The symphonic benefits of this resource are based on Jennifer’s authenticity, kindliness, charm, and people-engaging skills as an artistic, professional beautician, and entrepreneur. “But God.” Jennifer and Darryl understand the power of unity, the glue of this book. Jennifer and Darryl live 6,025 miles apart, branched by an ocean between two exceptional continents. Their countries of birth are as far apart in ideology and cultural norms as the “East is from the West.” Jennifer’s parents and grandparents are of nearly 100% African origin. She was born, nurtured, and educated in the West African nation of Ghana. Comparatively, according to his chromosomal data authenticated by specimen samples mailed to three independent DNA testing laboratories, Darryl’s genetic signature is about 58% originating in West and Southwest African nations and approximately 42% originating in Great Britain and Northwest European countries. The shared thread between the authors is their unwavering belief in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as elaborated in the New Testament of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. GOD chose both authors for this moment to put into common words the essence of “Unity of Faith” globally through an African citizen residing in a robust community of Ghana’s capital city and an African-American living in metropolitan New Orleans, U.S.A, ninety miles from the State of Louisiana’s capital city. Their piercing words aim to inspire you to uplift this crusade in prayer.

Download and read online ebook Black Feminism Reimagined write by Jennifer C. Nash. This book was released on 2018-12-06. Black Feminism Reimagined available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In Black Feminism Reimagined Jennifer C. Nash reframes black feminism's engagement with intersectionality, often celebrated as its primary intellectual and political contribution to feminist theory. Charting the institutional history and contemporary uses of intersectionality in the academy, Nash outlines how women's studies has both elevated intersectionality to the discipline's primary program-building initiative and cast intersectionality as a threat to feminism's coherence. As intersectionality has become a central feminist preoccupation, Nash argues that black feminism has been marked by a single affect—defensiveness—manifested by efforts to police intersectionality's usages and circulations. Nash contends that only by letting go of this deeply alluring protectionist stance, the desire to make property of knowledge, can black feminists reimagine intellectual production in ways that unleash black feminist theory's visionary world-making possibilities.

In 2014, the declaration of the Islamic State caliphate was hailed as a major victory by the global jihadist movement. But it was short-lived. Three years on, the caliphate was destroyed, leaving its surviving fighters – many of whom were foreign recruits – to retreat and scatter across the globe. So what happens now? Is this the beginning of the end of IS? Or can it adapt and regroup after the physical fall of the caliphate? In this timely analysis, terrorism expert Colin P. Clarke takes stock of IS – its roots, its evolution, and its monumental setbacks – to assess the road ahead. The caliphate, he argues, was an anomaly. The future of the global jihadist movement will look very much like its past – with peripatetic and divided groups of militants dispersing to new battlefields, from North Africa to Southeast Asia, where they will join existing civil wars, establish safe havens and sanctuaries, and seek ways of conducting spectacular attacks in the West that inspire new followers. In this fragmented and atomized form, Clarke cautions, IS could become even more dangerous and challenging for counterterrorism forces, as its splinter groups threaten renewed and heightened violence across the globe.

While the memorialization of slavery has generated an impressive number of publications, relatively few studies deal with this subject from a transnational, transdisciplinary and transracial standpoint. As a historical phenomenon that crossed borders and traversed national communities and ethnic groups producing alliances that did not overlap with received identities, slavery as well as its memory call for comparative investigations that may bring to light aspects obscured by the predominant visibility of US-American and British narratives of the past. This study addresses the memory of slavery from a transnational perspective. It brings into dialogue texts and practices from the transatlantic world, offering comparative analyses which interlace the variety of memories emerging in diverse national contexts and fields of study and shed light on the ways local countermemories have interacted with and responded to hegemonic narratives of slavery. The inclusion of Brazil and the French, English, and Spanish Caribbean alongside the United States and Europe, and the variety of investigative approaches-ranging from cinema, popular culture and visual culture studies to anthropology and literary studies-expand the current understanding of the slave past and how it is reimagined today. This fascinating book brings freshness to the topic by considering objects of investigation which have so far remained marginal in the academic debate, such as heroic memorials, civic landscape, white family sagas, Young Adult literature of slavery, Latin American telenovelas and filmic narrations within and beyond Hollywood. What emerges is a multifarious set of memories, which keep changing according to generation, race, gender, nation and political urgency and indicate the advancing of a dynamic, mobilized memorialization of slavery willing to move beyond mourning towards a more militant stand for justice. This is an important book for those interested in African American, American, and Latin American studies and working across literature, cinema, visual arts, and public culture. It will also be useful to public official and civil servants interested in the question of slavery and its present memory.
