A twist of time carried them into each other's arms . . . but just as suddenly, a sad turn of fate swept them apart. On a New England Christmas morning, Jessica, with their infant son in her arms, crosses the bedroom to greet Christopher. But before she has a chance to reach him, his image seems to fade, and his welcoming smile becomes a look of alarm. He reaches out his hand to her. She thinks she has grasped it.

Gail Pembroke grew up north of Atlanta long before the airport became the busiest in the world or downtown was the horror it is to drive in as it is today. As luck would have it, she also grew up with some of the most outrageously funny, tragic, tough, and indescribably precious women a girl could ask for in her life. They see one another through losses - that weren't quite losses. Or were they? And the men, oh my, the men. Some abusive, some a few fish short of a tuna salad sandwich. And one from across the pond. Well, you'll just have to read it to see!

Black for a Day
Author: Alisha Gaines
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469632845
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
In 1948, journalist Ray Sprigle traded his whiteness to live as a black man for four weeks. A little over a decade later, John Howard Griffin famously "became" black as well, traveling the American South in search of a certain kind of racial understanding. Contemporary history is littered with the surprisingly complex stories of white people passing as black, and here Alisha Gaines constructs a unique genealogy of "empathetic racial impersonation--white liberals walking in the fantasy of black skin under the alibi of cross-racial empathy. At the end of their experiments in "blackness," Gaines argues, these debatably well-meaning white impersonators arrived at little more than false consciousness. Complicating the histories of black-to-white passing and blackface minstrelsy, Gaines uses an interdisciplinary approach rooted in literary studies, race theory, and cultural studies to reveal these sometimes maddening, and often absurd, experiments of racial impersonation. By examining this history of modern racial impersonation, Gaines shows that there was, and still is, a faulty cultural logic that places enormous faith in the idea that empathy is all that white Americans need to make a significant difference in how to racially navigate our society.

Book Description
The CW's hit adaptation of Supergirl is a new take on the classic DC character for a new audience. With diverse female characters, it explores different versions of the female experience. No single character embodies a feminist ideal but together they represent attributes of the contemporary feminist conversation. This collection of new essays uses a similar approach, inviting a diverse group of scholars to address the many questions about gender roles and female agency in the series. Essays analyze how the series engages with feminism, Supergirl's impact on queer audiences, and how families craft the show's feminist narratives. In the ever-growing superhero television genre, Supergirl remains unique as viewers watch a female hero with almost godlike powers face the same struggles as ordinary women in the series.
