It is a grand tool for assisting early childhood educators to address the many-faceted and complex issues of cultural diversity and racial prejudice. . . . I recommend this book to any teacher, caregiver, or parent who wants to begin learning what it means to foster young children’s respect for themselves and others."—Louise Derman-Sparks, author, AntiBias CurriculumMore than a decade ago, Roots and Wings was published as the first practical resource for early childhood teachers on the then new topic of multicultural education.

Book excerpt: Noting that the concept of America as a "melting pot" ignores the differences that make individuals unique, this book provides a perspective of how culture influences life in the classroom, and the importance of maintaining culture in the lives of young children by means of multicultural education. The book provides over 60 hands-on activities for children that shape respectful attitudes toward cultural differences, and examples of ways culture affects behavior and routines in the classroom, including strategies for responding in respectful ways, ideas for integrating cultural awareness, and recommendations for staff training in multicultural education. Chapter one provides an introduction to the book and a rationale for multicultural education. Chapter two provides a definition of multicultural education, its importance, and goals. Chapter three provides guidance in "implementing multicultural education," while chapter four addresses integrating multiculturalism in the teaching and classroom environment. Chapter five provides "activities for teaching children about culture" in areas such as skin color, physical characteristics, similarities and differences, and social skills. Chapter six provides ideas for using "holidays and celebrations" in multicultural education. Chapter seven addresses "children's awareness of differences," including cultural awareness and prejudice formation. Chapter eight addresses "culturally responsive care and education" and describes culturally related child rearing patterns and dealing with ongoing problems. Chapter nine addresses"talking to children about differences" as empowering and as an agent of change. (Author/SD)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the current survivor-affirming awareness around sexual violence, child sexual abuse, most notably when it’s a family member or friend, is still a very taboo topic. There are approximately 42 million child sexual abuse survivors in the U.S. and millions of bystanders who look the other way as the abuse occurs and cover for the harm-doers with no accountability. Documentary filmmaker and survivor of child sexual abuse and adult rape, Aishah Shahidah Simmons invites diasporic Black people to join her in transformative storytelling that envisions a world that ends child sexual abuse without relying on the criminal justice system. Love WITH Accountability features compelling writings by child sexual abuse survivors, advocates, and Simmons’s mother, who underscores the detrimental impact of parents/caregivers not believing their children when they disclose their sexual abuse. This collection explores disrupting the inhumane epidemic of child sexual abuse, humanely.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely unsettling of old "settled" questions surrounding divorce Amid the current nationwide debate over what "marriage" is, this book examines anew the nature and meaning of marriage from the standpoint of what adult children of divorce have actually experienced. Upholding the inextricable link between our personal identity and our origin in a union of two — and, more deeply, in the Fatherhood of God — the contributors to this volume reflect on the damage that divorce does to children, opening up important questions for all of us: What does it mean to be human? What does it mean to love and to marry? After decades of talk about the rights of adults to get a divorce and the benefits for children of an amicable split between parents (a so-called "good divorce"), these authors — theologians, philosophers, political scientists, lawyers, psychologists, sociologists, and cultural critics — effectively unsettle conventional opinion.
