Book Description
You should buy this book immediately ... because this book knows completely how much you are boiling inside. In 2020, we were deceived and misled. Each day offered a new challenge, revealed some new horror, and there was no relief in being told it was simply the nature of the world, the nature of our society. 2020 was the kind of thing that happens to people in textbooks, except it was happening in real time to all of us. And it needed to be documented. "2020 is shaping up to be one of the most garbage years in American history, what statement do you want to make about it?" This was the writing prompt advanced to the writers of the essays herein, capturing experiences both raw and personal, and attempting to make sense of the extraordinary situation we all found ourselves in. Such a confluence of issues: COVID, Trump, racism, poverty, health, sexism, police brutality, Black Lives Matter, protests, federal troops occupying American cities and beating on citizens, masks, social distancing, businesses shuttered, entire industries closed, schools moved online, major sports halted, and white noise "whataboutism." As the effects of 2020 continue rippling and the future wants to know, "What the hell happened that year?" this collection will clarify. Essays as activism, essays as testimony. Contributors: Rashaun Allen, Jason Arment, Rabb Asad, Joe Austin, DeMisty D. Bellinger, John S.

Kiss My Asterisk
Author: Jenny Baranick
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1629141186
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Grammar has finally let its hair down! Unlike uptight grammar books that overwhelm us with every single grammar rule, Kiss My Asterisk is like a bikini: it’s fun, flirty, and covers only the most important bits. Its lessons, which are 100 percent free of complicated grammar jargon, have been carefully selected to include today’s most common, noticeable errors—the ones that confuse our readers or make them wonder if we are, in fact, smarter than a fifth grader. What is the proper use of an apostrophe? When should an ellipsis be used instead of an em dash? Why do we capitalize President Obama but not “the president”? And why is that question mark placed outside of the end quote? Author Jenny Baranick is an English professor whose students can’t believe she’s actually that into grammar. Upon experiencing the joys of grammar at an early age, raising grammar awareness became Jenny’s raison d’être. By spreading her remarkably user-friendly and hilarious approach to grammar, she hopes everyone will experience the satisfaction of a properly placed comma, a precisely used semicolon, and a correctly deployed en dash. Kiss My Asterisk shows grammar as it’s never been seen before: uncomplicated, laugh-out-loud funny, and, dare we say, a little risqué.
