The Two Faces of American Freedom
Author: Aziz Rana
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674266552
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
The Two Faces of American Freedom boldly reinterprets the American political tradition from the colonial period to modern times, placing issues of race relations, immigration, and presidentialism in the context of shifting notions of empire and citizenship. Today, while the U.S. enjoys tremendous military and economic power, citizens are increasingly insulated from everyday decision-making. This was not always the case. America, Aziz Rana argues, began as a settler society grounded in an ideal of freedom as the exercise of continuous self-rule—one that joined direct political participation with economic independence. However, this vision of freedom was politically bound to the subordination of marginalized groups, especially slaves, Native Americans, and women. These practices of liberty and exclusion were not separate currents, but rather two sides of the same coin. However, at crucial moments, social movements sought to imagine freedom without either subordination or empire. By the mid-twentieth century, these efforts failed, resulting in the rise of hierarchical state and corporate institutions. This new framework presented national and economic security as society’s guiding commitments and nurtured a continual extension of America’s global reach. Rana envisions a democratic society that revives settler ideals, but combines them with meaningful inclusion for those currently at the margins of American life.

Pages : 90
Book Description
Born in India, Tenzin Namzey Gentso came to America when she was three years old. Growing up with English as her second language, Tenzin developed a passion for reading and writing. She completed her first novella at age seventeen. Tenzin attends college in Boston, Massachusetts. Jay has finally achieved his dream of becoming a famous musician and plays in a band called The Blue Diamonds with four other members. With his rising popularity, Jay is living the life he has always wanted. However, one day his biggest fear comes true: the secret identity he has kept to himself all his life is leaked by the media to the whole world. Can Jay's now flipped life ever return to normal? How can he make amends with his band brothers and fans after such a disaster? "So, Mr. Jay Davis." Jay looked at Mr. Grande and felt butterflies in his stomach suddenly. The interviewer looked up at him slowly, his expression reminding Jay of a hyena hungry for food. "There's been rumors going around that-" Mr. Grande paused, whether it was to create suspense or form sensible words, "you used to be a girl?" Jay felt time freeze and his mind went blank, too shocked to deliver a reaction to that. The cameras focused on him intently and the bright lights above Jay suddenly felt like they were burning his skin. From the corner of his eye, he saw Luke's hand form into a small fist. "What do you make of that?" Mr. Grande asked after a few seconds of silence. Jay opened his mouth but only a croak came out. "Sorry," Jay apologized as he cleared his throat, trying to form an excuse of some sort quickly. His heart started thumping loudly as he debated whether he should reveal his secret and get it over with or not. So many possible answer choices popped up in Jay's mind, but Jay still felt as though he had a blank slate. That's just gossip." Jay turned his head and saw it was Aidan who had spoken up. "We haven't heard of this before, and I don't know how that came up in the first place." "I

Third Side of the Coin
Author: Jayanta Banerjee
Publisher: Palibrio
ISBN: 1506503330
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
The third side of a coin is essentially the one that connects the other two sides: the head and the tail. This analogy is used throughout the book to emphasize the importance of mastery learning in any profession, such as medicine, law, or engineering. Mastery learning is the essential outcome of uniting the two flat faces of a coin with the help of the third circular side. In any profession, the two flat faces of the coin are theory and practice, and the third side is the testing. The author gives examples from his more than fifty years of experience in engineering practice and engineering teaching to prove that mastery learning is essential. In the very rapidly changing pace of technology today, any curriculum that ignores mastery learning is bound to produce obsolete engineers.

The Prayer Coin
Author: Elisa Morgan
Publisher: Our Daily Bread Publishing
ISBN: 9781627078832
Category : God (Christianity)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Take a coin. Toss it in the air. Now call it. Heads? Tails? What if you could choose both sides? Elisa Morgan birthed the "prayer coin" idea as she was struggling in her own prayer life. Should she be blatantly honest about her desires or just leave everything to God and let Him lead? An epiphany came when Elisa noticed how Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane: "Take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done" (Luke 22:42). Jesus Christ begged for relief from the trial He faced, while utterly complying with what He knew the Father's will to be. Honesty and abandon--in the same breath. Elisa discovered that Jesus invites us to both. And the emotional back-and-forth, between full-out honesty and "giving it up" in abandon, actually drew her closer to God. If Jesus--our Savior, Mentor, and Friend--could pray both sides of the prayer coin, could we as well?
