Book Description
SHE’S A TOUGH CRIME REPORTER IN A LEAGUE OF HEAVY HITTERS. BUT THAT’S OKAY— SHE KNOWS HOW TO PLAY HARDBALL … Jessica James has a nose for a good story, but she isn’t sure how much she likes the story she’s getting from her mother’s charming, handsome new beau with the improbable name of Charlie Browne. Especially since the tale is attached to the Hare—a stolen painting that is now hidden under Jesse’s own bed. Jesse’s investigation into Charlie's background turns up a hole big enough to smuggle the Mona Lisa through, which has her worried about her romantic, not-altogether-practical mom. And for good reason—in a few short days, Kate James has gotten herself entangled in art theft, bashed over the head by a burglar, and involved in a tête-à-tête with a murderer. Now Jesse must crack a stolen art ring and solve two murders—one forty years old and one all too recent—before the killer paints another masterpiece in scarlet.

Racism and English Football
Author: Daniel Burdsey
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100021009X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
Racism and English Football: For Club and Country analyses the contemporary manifestations, outcomes and implications of the fractious relationship between English professional football and race. Racism, we were told, had disappeared from English football. It was relegated to a distant past, and displaced onto other European countries. When its appearance could not be denied, it was said to have reappeared. This book reveals that this was not true. Racism did not go away and did not return. It was here all along. The book argues that racism is firmly embedded and historically rooted in the game’s structures, cultures and institutions, and operates as a form of systemic discrimination. It addresses the ways that racism has tainted English football, and the manner in which football has, in turn, influenced racial meanings and formations in wider society. Equally, it explores how football has facilitated forms of occupational multiculture, black player activism and progressive fan politics that resist divisive social phenomena and offer a degree of hope for an alternative future. Focusing on a diverse range of topics, in men’s and women’s football, at club and international level, Racism and English Football extends and expands our knowledge of how racism occurs and, critically, how it can be challenged. This is an essential read for scholars and students working on race, ethnicity, sport and popular culture, together with those interested in the social and organisational dynamics of English professional football more generally.

Staging Strangers
Author: Barry Freeman
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0773549544
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
Twenty-first-century media and political discourse sometimes makes "strangers" - refugees, immigrants, minorities - the scapegoats for social and economic disorder. In this heated climate, theatre has the potential to promote greater compassion and empathy for outsiders. A study of cultural difference in contemporary Canadian theatre, Staging Strangers considers how theatre facilitates an understanding of distant places and issues. Theatre in Canada, and especially in Toronto, has long been a place for communities to celebrate their traditions, but it is now emerging as a forum for staging stories that stretch beyond the local and the national. Combining archival research and performance analysis, Barry Freeman analyzes the possibilities and hazards of representing strangers, and the many ways the stranger on stage may be fetishized or domesticated, marked for assimilation, or turned into an object of fear. A fresh look at ways to cultivate ethical responsibility for global issues, Staging Strangers imagines a role for theatre in creating a more tolerant, caring, and cooperative world.
