Impossible Stories On the Space and Time of Black Destructive Creation【電子書籍】[ John Murillo III ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In <em>Impossible Stories,</em> John Murillo offers bold new readings of recent and canonical Black creative works within an Afro-pessimistic framework to excavate how time, space, and blackness intersectーor, rather, crash. Building on Michelle Wright’s ideas about dislocation from time and space as constitutive to being Black in America, as well as on W. E. B. DuBois’s theories of temporalization, he reconsiders the connections between physical phenomena and principles, literature, history, and the fragmented nature of Black time and space.</p> <p>Taking as his lens the fragmentーfragmented bodies, fragments of memories, fragments of textsーMurillo theorizes new directions for Black identity and cultural production. Combining a critical engagement of physics and metaphysics with innovative readings of Gayl Jones’s <em>Corregidora</em>, Octavia Butler’s <em>Kindred</em>, Toni Morrison’s <em>Beloved</em>, Kiese Laymon’s <em>Long Division</em>, Dionne Brand’s <em>A Map to the Door of No Return,</em> and Paul Beatty’s <em>The Sellout</em>, he offers new ways to think about anti-Black racism and practice Black creativity. Ultimately, in his equally creative and analytical responses to depictions of Black people left out of history and barred from spaces, Murillo argues that through Afro-pessimism, Black people can fight the anti-Black cosmos.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Black in White Space The Enduring Impact of Color in Everyday Life【電子書籍】[ Elijah Anderson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>From the vital voice of Elijah Anderson,</strong> <em><strong>Black in White Space</strong></em> <strong>sheds fresh light on the dire persistence of racial discrimination in our country.</strong></p> <p>A birder strolling in Central Park. A college student lounging on a university quad. Two men sitting in a coffee shop. Perfectly ordinary actions in ordinary settingsーand yet, they sparked jarring and inflammatory responses that involved the police and attracted national media coverage. Why? In essence, Elijah Anderson would argue, because these were Black people existing in white spaces.</p> <p>In <em>Black in White Space</em>, Anderson brings his immense knowledge and ethnography to bear in this timely study of the racial barriers that are still firmly entrenched in our society at every class level. He focuses in on symbolic racism, a new form of racism in America caused by the stubbornly powerful stereotype of the ghetto embedded in the white imagination, which subconsciously connects all Black people with crime and poverty regardless of their social or economic position. White people typically avoid Black space, but Black people are required to navigate the “white space” as a condition of their existence. From Philadelphia street-corner conversations to Anderson’s own morning jogs through a Cape Cod vacation town, he probes a wealth of experiences to shed new light on how symbolic racism makes all Black people uniquely vulnerable to implicit bias in police stops and racial discrimination in our country.</p> <p>An unwavering truthteller in our national conversation on race, Anderson has shared intimate and sharp insights into Black life for decades. Vital and eye-opening, <em>Black in White Space</em> will be a must-read for anyone hoping to understand the lived realities of Black people and the structural underpinnings of racism in America.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Into the Black JPL and the American Space Program, 1976-2004【電子書籍】[ Peter J. Westwick ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In the decades since the mid-1970s, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, has led the quest to explore the farthest reaches of the solar system. JPL spacecraft-Voyager, Magellan, Galileo, the Mars rovers, and others-have brought the planets into close view. JPL satellites and instruments also shed new light on the structure and dynamics of earth itself, while their orbiting observatories opened new vistas on the cosmos. This comprehensive book recounts the extraordinary story of the lab's accomplishments, failures, and evolution from 1976 to the present day.<br /> This history of JPL encompasses far more than the story of the events and individuals that have shaped the institution. It also engages wider questions about relations between civilian and military space programs, the place of science and technology in American politics, and the impact of the work at JPL on the way we imagine the place of humankind in the universe.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Red Lines, Black Spaces The Politics of Race and Space in a Black Middle-Class Suburb【電子書籍】[ Dr. Bruce D. Haynes ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<DIV>Runyon Heights, a community in Yonkers, New York, has been populated by middle-class African Americans for nearly a century. This book-the first history of a black middle-class community-tells the story of Runyon Heights, which sheds light on the process of black suburbanization and the ways in which residential development in the suburbs has been shaped by race and class.<BR><BR>Relying on both interviews with residents and archival research, Bruce D. Haynes describes the progressive stages in the life of the community and its inhabitants and the factors that enabled it to form in the first place and to develop solidarity, identity and political consciousness. He shows how residents came to recognize common political interests within the community, how racial consciousness provided an axis for social solidarity as well as partial insulation from racial slights, and how the suburb afforded these middle-class residents a degree of physical and social distance from the ghetto. As Haynes explores the history of Runyon Heights, we learn the ways in which its black middle class dealt with the tensions between the political interests of race and the material interests of class.<BR></DIV>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Architecture in Black Theory, Space and Appearance【電子書籍】[ Darell Wayne Fields ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Based on analysis of historical, philosophical, and semiotic texts, <em>Architecture in Black</em> presents a systematic examination of the theoretical relationship between architecture and blackness. Now updated, this original study draws on a wider range of case studies, highlighting the racial techniques that can legitimize modern historicity, philosophy and architectural theory.</p> <p>Arguing that architecture, as an aesthetic practice, and blackness, as a linguistic practice, operate within the same semiotic paradigm, Darell Fields employs a technique whereby works are related through the repetition and revision of their semiotic structures. Fields reconstructs the genealogy of a black racial subject, represented by the simultaneous reading of a range of canonical texts from Hegel to Saussure to Henry Louis Gates, Jr.</p> <p>Combining an historical survey of racial discourse with new readings resulting from advanced semiotic techniques doubling as spatial arrangements, <em>Architecture in Black</em> is an important contribution to studies of the racial in Western thought and its impact on architecture, space and time.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Thriving While Black The Act of Surviving and Thriving in the same space【電子書籍】[ Cori Jamal Williams ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>"<em>Thriving While Black</em>"</strong> sets out to explore the psychological and emotional consequences of being Black in corporate America. <em>"Ain't I an American?"</em> the famous words of LangstonHughes, is a question every Black person unwittingly asks themselves. The playing field for Whites and Blacks is not equal, whether in education, science and technology, life expectancy, earning, or social strata. Blacks have been discriminated against and excluded based on their skin color, which creates the question of what their place is in America.</p> <p>There exist persistent Black inequalities in the structural make up of America; inequalities not inherent due to the differences in the abilities of Whites and Blacks but instead, due to the differences in access to opportunities between the two groups.</p> <p>Black workers in corporate America have to grapple with racial microaggressions in the workplace, which often involves White workers assuming that their Black counterparts are intellectually inferior to them. Thus, Blacks are passed over when important decisions are being made because of the belief that they have nothing intellectual to bring to the table; a phenomenon that is an obstacle to the upward mobility of Blacks in different organizations.</p> <p><strong>"<em>Thriving While Black</em>"</strong> portrays that Blacks are Americans too and should not have to be seen as less and unequal! Their humanity should not be reduced to mere negative stereotypes. If America truly prides itself in diversity, there shouldn't be a forced need for Blacks to adopt mainstream White culture, hair styling, speech mannerisms, dress codes, etc., and neglect their own African-American identity just to fit into corporate America. The beauty of diversity is not gathering different and diverse people and trying to make them act the same way. Instead, it is bringing diverse people together and allowing their diversity to thrive. This is the focus of this book.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Border Crossing ≪Brothas≫ Black Males Navigating Race, Place, and Complex Space【電子書籍】[ Rochelle Brock ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>Winner of the 2017 Society of Professors of Education Book Award</strong></p> <p><strong>Winner of the 2017 American Educational Studies Association Critics' Choice Award</strong></p> <p><em>Border Crossing ≪Brothas≫</em> examines how Black males form identities, define success, and utilize community-based pedagogical spaces to cross literal and figurative borders. The tragic deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Tamir Rice in Cleveland, and numerous others from Brooklyn, Britain, and Bermuda whose lives have been taken prematurely suggest that negotiating race, place, and complex space is a matter of life and death for Black males. In jurisdictions such as the U.S. and Bermuda, racial tensions are the palpable and obvious reality, yet the average citizen has no idea how to sensibly react. This book offers a reasonable response that pushes readers to account for and draw on the best of what we know, the core of who we are, and the needs and histories of those we serve.</p> <p>Drawing on the educational and socializing experiences of Black males in Bermuda ? a beautiful yet complex island with strong connections to the U.S., England, and the Caribbean ? this book offers educators and leaders new language for postcolonial possibilities and emancipatory epistemologies related to Black male identities and success in a global context. Intriguing findings and fresh frameworks grounded in understandings of race, class, ability, transnationalism, culture, colonialism, and the construction/performance of gendered identity emerge in this book.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Black Scholars in White Space New Vistas in African American Studies from the Christian Academy【電子書籍】[ Anthony B. Bradley ]

Black Market Studs On Ice (Book 5 of "Deep Space Lust")【電子書籍】[ Greta Bowles ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Isadora is on the run. Convincing Captain Roma to give her passage on his freighter means accepting his terms--satisfying his lust and that of a hermaphrodite Demrik.</p> <p>She is sharing the cargo hold with a couple of illegally genetically engineered studs.</p> <p>What can possibly go wrong?</p> <p>But hot, erotic action with multiple partners triumphs over adversity every time. A creature has to be adaptable.</p> <p>~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~</p> <p>Climbing the boarding ramp of the Stella Buena, I experienced a moment of actual fear. The ratty old freighter was my lifeline… if I could convince the captain to help me out.<br /> He had to help me. Suddenly, the otherwise routine task of getting off Tyrsa II had become the most important thing in my life. In fact, without delving into nauseating detail, if I had to remain on Tyrsa II much longer, it would likely be the last thing I ever did.<br /> I wasn’t ready for the last thing in my life to come up. Not yet.<br /> Fortunately, I didn’t have to be sneaky about my intentions to get off planet as fast as possible. After the unfortunate events that had played out, I wasn’t the only one on that planet who thought me leaving immediately was a good thing.<br /> The authorities made that clear.<br /> “Now!” was the word the magistrate used.<br /> Checking the flight schedules, I found this ship, the interplanetary freighter Stella Buena, was the only ship leaving the planet for the next week. But a lack of transport was, in the words of the same magistrate, my problem. I was to be gone ASAP.<br /> I noted that Stella Buena’s scheduled flight plan involved a long hop and then a three-day layover on a planet I would rather avoid if that was possible. Not that I was in trouble there, nothing major, anyway, not the kind of situation that risked my life and liberty, but it wasn’t a nice place to while away the time.<br /> The second issue I had with what appeared to be my only option was that Stella Buena, despite its name (Good Star), was at best a rather sketchy freighter.<br /> But choice was a luxury I didn’t have.<br /> I had a passing acquaintance with the ship’s Captain, Oscar Ramo. Whether that would prove to be a plus or minus remained to be seen. Oscar was a Rigel Blue. Not to profile or diminished the ability of any creature to become more than the sum of their genes, but it was a race well known to produce skilled traders who tended to be less than conscientious Captains.<br /> Oscar was the poster boy for that. I knew him to be incredibly fond of himself… self indulgent. I doubted he willing squandered a great deal of love and affection on his ship, much less any significant money. The saying: “if it ain’t entirely essential, jury rig it,” comes to mind.<br /> Rigel Blues are fond of a fat and juicy bottom line.<br /> The look in his eyes when I came on board told me the plant’s rumor mill was grinding away at full tilt. Oscar didn’t look the least surprised to see me.<br /> He’d heard the story and he knew the schedules better than I did and would have predicted my arrival with a probability of one-hundred percent.<br /> His smile said it all. Seeing me coming to him, walking on his ship and knowing that I needed to ask him for a favor, pleased him a lot.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

White Space, Black Hood Opportunity Hoarding and Segregation in the Age of Inequality【電子書籍】[ Sheryll Cashin ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>**A 2021 C. Wright Mills Award Finalist</p> <p>Shows how government created “ghettos” <em>and</em> affluent white space and entrenched a system of American residential caste that is the linchpin of US inequalityーand issues a call for abolition.**</p> <p>The iconic Black hood, like slavery and Jim Crow, is a peculiar American institution animated by the ideology of white supremacy. Politicians and people of all colors propagated “ghetto” myths to justify racist policies that concentrated poverty in the hood and created high-opportunity white spaces. In <em>White Space, Black Hood</em>, Sheryll Cashin traces the history of anti-Black residential casteーboundary maintenance, opportunity hoarding, and stereotype-driven surveillanceーand unpacks its current legacy so we can begin the work to dismantle the structures and policies that undermine Black lives.</p> <p>Drawing on nearly 2 decades of research in cities including Baltimore, St. Louis, Chicago, New York, and Cleveland, Cashin traces the processes of residential caste as it relates to housing, policing, schools, and transportation. She contends that geography is now central to American caste. Poverty-free havens and poverty-dense hoods would not exist if the state had not designed, constructed, and maintained this physical racial order.</p> <p>Cashin calls for abolition of these state-sanctioned processes. The ultimate goal is to change the lens through which society sees residents of poor Black neighborhoods from presumed thug to presumed citizen, and to transform the relationship of the state with these neighborhoods from punitive to caring. She calls for investment in a new infrastructure of opportunity in poor Black neighborhoods, including richly resourced schools and neighborhood centers, public transit, Peacemaker Fellowships, universal basic incomes, housing choice vouchers for residents, and mandatory inclusive housing elsewhere.</p> <p>Deeply researched and sharply written, <em>White Space, Black Hood</em> is a call to action for repairing what white supremacy still breaks.</p> <p><em>Includes historical photos, maps, and charts that illuminate the history of residential segregation as an institution and a tactic of racial oppression.</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Publishing Contracts and the Post Negotiation Space Lifting the Lid on Publishing’s Black Box of Aspirations, Laws and Money【電子書籍】[ Katherine Day ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Many writers dream of having their work published by a respected publishing house, but don’t always understand publishing contract terms ? what they mean for the contracting parties and how they inform book-publishing practice. In turn, publishers struggle to satisfy authors’ creative expectations against the industry’s commercial demands. This book challenges our perceptions of these author?publisher power imbalances by recasting the publishing contract as a cultural artefact capable of adapting to the industry’s changing landscape. Based on a three-year study of publishing negotiations, Katherine Day reveals how relational contract theory provides possibilities for future negotiations in what she describes as a ‘post negotiation space’.</p> <p>Drawing on the disciplines of cultural studies, law, publishing studies and cultural sociology, this book reveals a unique perspective from publishing professionals and authors within the post negotiation space, presenting the editor as a fundamental agent in the formation and application of publishing’s contractual terms.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Talking College Making Space for Black Language Practices in Higher Education【電子書籍】[ Anne H. Charity Hudley ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>Talking College</em> shows that language is fundamental to Black and African American culture and that linguistic justice is crucial to advancing racial justice, both on college campuses and throughout society. Writing from a linguistics-informed, Black-centered educational framework, the authors draw extensively on Black college students’ lived experiences to present key ideas about African American English and Black language practices. The text presents a model of how Black students navigate the linguistic expectations of college. Grounded in real-world examples of Black undergraduates attending colleges and universities across the United States, the model illustrates the linguistic and cultural balancing acts that arise as Black students work to develop their full linguistic selves. Talking College provides Black students with the knowledge they need to make sense of anti-Black linguistic racism and to make decisions about their linguistic experiences in college. It also offers key insights to help college faculty and staff create the liberating and linguistically just educational community that Black students deserve.</p> <p>Book Features:</p> <ul> <li>Weaves together information and approaches drawn from the authors’ extensive experience working with Black and other students of color in higher education.</li> <li>Provides an up-to-date discussion of Black language practices and their role in Black students’ college experiences.</li> <li>Discusses the racial politics of language, including anti-Black linguistic racism and the struggle for linguistic justice as part of racial justice.</li> <li>Offers a detailed model of Black college students’ diverse linguistic and racial identities.</li> <li>Outlines concrete steps toward racial and linguistic justice that students and faculty can take today.</li> <li>Accessible to students and faculty without a background in linguistics, while also engaging and informative for linguistics scholars.</li> </ul>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Crossing Bar Lines The Politics and Practices of Black Musical Space【電子書籍】[ James Gordon Williams ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In <em>Crossing Bar Lines: The Politics and Practices of Black Musical Space</em> James Gordon Williams reframes the nature and purpose of jazz improvisation to illuminate the cultural work being done by five creative musicians between 2005 and 2019. The political thought of five African American improvisersーtrumpeters Terence Blanchard and Ambrose Akinmusire, drummers Billy Higgins and Terri Lyne Carrington, and pianist Andrew Hillーis documented through insightful, multilayered case studies that make explicit how these musicians articulate their positionality in broader society.</p> <p>Informed by Black feminist thought, these case studies unite around the theory of Black musical space that comes from the lived experiences of African Americans as they improvise through daily life. The central argument builds upon the idea of space-making and the geographic imagination in Black Geographies theory. Williams considers how these musicians interface with contemporary social movements like Black Lives Matter, build alternative institutional models that challenge gender imbalance in improvisation culture, and practice improvisation as joyful affirmation of Black value and mobility. Both Terence Blanchard and Ambrose Akinmusire innovate musical strategies to address systemic violence. Billy Higgins’s performance is discussed through the framework of breath to understand his politics of inclusive space. Terri Lyne Carrington confronts patriarchy in jazz culture through her Social Science music project. The work of Andrew Hill is examined through the context of his street theory, revealing his political stance on performance and pedagogy. All readers will be elevated by this innovative and timely book that speaks to issues that continue to shape the lives of African Americans today.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Reclaiming Our Space How Black Feminists Are Changing the World from the Tweets to the Streets【電子書籍】[ Feminista Jones ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A treatise of Black women’s transformative influence in media and society, placing them front and center in a new chapter of mainstream resistance and political engagement</strong></p> <p>In <em>Reclaiming Our Space</em>, social worker, activist, and cultural commentator Feminista Jones explores how Black women are changing culture, society, and the landscape of feminism by building digital communities and using social media as powerful platforms. As Jones reveals, some of the best-loved devices of our shared social media language are a result of Black women’s innovations, from well-known movement-building hashtags (#BlackLivesMatter, #SayHerName, and #BlackGirlMagic) to the now ubiquitous use of threaded tweets as a marketing and storytelling tool. For some, these online dialogues provide an introduction to the work of Black feminist icons like Angela Davis, Barbara Smith, bell hooks, and the women of the Combahee River Collective. For others, this discourse provides a platform for continuing their feminist activism and scholarship in a new, interactive way.</p> <p>Complex conversations around race, class, and gender that have been happening behind the closed doors of academia for decades are now becoming part of the wider cultural vernacularーone pithy tweet at a time. With these important online conversations, not only are Black women influencing popular culture and creating sociopolitical movements; they are also galvanizing a new generation to learn and engage in Black feminist thought and theory, and inspiring change in communities around them.</p> <p>Hard-hitting, intelligent, incisive, yet bursting with humor and pop-culture savvy, <em>Reclaiming Our Space</em> is a survey of Black feminism’s past, present, and future, and it explains why intersectional movement building will save us all.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Black Space The Nazi Superweapons That Launched Humanity Into Orbit【電子書籍】[ David Axe ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Orbital fortresses poised to fry entire cities with no warning using giant mirrors. Bombers that take off from Earth, punch through the thin border between the atmosphere and vacuum and take advantage of that lofty altitude to speed across the globe on missions of mass destruction. These and other exotic orbital weapons were under consideration, or even active development, in the early decades of humanity’s push into space. And no wonder. The era of frantic, dueling, American and Soviet space-exploration efforts -- which stretched from the end of World War II to the United States’ successful Moon landing in July 1969 -- had its roots in Nazi Germany, a country that pinned its hope for global conquest on equally ambitious superweapons. In the decades following World War II, the top scientists in the U.S. and Soviet space programs were ex-Nazisーmost notably rocket-designer Wernher von Braun, who sided with the Americans. The basic technologies of the space race derived from Nazi superweapons, in particular von Braun’s V-2 rocket. But orbital war never broke out in those heady decades of intense space competition. It’s possible to triangulate the moment the seemingly inevitable became evitable. July 29, 1958. The day U.S. president Dwight Eisenhower reluctantly signed the law creating the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Starting that day, the U.S. military gradually ceded to NASA, a civilian agency, leadership of American efforts in space. Even von Braun, once a leading advocate of orbital warfare, went along. Space-based superweapons and their architects, and the high-stakes politics that reined them in, are the subject of this brief book.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Black Space Negotiating Race, Diversity, and Belonging in the Ivory Tower【電子書籍】[ Sherry L. Deckman ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Protests against racial injustice and anti-Blackness have swept across elite colleges and universities in recent years, exposing systemic racism and raising questions about what it means for Black students to belong at these institutions. In <em>Black Space</em>, Sherry L. Deckman takes us into the lives of the members of the Kuumba Singers, a Black student organization at Harvard with racially diverse members, and a self-proclaimed safe space for anyone but particularly Black students. Uniquely focusing on Black students in an elite space where they are the majority, Deckman provides a case study in how colleges and universities might reimagine safe spaces. Through rich description and sharing moments in students’ everyday lives, Deckman demonstrates the possibilities and challenges Black students face as they navigate campus culture and the refuge they find in this organization. This work illuminates ways administrators, faculty, student affairs staff, and indeed, students themselves, might productively address issues of difference and anti-Blackness for the purpose of fostering critically inclusive campus environments.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
