Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Africans with Christian NamesA powerful exploration of identity, resilience, and the untold story of African American strength in the face of systematic oppression.From the slave ships that stripped away African names, languages, and cultures, to the modern prison system that distorts public perception, this groundbreaking book reveals how centuries of deliberate division have shaped-and failed to break-the African American spirit.Author Aszuage exposes the brutal irony of slavery: a system designed to create docile workers that instead forged some of the most physically and mentally resilient people in human history. Through forced breeding programs and survival under unimaginable conditions, enslaved communities developed extraordinary strength that would later excel in athletics, military service, and countless other fields.This book challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths about American race relations, including: - How European colonizers imposed Christian names while genociding Native Americans to steal their land- Why conflicts between Black and Latino communities are artificial constructs designed to prevent solidarity- How the prison industrial complex uses 2.2 million incarcerated Americans to stereotype 37+ million law-abiding African Americans- The deliberate "divide and conquer" strategies that pit minority communities against each other- Why some Latino Americans align with white power structures instead of recognizing common cause with their Black brothers and sistersBut this is not just a book about oppression-it's a celebration of survival and achievement. The invisible majority of 37 million African Americans who work as teachers, nurses, engineers, veterans, and community leaders prove daily that Black Americans share the same values and aspirations as all Americans.Written with love for truth and justice, Africans with Christian Names calls for an end to judging people by skin color-whether in gang colors or racial stereotypes. It's time to move beyond surface divisions and build the coalitions necessary for genuine equality.Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand America's complex racial history and the path toward a more perfect union."The Christian names that once symbolized cultural erasure have become badges of survival and transformation-representing the ability to maintain humanity and dignity even under the most dehumanizing conditions."

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. At 3am, you're scrolling through your phone, watching everyone else's highlight reel while your own life feels like deleted footage. The question comes again, the one that's haunted you for years: "Am I enough?"In Stop Asking, Start Knowing, author and behavioral health professional Dyng Hamilton reveals a powerful truth: You're asking the wrong question.Drawing on fifteen years of crisis intervention and working with thousands of people at their lowest points, Hamilton exposes the lies we've been taught about worth-that it must be earned through achievement, appearance, or usefulness. That it's conditional, measurable, and always just out of reach. These lies keep us trapped in exhausting cycles of performance, validation-seeking, and comparison.This book is for anyone who feels invisible, unwanted, or like they've lost touch with who they really are. For those who perform constantly but feel deeply alone. For people who achieve success but still feel empty. For anyone tired of twisting themselves into shapes to prove they deserve to exist.Hamilton dismantles the cultural programming that created your self-doubt and replaces it with an unshakeable foundation: Your worth is inherent. It was never conditional. You were born worthy, and nothing-no failure, rejection, or circumstance-can change that fundamental truth.Through four transformative sections-The Question, The Lies, The Truth, and The Practice-readers learn to stop seeking external validation and start trusting their inherent worth. Each chapter includes practical exercises to move from intellectual understanding to lived experience.This isn't another book about positive thinking or faking confidence. This is about fundamental transformation-unlearning decades of conditioning and remembering the truth about who you've always been.Stop asking if you're enough. Start knowing that you are. Your life is waiting. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
