Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Heléne Hale settled on the Island of Hawai'i in 1947. As a black woman at that time, she could not find a suitable job on the US mainland due to racial prejudice. She began her career in Kona as a teacher and then entered politics. In 1963, she became the first woman to serve in a leadership position since Queen Lili'uokalani 70 years earlier. Heléne continued to serve in leadership positions for over 50 years.She wanted to make government work for all people, not just people with money and power and she wanted women to become leaders because at that time, only men were.Throughout her life she demonstrated qualities of a leader: compassion, integrity, courage and vision. Heléne was dedicated to working for peace and justice, spreading the Aloha spirit wherever she went. Learning about Heléne's life offers a roadmap for contributing to your community in your own way.In her words, Heléne asked to be remembered as having 'strived to protect our environment, to improve the quality of life for all people, including children, the elderly, the disadvantaged, to preserve our Hawaiian heritage and to bring peace to the world.'.

Condizione: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 278 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Growing up white in Washington state, Barbara's dad never told her anything about his family-except that his mother was "crazy." Ten years after his death, she learned his sister was living in Hawai'i. Discovering "the family secret" introduced her to the concept of passing, and the complex nature of race and identity.

Meeting her aunt, an African American woman deeply involved in state politics, took Barbara's life in a new direction, which led her to Hilo, Hawai'i, Minneapolis, Minnesota, Washington, DC, and the Deep South-researching the extended family she could never know, and the historic times that defined them.This story challenges America's oversimplified view of race and explores how different individuals across generations pursued all available avenues of opportunity to define their lives in a race-conscious society. American history is not white history, although it has been presented that way. The times call for a truth telling.…
