Winner of the 2020 Society of Professors of Education Outstanding Book Award Drawing on personal stories, research, and historical events, an esteemed educator offers a vision of educational justice inspired by the rebellious spirit and methods of abolitionists. Drawing on her life’s work of teaching and researching in urban schools, Bettina Love persuasively argues that educators must teach students about racial violence, oppression, and how to make sustainable change in their communities through radical civic initiatives and movements. She argues that the US educational system is maintained by and profits from the suffering of children of color. Instead of trying to repair a flawed system, educational reformers offer survival tactics in the forms of test-taking skills, acronyms, grit labs, and character education, which Love calls the educational survival complex. To dismantle the educational survival complex and to achieve educational freedom—not merely reform—teachers, parents, and community leaders must approach education with the imagination, determination, boldness, and urgency of an abolitionist. Following in the tradition of activists like Ella Baker, Bayard Rustin, and Fannie Lou Hamer, We Want to Do More Than Survive introduces an alternative to traditional modes of educational reform and expands our ideas of civic engagement and intersectional justice.

Are you:-- seeking to renew a relationship? -- considering a new relationship? -- troubled with establishing a long-term relationship? -- divorced and trying to understand why your marriage failed? -- experiencing problems in love, romance, sex, intimacy or marriage? -- a therapist or counselor who would like to provide an accessible resource for your clients? -- Millions of books on relationships have been printed over the years. Why do we need another? We need The Art of Love: The Craft of Relationship for the same reasons that over four and a half million readers wanted Spencer Johnson's Who Moved My Cheese. Following Johnson's methods of teaching to a broad, modern audience, The Art of Love: The Craft of Relationship presents the profound principles that form a loving relationship in an easily accessible manner. Using a very simple approach, it will help people shift their attitudes and provide them with the skills to create loving, long-lasting partnerships. There are so many titles in print on change because it is an ongoing challenge for most of us. So are relationships. With more than six decades of experience working with couples, we knew we had vital information, lessons, and insights to share, but we insisted that the book be short, engaging, and easy to read. A helpful book does not have to be dense to be packed with wisdom, skills, and ideas that can open the door to a new era of fulfilling relationships. We have brought complex material and common sense into a format that is carefully constructed to achieve results by being communicative and consistent, enjoyable and hopeful. Unlike the textbook appearance of most self-help books that include psychological jargon, case examples and exercises, The Art of Love: The Craft of Relationship uses stories and dialogue to teach profound insights and valuable skills. It sticks to people talking in a way the reader can identify with and understand. It brings hope because the reader who is experiencing stress in a relationship can see that other people, like them, are, too. And, that learning a few basic skills can bring lasting change and renew love. The best news is that our book will be useful to many people because it will give them a new way to look at their relationship and the skills to handle problem after problem in a way that builds love and trust. Our mission is to appeal strongly to those who are considering a relationship, seeking to renew one, or are looking for a way to understand a partner and a process for dealing with problems in love, romance, sex, intimacy and living together.
Elena Murzello cannot imagine going to the grocery store without a list. As she strolls through the aisles, she relies on her list to make sure she gets her must-haves and to help keep her from grabbing items she does not need. It was with this theory in mind that, at age twenty-one, she created a list of characteristics for a potential lifelong mate that still guides her love choices to this day. In The Love List, Elena shares her real- life experiences as well as information gathered from more than a hundred single, divorced, and married men and women about the qualities they look for in a life partner. Abstracting details from her interviews she created a process that anyone can use to create his or her own lists. Along with introspective questions to ponder, Elena includes sample lists of characteristics, the top three traits both men and women seek in a partner, an exploration of different types of relationships, and ways to diversify a portfolio of suitors. The Love List provides practical tips and personal stories to encourage single people to look deep within, take risks, and learn to rely on their own unique lists while searching for the perfect mate.
An inspiring memoir of life, love, loss, and new beginnings by the widower of bestselling children’s author and filmmaker Amy Krouse Rosenthal, whose last of act of love before her death was setting the stage for her husband’s life without her in the viral New York Times Modern Love column, “You May Want to Marry My Husband.” On March 3, 2017, Amy Krouse Rosenthal penned an op-ed piece for the New York Times’ “Modern Love” column —”You May Want to Marry My Husband.” It appeared ten days before her death from ovarian cancer. A heartbreaking, wry, brutally honest, and creative play on a personal ad—in which a dying wife encouraged her husband to go on and find happiness after her demise—the column quickly went viral, reaching more than five million people worldwide. In My Wife Said You May Want to Marry Me, Jason describes what came next: his commitment to respecting Amy’s wish, even as he struggled with her loss. Surveying his life before, with, and after Amy, Jason ruminates on love, the pain of watching a loved one suffer, and what it means to heal—how he and their three children, despite their profound sorrow, went on. Jason’s emotional journey offers insights on dying and death and the excruciating pain of losing a soulmate, and illuminates the lessons he learned. As he reflects on Amy’s gift to him—a fresh start to fill his empty space with a new story—Jason describes how he continues to honor Amy’s life and her last wish, and how he seeks to appreciate every day and live in the moment while trying to help others coping with loss. My Wife Said You May Want to Marry Me is the poignant, unreserved, and inspiring story of a great love, the aftermath of a marriage ended too soon, and how a surviving partner eventually found a new perspective on life’s joys in the wake of tremendous loss.
Many people say that they want equality, but their actions don't support their claim. They make demands that can only be achieved by taking from others. This is no way to achieve equality.We Want EQUALITY, delves into the issues of inequality, discussing hard truths and explaining why human deficiencies cannot be corrected through legislation.In the book, Love starts with a history lesson, examining past horrors and showing why human nature is an impediment to true equality. Armed with logic, Love explains why our problem is cultural, not inequality. He demonstrates how the decline of traditional values has led to pervasive nihilism and feelings of entitlement.Next, Love deftly addresses four areas that encapsulate perceived inequality: Race, Income, Gender and Religion. The book answers important questions like: Why asking racists to fix racism gets you nowhere?Why reparations are better than affirmative action?Are the police hunting down black men?Why CEO salaries are not the problem?Why trying to 'fix' boys will backfire?Why the Left defends Islam?We Want EQUALITY discusses the strong and growing role the media, entertainment, big business and politicians play in the diminution of traditional values. Love then sites numerous examples of how cultural manipulation by the Left is hurting the country. Finally, he provides steps we can take to bring the country back from the brink.Love makes the argument for a union between liberals and conservatives against a common enemy, the Left. Liberals, he argues, should push back against the extreme arguments and behavior of the Left. Where they feel there are injustices that need to be addressed, he gives them suggestions to improve conditions without relying solely on government solutions.For conservatives, the book is an instructional manual on how to advance conservative principles without being labeled as insensitive or a racist. It also gives examples of how to respond to leftist ideas and what to do when they try to make every conversation about Trump.We Want Equality is the book we need for the current political climate. It is painfully honest and bound to invoke a visceral reaction in everyone who reads it. Readers will walk away with a renewed desire for clear and honest exchange of ideas. It is a call to the famed 'silent majority', alerting them that if they remain silent, they will no longer be the majority

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Du Bois’s words struck a chord with me, as I know that I, as a dark person, want to matter and live, not just survive. I want to thrive, and I want to create new systems and structures for educational, political, economic, and community freedom. #2 To matter to yourself and your students, you must matter enough to fight for justice. To dark people, that is often difficult to conceptualize, given how they are treated by their country. #3 Intersectionality is the idea that different identities, such as race, gender, and sexuality, can interact with each other and affect how a person is treated in a given situation. It is not just about listing and naming your identities, but about understanding community power and inclusivity in social justice movements. #4 Intersectionality not only helps us understand the different communities we belong to, but it also helps us understand how those communities are oppressed in different ways by different institutions.
