Book excerpt: Named one of the best books of 2017 by NPR, the Huffington Post, Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, the Los Angeles Times, the Boston Globe, the Horn Book Magazine, the News & Observer, BookPage, Chicago Public Library, and more The barbershop is where the magic happens. Boys go in as lumps of clay and, with princely robes draped around their shoulders, a dab of cool shaving cream on their foreheads, and a slow, steady cut, they become royalty. That crisp yet subtle line makes boys sharper, more visible, more aware of every great thing that could happen to them when they look good: lesser grades turn into As; girls take notice; even a mother’s hug gets a little tighter. Everyone notices. A fresh cut makes boys fly. This rhythmic, read-aloud title is an unbridled celebration of the self-esteem, confidence, and swagger boys feel when they leave the barber’s chair—a tradition that places on their heads a figurative crown, beaming with jewels, that confirms their brilliance and worth and helps them not only love and accept themselves but also take a giant step toward caring how they present themselves to the world. The fresh cuts. That’s where it all begins. Crown: An Ode to the Fresh Cut is a high-spirited, engaging salute to the beautiful, raw, assured humanity of black boys and how they see themselves when they approve of their reflections in the mirror.

This book was released on 2022-03-15 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally released in 1981, This Bridge Called My Back is a testimony to women of color feminism as it emerged in the last quarter of the twentieth century. Through personal essays, criticism, interviews, testimonials, poetry, and visual art, the collection explores, as coeditor Cherríe Moraga writes, "the complex confluence of identities—race, class, gender, and sexuality—systemic to women of color oppression and liberation." Reissued here, forty years after its inception, this anniversary edition contains a new preface by Moraga reflecting on Bridge's "living legacy" and the broader community of women of color activists, writers, and artists whose enduring contributions dovetail with its radical vision. Further features help set the volume's historical context, including an extended introduction by Moraga from the 2015 edition, a statement written by Gloria Anzaldúa in 1983, and visual art produced during the same period by Betye Saar, Ana Mendieta, Yolanda López, and others, curated by their contemporary, artist Celia Herrera Rodríguez. Bridge continues to reflect an evolving definition of feminism, one that can effectively adapt to and help inform an understanding of the changing economic and social conditions of women of color in the United States and throughout the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The plot of the Black-fires—violent, flame-producing beings—to abduct Dust, an individual unique for his powerful sonar, failed. The small force of would-be kidnappers, led by Maggie Mushu, now flee, certain they will be tortured and killed if they report their failure to their queen, Nesh-nesh, and their spacecraft low on fuel. They seek refuge on the avaricious planet Dawd, unaware that an invisible tracker was placed on their ship and a group of heroes led by Princess Silk of the peaceful, God-worshipping Dronewatoners of Planet Star now pursues them. Meanwhile, Nesh-nesh mobilizes her troops across the stars to find Maggie Mushu and prepare for an assault against Planet Star. Queen Star and her military leader, Captain Ode, do their best to raise soldiers out of the pacifistic Dronewatoners of Planet Star, hoping to prepare an army in time for a potential war with the Black-Fires. As interplanetary plots and clashing motivations unfold across space, one question remains: Is conflict inevitable? Or can the people of Planet Star show the Black-Fires the glory of God before it is too late? The sequel to The Unconquerable Dust, The Unconquerable Star is a thrilling tale of good against evil and the power of God and Christian values set against an imaginative sci-fi backdrop.
