Matchsticks

ISBN: 9780757005053
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Fred Engh and his non-profit organization, NAYS--the National Association of Youth Sports--has positively affected the lives of millions of children throughout the country for decades, but chances are you have never heard of him or his group. What he has tried to do is make organized sports for kids fun. He has done this by training coaches to be fair, avoid playing favorites, bulling players, and stopping fans from getting out of control. He has also tried to even the playing field for children of different colors and ethnicities. From baseball to soccer to golf, he has made it his mission to let children choose to play the sport they love--no matter where they live or how well they play. And yet, the story behind how he discovered his calling in life is definitely a remarkable one of transition. The year was 1961, a year marking the start of the racial unrest that would last throughout the decade. Living in a trailer camp in Maryland with his wife and daughter children, Fred's future seemed bleak--that is, until he heard a college football coach being interviewed on a local radio show talking about becoming a Physical Education .E. teacher. The coach's words would inspire him enough to registrar at Maryland State College, a then all-black college. The things of it was, Fred Engh was white. He would become the first white student to attend Maryland State, a segregated college. His intention was not to break any racial barriers or make any headlines. He simply wanted a better life for himself and his family as an accredited teacher. What he learned from attending that college however was something he had not expected. Matchsticks: An Education in Black & White is his story. Today, when racial disparage has once again taken the form of marches, protesters, and daily news headlines, here is a tale of discovery, understanding, and personal change. A lesson still as valuable today as it was then.

Book Description
Don’t play with matches! Don’t be a bully! Don’t steal! Mind your manners! I recall when I was about twelve years old and my little sister and I were told to go to bed. Of course, we were never tired at bedtime, so it was highly entertaining to conjure up stories out of my head to either scare her so bad that she couldn’t go to sleep, or make her laugh until she cried. She loved those bedtime stories, so I wrote this book of short stories to give to my grandchildren. Stories that would not only make them laugh, but could possibly be used as a tool to teach them right from wrong and how to stay out of trouble. At a very young age, children tend to be extremely trusting and vulnerable and unfortunately the world is not the safe place they think it is. “Look before you leap,” my father always said. I imagine that particular saying is still used today. Hopefully the stories in this book will encourage youngsters to think about what they do before they do it. Welcome to Sticksville.
