Hardback. Condizione: Good. A powerful collection of essays from actors, activists, athletes, politicians, musicians, writers, and teens, including Black Lives Matter founder Patrisse Cullors, actress Alia Shawkat, actor Maulik Pancholy, poet Azure Antoinette, teen activist Gavin Grimm, and many, many more, each writing about a time in their youth when they were held back because of their race, gender, or sexual identity--but persisted. "Aren't you a terrorist?" "There are no roles for people who look like you." "That's a sin." "No girls allowed." They've heard it all. Actress Alia Shawkat reflects on all the parts she was told she was too "ethnic" to play. Former NFL player Wade Davis recalls his bullying of gay classmates in an attempt to hide his own sexuality. Teen Gavin Grimm shares the story that led to the infamous "bathroom bill," and how he's fighting it. Holocaust survivor Fanny Starr tells of her harrowing time in Aushwitz, where she watched her family disappear, one by one. What made them rise up through the hate? What made them overcome the obstacles of their childhood to achieve extraordinary success? How did they break out of society's limited view of who they are and find their way to the beautiful and hard-won lives they live today? With a foreword by Minnesota senator and up-and-coming Democratic party leader Amy Klobuchar, these essays share deeply personal stories of resilience, faith, love, and, yes, persistence. An International Latino Book Award Winner A National Council for Social Studies Selection "Each tale is a soulful testament to the endurance of the human spirit and reminds readers that they are not alone in their search for self. An unflinchingly honest book that should be required reading for every young person in America."--Kirkus, Starred review "An invaluable collection of snapshots of American society."--VOYA, Starred review "[A] gem of a book. . . There's a lot to study here and talk about on the way to becoming kinder, more empathetic, and most important, compassionate."--Booklist "Readers encountering injustice in their own lives may be compelled to take heart--and even action."--Publishers Weekly "A powerful collection of voices."--SLJ "The sheer variation in writing styles, subject-matters, and structure to these narratives provides readers with inspiration in assorted forms and a complex interpretation of what it means to persist."--The Bulletin. …

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Sacred Sistering is designed as a collection of devotions, poems, and prayers to inspire women of color toward an enduring sense of faith, hope, and spiritual direction in life and ministry leadership. The uniqueness of this devotional is found when women of color reflect on the narratives of biblical women, their relationships with each other, and the issues that regulate women to the margins of culture, church, and community. The power lies in how women of color at the intersection of race, gender, and everyday life, find in the biblical narratives their own stories, untold truths, strength, hope, distress, disappointment, comfort, and practices of Sacred Sistering that empower and sustain them.This dynamic devotional tells the varied truth and complexity of Sacred Sistering. Devotions and prayers consist of hopeful and inspiring testimonies reflecting women's experiences and Sistering moments and missed opportunities. Sistering moments have assisted women through difficult transitions, relationships, and growing pains. Seasons in which joys, blessings, and accomplishments have been celebrated; and loneliness, invisibility, and the wounds of disempowerment have been comforted. Times when we have neglected, ignored, and even exploited or oppressed a sister, as well as occasions when we wanted a second chance to be a better sister. Intended to Renew, Inspire, Support, and Empower the souls of women in ministry, Sacred Sistering devotions are for all who care about the ministry, leadership, the spiritual life journey, and legacy of women of color.…
