Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. Shea, Tiffani (cover design) (illustratore). 1st Edition. As new condition white boards with black spine lettering contained in an as new condition color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Preliminary Page Quote by Frederick Douglass; Author Dedication; 1776 Unites Mission Statement; Foreword by Dr. Lucas E. Morel; Introduction: The Crucial Voice of "1776" by Robert L. Woodson, Sr.; Biographies of Contributing Authors; Endnotes and Acknowledgments. " "An indispensable corrective to the falsified version of black history presented by The 1619 Project, radical activists, and money-hungry "diversity consultants." In the rush to redefine the place of black Americans in contemporary society, many radical activists and academics have mounted a campaign to destroy traditional American history and replace it with a politicized version that few would recognize. According to the new radical orthodoxy, the United States was founded as a racist nation -- and everything that has happened throughout our history must be viewed through the lens of the systemic oppression of black people. Rejecting this false narrative, a collection of the most prominent and respected black scholars and thinkers has come together to correct the record and tell the true story of black Americans in all its complexity, diversity of experience, and poignancy. Collectively, they paint a vivid picture of black people living the grand American experience, however bumpy the road may be along the way. But rather than a people apart, blacks are woven into the united whole that makes this nation unique in history." -- from the rear outer jacket. "1776 Unites represents a nonpartisan and intellectually diverse alliance of writers, thinkers, and activists focused on solutions to our country's greatest challenges in education, culture, and upward mobility. We acknowledge that racial discrimination exists - and work toward diminishing it. But we dissent from contemporary groupthink and rhetoric about race, class, and American history that defames our national heritage, divides our people, and instills helplessness among those who already hold within themselves the grit and resilience to better their lot in life. 1776 Unites maintains a special focus on voices in the black community who celebrate black excellence, reject victimhood culture and showcase the millions of black Americans who have prospered by embracing the founding ideals of America. We are intellectuals, journalists, entrepreneurs, and grassroots activists, celebrating the progress America has made, the resilience of its people, and our future together. We seek decisive action in restoring our people's confidence and advancing the cause of actual justice in the face of hostile messages that degrade the spiritual, moral, and political foundations of our nation." -- from the inner front jacket flap.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: Very Good. L. S. Haywood. Grace Lodge, Mathew Mole, etc. (illustratore). 1st Edition. 5 Issues of this Children's Monthly magazine containing the FIRST 5 stories of Norman Hunter's "Professor Branestawm" not published in book form until 1933. These include; April: The Professor Invents a Machine. May: The Wild Waste-Paper. July: The Professor Borrows a Book. Sept: Burglars! Oct: The Screaming Clocks. These appear as numbers 1-5 with later issues having the odd short story by him as do the earlier issues, but no more for this character. As they were printed with gaps yet run consecutively they were published as intended as he finished them. The magazines are quarto size with printed covers by David Hutton, they have other tales and activity pages with an emphasis on traditional tales for children of a more middle-class family. A serial by Norah Francis Caulfield "The Sword of Adventure" in each issue + Agnes Hart, Agnes Frome, Hilda Finnemore, E. S. Thomas, Harold Black continues with his stories of "The Gnomes and Bloggs" in several and the editor himself Hugh Chesterman amongst others. Illustrations by Marjorie Dawes, Audrey Teago, Dorothy Furniss and others. Covers have soma age toning and or dust lines, one has a quarter page advert for the magazine annual cut out but all remain very good internally and near VG on covers. Each has about 40 pages in covers with adverts at the front and sometimes at the back also. Quarto. 1929. NOTE: This lead title of tales by Norman Hunter has no mention in ANY bibliographical information I could find of these stories appearing before 1933 and elaborate that they were taken from BBC broadcasts, or also used by the BBC at the same time the books was released with illustrations by William Heath Robinson in 1933. The magazine had a sister annual "Joy Street" issued yearly BUT with none of these tales being used in the books, they appear here only. The Annual was published by Basil Blackwell and was edited by Hugh Chesterman for over 10 years with each annual being numbered from Number 1 onwards.(Please contact us for further information).
