Book Description
Behavioral Health Equity through Human services integration, forged in part through legislative and policy solutions, is key to reducing health disparities and promote good health outcomes across multicultural communities, said Dr. David L. Mount (founder and president for the NC Network for Human Services Integration to Prosperity). Voices in advance praise for Dr. David L. Mounts The Truth Aint Popular: Impediments to Hope As the nation steps into the dawn of 2020, community revitalization through Human Service Integration will become the emerging Civil Rights movement. Dr. Mount takes on a storytelling that seeks to reject a one size fit all framework, choosing to name and frame the multiplicity of we. He holds that we must cast the brightest shot light on a collective resilience while embracing a person-centered social justice (Ms. Kara Morrison). This book has economic implications viewed through the lens of social capital. The framework lifted up is based on the working model that use, access, acceptability and holistic outreach may fail to detect issues surrounding shaming, negative stereotypes, resilience, and alliance biases (Jason E. Mount, MBA). Professor Mount points out that the content of our lives has market value beyond the traditional commercial venues, where the everyday person is consistently fighting against a psychological bankruptcy. The implications for human services integration to prosperity echoes a call to stop scapegoating human suffering (Ms. Mara Ramirez). In many ways, the movement surrounding human services integration to prosperity works to place in the forefront a call to action on behalf of socially, emotionally, and economically oppressed communities, where folk are walking on an increasingly uncertain floor while reconstructing hope and attempting to dream against the noise of a shaky future (Ms. Yvonne Bowser). How, why and when vulnerable people matter is worthy of ongoing critic. The author underscores the psychosocial determinants of health with attention to galvanizing a major paradigm shift that will positively impact social justice through human services integration (Dr. Bobby Dunn).

Ain't I a Diva?
Author: Kevin Allred
Publisher: The Feminist Press at CUNY
ISBN: 193693261X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
“[Allred] interrogates Beyoncé’s music and videos to explore the complicated spaces where racism, sexism, and capitalism collide.” —Kirkus Reviews In 2010, Professor Kevin Allred created the university course “Politicizing Beyoncé” to both wide acclaim and controversy. He outlines his pedagogical philosophy in Ain’t I a Diva?, exploring what it means to build a syllabus around a celebrity. Topics range from a capitalist critique of “Run the World (Girls)” to the politics of self-care found in “Flawless”; Beyoncé’s art is read alongside black feminist thinkers including Kimberlé Crenshaw, Octavia Butler, and Sojourner Truth. Combining analysis with classroom anecdotes, Allred attests that pop culture is so much more than a guilty pleasure, it’s an access point—for education, entertainment, critical inquiry, and politics. “Proving himself a worthy member of the BeyHive, Kevin Allred takes us on a journey through Beyoncé’s greatest hits and expansive career—peeling back their multiple layers to explore gender, race, sexuality, and power in today’s modern world. A fun, engaging, and important read for long-time Beyoncé fans and newcomers alike.” —Franchesca Ramsey, author of Well, That Escalated Quickly “Ain’t I a Diva? explores the phenomenon of Beyoncé while explicitly championing not only her immense talent and grace but what we can learn from it. In this celebration of Beyoncé, and through her, other Black women, Allred is giving us room to be exactly who we are so that maybe we, too, can stop the world then carry on!” —Keah Brown, author of The Pretty One “A must-read for any fan of Beyoncé and of fascinating feminist discourse.” —Zeba Blay, senior culture writer, HuffPost

Sojourner Truth
Author: Larry G. Murphy
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
This simple narrative of an extraordinary life explores the power of a disinterested commitment to right and truth. Sojourner Truth: A Biography traces this remarkable woman's life from her birth through adulthood and to her death in 1883. Drawing from public pronouncements, personal correspondence, and journalistic accounts of key historical actors, it follows her extraordinary career and sets the events of her life in the larger context of U.S. social and political history. The years during which Truth lived bore witness to tremendous social and religious ferment in the United States, including, of course, the Civil War. Truth was directly involved, indeed an influential figure, in many contentious issues of the period, from slavery and abolition to religious revivalism, women's rights, temperance, racial reconciliation, and more. Her story serves as a prism through which readers will better understand how these complex matters were adjudicated in 19th-century America. More than that, her life demonstrates what courage, character, and principle can accomplish against all odds.
