"Still Ain't Satisfied -- Canadian women certainly aren't! And this collection of twenty-seven articles on the major women's issues of the decade shows why feminists have only begun to fight. Women are still paid less than their male counterparts, rape and wife battering remain brutal social problems and inadequate day care still threatens women's right to work. These and many other injustices that undermine more than fifty percent of Canada's population are thoughtfully explored in this timely and provocative book.Talented writers from across the country review the dynamic changes in the women's movement over the last ten years. Controversial issues like abortion, pornography, sexuality and women and work are examined. Non-traditional jobs for women, rape and day care are only a few of the many concerns brought into focus. Still Ain't Satisfied provides a stimulating look at some of the most important issues of our time, issues which have touched the lives of all individuals in this country." --
An autobiographical novel of race and class by one of the leading Black writers of the 20th century
A New York jazz musician discovers he has a half-brother—a king in Kenya—and embarks on a journey to Africa that turns into a spiritual odyssey. When a copper deposit is discovered on the land of the Makenda tribe in eastern Kenya, a young king, Ule Samanga, is told to relocate his people to a refugee camp in Nairobi or risk imprisonment. When all appears lost, the young king discovers the existence of Curtis Jackson, a mysterious half brother presently living in New York. Believing this unexpected news to be an omen from the spirit of his ancestors, he eagerly seeks Curtis’s help to save their sacred tribal homeland. A struggling mortgage broker and former jazz prodigy, Curtis initially has no interest in developing a relationship with his newly found African family. But when he’s presented with an intriguing business offer, he embarks on a journey to Africa that becomes a spiritual odyssey, changing him in ways he never imagined. In this assured debut, Richard Crystal weaves a complex story of contemporary moral imperatives conceived during Obama’s victorious election as America’s first black president. Themes of corporate malfeasance and exploitation will resonate with readers of The Constant Gardener and Blood Diamond. But beyond the various political machinations, readers will find a heartwarming story infused with the strains of Coltrane, the history of jazz, and the enduring power of family.
Crossing the North Atlantic Ocean in a small sailboat is no longer a news-grabbing event. Recent advances in navigation and communication equipment, unavailable a few short years ago, have greatly improved sailors chances of survival and success. Nevertheless, the waters of the North Atlantic Ocean still present many different moods and difficultoften extremechallenges. In 1996 three Lake Ontario sailors from TorontoHenk Borsboom, Peter Becker and the author, Dick Grannandecided to accept the challenges of the North Atlantic Ocean on RABASKA (big canoe), a thirty-seven foot Alberg sailboat. The adventure had a huge impact on their lives, and their memories tell fascinating stories of what they experienced on that trip. Many sailors who write about cruising have a chapter about The Storm. Crossing the North Atlantic Ocean in 1996 was not about just one major storm, but a series of them that nearly defeated their spirit and courage. The sailors faced relentless challenges when they crossed the worlds second-largest ocean in a small sailboat. Grannan tells how they worked together as a team, and how the trip enabled them to rearrange their priorities and to get more in touch with their everyday lives.
