Book Description
In this time where children are fighting the battles of low self esteem and self worth, this book will be the equivalent to a refreshing glass of water to those who are thirsty or a breath of fresh air to those who need to breathe. It is my hope that this book will rekindle the fire of a declining American art form. This book is about healing. It contains essays, poems, and insights into dance and it works in a powerful effective way to change the quality of the individual's life experience for the better. Through dance, individuals can display pride, self-expression, and identity. For the students of Dr. E. Alma Flagg School, the history of Modem dance will speak to them personally, as well as culturally. A dance would look quite different without the influence of the African and Latin contribution. Throughout history we have discovered how dance has enabled people to communicate their thoughts and ideas and provide comfort in times of sorrow and misery. I Dance Because.... Is a gift of comfort, peace, hope and inspiration. Page by page you will feel the passion and heartfelt thoughts as dancers describe the reasons they dance. Mrs. Pope has enlisted the talents of many individuals, from many different places to speak to one thing that they all love, DANCING!! She serves as a teacher truly committed towards the promotion of her students as well as her art form. In a short time, I have witnessed her transform some of the most challenging students into individuals who believe in themselves and work diligently to meet her approval. She is truly an asset to our school and I applaud her efforts in compiling this extensive volume of information to motivate the next generations of dancers. Roy T. Wilson Principal Dr. E. Alma Flagg School

Rowdy Patsy Tebeau and the Cleveland Spiders
Author: David L. Fleitz
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786499478
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
In an era of rowdy teams, the Cleveland Spiders (1887-1899) were baseball's rowdiest. Managed by Oliver "Patsy" Tebeau, a quick-tempered infielder, the Spiders seemed to heap abuse of one kind or another on everyone--umpires, opposing teams, even the fans. Their aggression never brought home the pennant, but Cleveland's battles with the league's top clubs, including an 1895 Temple Cup victory over the Baltimore Orioles, are now legendary. Yet the story of the Spiders amounts to more than a 12 year free-for-all. There were top-flight players like Ed McKean, George Davis, Jesse Burkett, and Cy Young. There was the racially progressive signing of Holy Cross star Louis Sockalexis, the first American Indian in the major leagues. And then there was the team's final season, 1899, when a club ravaged by syndicalism set the standard for baseball futility.

Catholic Social Learning
Author: Roger C. Bergman
Publisher: Fordham Univ Press
ISBN: 0823233286
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
The canon for Catholic social teaching spreads to six hundred pages, yet fewer than two pages are devoted to Catholic social learning or pedagogy. In this long-needed book, Roger Bergman begins to correct that gross imbalance. He asks: How do we educate ("lead out") the faith that does justice? How is commitment to social justice provoked and sustained over a lifetime? To address these questions, Bergman weaves what he has learned from thirty years as a faith-that-does-justice educator with the best of current scholarship and historical authorities. He reflects on personal experience; the experience of Church leaders, lay activists, and university students; and the few words the tradition itself has to say about a pedagogy for justice. Catholic Social Learning explores the foundations of this pedagogy, demonstrates its practical applications, and illuminates why and how it is fundamental to Catholic higher education. Part I identifies personal encounters with the poor and marginalized as key to stimulating a hunger and thirst for justice. Part II presents three applications of Catholic social learning: cross-cultural immersion as illustrated by Creighton University's Semestre Dominicano program; community-based service learning; and the teaching of moral exemplars such as Dorothy Day, Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., and Archbishop Oscar Romero. Part III then elucidates how a pedagogy for justice applies to the traditional liberal educational mission of the Catholic university, and how it can be put into action. Catholic Social Learning is both a valuable, practical resource for Christian educators and an important step forward in the development of a transformative pedagogy.
