Описание: When a school presentation goes very wrong, Alaine Beauparlant finds herself suspended, shipped off to Haiti and writing the report of a lifetime...You might ask the obvious question: What do I, a seventeen-year-old Haitian American from Miami with way too little life experience, have to say about anything?Actually, a lot.Thanks to "the incident" (don't ask), I'm spending the next two months doing what my school is calling a "spring volunteer immersion project." It's definitely no vacation. I'm toiling away under the ever-watchful eyes of Tati Estelle at her new nonprofit. And my lean-in queen of a mother is even here to make sure I do things right. Or she might just be lying low to dodge the media sharks after a much more public incident of her own...and to hide a rather devastating secret.All things considered, there are some pretty nice perks...like flirting with Tati's distractingly cute intern, getting actual face time with my mom and experiencing Haiti for the first time. I'm even exploring my family's history--which happens to be loaded with betrayals, superstitions and possibly even a family curse.You know, typical drama. But it's nothing I can't handle.

Описание: Maritza's existence is lonely and cold for as long as she could remember from the very beginning. Her wealthy parents, who reside in New York, have no interest in raising her, so she grows up in a boarding school in England. She spends her life disconnected from her family, physically and emotionally, and knows nothing about the world. When her schooling is over, her nonexistent family ties are broken, and she is left to decide how to live her life. She meets Alfonso and she discovers the thrills of life when he introduces her to a world she didn't know existed. Maritza meets interesting people who indulge in wild sex parties. This dull ordinary girl evolves into a woman when she discovers love, sexual abandon, fashion, and her purpose. She creates a family of her own as she becomes an international icon with an extreme passion for sex and adventure.

Описание:

Jennifer Maritza McCauley's 'Scar On/Scar Off' is by turns neon-lit and beating, defiant and clashing, searching and struggling, in fistfuls of recognition, in constant pursuit of intersections and dualities. Drawing on Audre Lorde, Gloria Anzaldua, Toni Morrison, Claudia Rankine, and the inspirations of her late friend Monica A. Hand, through polyglossia and hybrid text, McCauley evokes vividly the relationships between psyche and city, identity and language. In the rhythm and snap of these poems and fragmentary stories, we find echoes of Sarah Webster Fabio, Beyonce, flamenco, Nikki Giovanni, street slang, danger and hope. This is a profound collection, a rebel language.

Описание: Numerous books explore the “how to” of qualitative research, but few discuss what it means to actually engage in it. In Demarginalizing Voices, scholars share personal stories about their research with marginalized populations, including Aboriginal peoples, sex workers, the dead and the dying, the imprisoned or recently released, and the homeless and hospitalized. They address issues of activism, emotional attachment, and the challenges of adopting innovative methods within the constraints of ethics review boards. These powerful accounts from the cutting-edge of qualitative research not only create a space in academia that centres marginalized voices, they open up the field to new debates and discussion.

Описание: What if you only had one chance to get a story that could change your future? What would you do? Would you betray your best friends? How far would you go to get that byline? Penelope, Sofia, Carla, Marisabel, and Raquel are best friends and acting members of The Ghostwriters, an international writers group for teen girls. They have it all: talent, looks, popularity, and a strong friendship. The Green Lot writing assignment should be just like any another. Instead, it turns out to be the one that reveals who the true friends are, as well as some family secrets. Penelope travels to Madrid and back to her dorm in Cuenca, determined to get the byline to save her spot at the Institute of Madrid de las Bellas Artes. Going against the club's motto: "Friendship first, byline last" and discovering the true value of everything she is in danger of losing will be more challenging than untangling the mystery surrounding The Green Lot.
