If you knew you were going to wrestle an alligator in the future, you would do everything in your power to prepare, right? You'd read books on the subject and study the techniques of the most successful alligator wrestlers. And you would most certainly hire an alligator wrestler coach, one who had personally wrestled many a gator.
Alligator wrestling is a most challenging undertaking; trial and error won't cut it in that profession. Well, guess what? Creating a successful life is a far more challenging undertaking. Most folks don't study it in depth, and as a result, they rely on the unpredictable effect of trial and error. At best, taking this path may occasionally lead to pretty good success. Most often, however, it leads to settling for a life that is far below a person's hopes, dreams, and potential. People taking this route often become uncomfortably complacent, a malady endured by the vast majority. I should know, I used to be a "Purdy Good Alligator Rassler" And man, did I suffer as a result. Fortunately, my suffering has been over for many years. I now enjoy the life of my dreams. You can do the same, and this book will show you the way.
If you're only a Purdy Good Alligator Rassler, or even a lousy one, this book will guide you through the treacherous alligator-laden swamps. When you inevitably encounter a gator, you'll know precisely how to wrestle him (or her) successfully. Importantly, you'll learn precisely how to avoid most gators, be they people or difficult circumstances.
It will be my honor to train you in the fine art of Alligator wrestling.

Название: Using Past as Prologue: Contemporary Perspectives on African American Educational History ISBN: 1681231700 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781681231709 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 50820.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In 1978, V. P. Franklin and James D. Anderson co-edited New Perspectives on Black Educational History. For Franklin, Anderson, and their contributors, there were glaring gaps in the historiography of Black education that each of the essays began to fill with new information or fresh perspectives. There have been a number of important studies on the history of African American education in the more than three decades since Franklin and Anderson published their volume that has pushed the field forward.Scholars have redefined the views of Black southern schools as simply inferior, demonstrated the active role Blacks had in creating and sustaining their schools, sharpened our understanding of Black teachers’ and educational leaders’ role in educating Black students and themselves with professional development, provided a better understanding and recognition of the struggles in the North (particularly in urban and metropolitan areas), expanded our thinking about school desegregation and community control, and broadened our understanding of Black experiences and activism in higher education and private schools.Our volume will highlight and expand upon the changes to the field over the last three and a half decades. In the shadow of 60th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education and the 50th anniversary of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, contributors expand on the way African Americans viewed and experienced a variety of educational policies including segregation and desegregation, and the varied options they chose beyond desegregation. The volume covers both the North and South in the 19th and 20th centuries. Contributors explore how educators, administrators, students, and communities responded to educational policies in various settings including K-12 public and private schooling and higher education. A significant contribution of the book is showcasing the growing and concentrated work in the era immediately following the Brown decision. Finally, scholars consider the historian’s engagement with recenthistory, contemporary issues, future directions, methodology, and teaching.
