large Italian family in a New York City borough. In Stumps in the Outfield, he narrates his life story, beginning with his birth in 1952. He shares how, as a young boy he didn't understand the war or the social revolutions about to take place. All he knew was his love of baseball, music, and his family. Botta tells a story filled with first crushes, dreams, and bitter disappointments. From his memories of the nuns of his school to his early marriage and subsequent divorce, Botta offers a rich account of a time many wish they knew. Witty and sometimes heartbreaking, this memoir captures and celebrates the joy, drama, and trauma of a generation of change.
