Title: Fugitive Pedagogy: Carter G. Woodson and the Art of Black Teaching

Author: Jarvis R. Givens

Narrator: Leon Nixon

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11:12:13

Language: English

Release date: 04-12-22

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Non-Fiction, North America, Social Science, Education

Summary:

A fresh portrayal of one of the architects of the African American intellectual tradition, whose faith in the subversive power of education will inspire teachers and learners today.

Black education was a subversive act from its inception. African Americans pursued education through clandestine means, often in defiance of law and custom, even under threat of violence. They developed what Jarvis Givens calls a tradition of 'fugitive pedagogy'-a theory and practice of Black education in America. The enslaved learned to read in spite of widespread prohibitions; newly emancipated people braved the dangers of integrating all-White schools and the hardships of building Black schools. Teachers developed covert instructional strategies, creative responses to the persistence of White opposition. From slavery through the Jim Crow era, Black people passed down this educational heritage.

There is perhaps no better exemplar of this heritage than Carter G. Woodson-groundbreaking historian, founder of Black History Month, and legendary educator under Jim Crow. Givens shows that Woodson succeeded because of the world of Black teachers to which he belonged: Woodson's first teachers were his formerly enslaved uncles; he himself taught for nearly thirty years; and he spent his life partnering with educators to transform the lives of Black students.

Title: Looking Like the Enemy: My Story of Imprisonment in Japanese American Internment Camps

Author: Mary Matsuda Gruenewald

Narrator: Emily Woo Zeller

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10:30:29

Language: English

Release date: 04-12-22

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Non-Fiction, North America, Social Science

Summary:

The author at 16 years old was evacuated with her family to an internment camp for Japanese Americans, along with 110,000 other people of Japanese ancestry living on the West Coast. She faced an indefinite sentence behind barbed wire in crowded, primitive camps. She struggled for survival and dignity, and endured psychological scarring that has lasted a lifetime.

This memoir is told from the heart and mind of a woman now nearly eighty years old who experienced the challenges and wounds of her internment at a crucial point in her development as a young adult. She brings passion and spirit to her story. Like The Diary of Anne Frank, this memoir superbly captures the emotional and psychological essence of what it was like to grow up in the midst of this profound dislocation and injustice in the US. Few other books on this subject come close to the emotional power and moral significance of this memoir.

In the end, the listener is buoyed by what Mary learns from her experiences and what she is able to do with her life. In 2005 she becomes one more Nissei who breaks her silence.

She's a friend of a friend, which makes her off-limits until temptation takes me by the balls and I'm taking her up against a wall. She literally f*cks my world off its axis, but I can't let it happen again.

My plan of avoiding her got blown to shit when my firm hired her as a new junior attorney. Now I'm her boss, and I have to act like I don't want to bend her over my desk every five minutes.

But I've never held myself back from anything before, so consequences be damned. It's time to take what we both want and show her just how damn good feels . . . to be ruthless.

Title: Apache: Inside the Cockpit of the Worlds Most Deadly Fighting Machine

Author: Ed Macy

Narrator: Roger Wayne

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:43:22

Language: English

Release date: 04-12-22

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Military

Summary:

'A truly amazing portrayal of the technical, the emotional, and the courageous. Macy puts the reader in the cockpit of our most lethal attack platform.' -Dick Couch, New York Times bestselling author

Apache is the incredible true story of Ed Macy, a decorated Apache helicopter pilot, that takes you inside one of the world's most dangerous war machines. A firsthand account of the exhilaration and ferocity of war, Apache chronicles a rescue mission involving a stranded soldier in Afghanistan in 2007.

Ed Macy had always dreamed of a career in the army, so when the British Army Air Corps launched its attack helicopter program, Macy bent every rule in the book to make sure he was the first to sign up to fly the Apache-the deadliest, most technically advanced helicopter in the world and the toughest to fly. In 2007, Macy's Apache squadron was dispatched to Afghanistan's notorious Helmand Province with the mission to fight alongside and protect the men on the ground by any means necessary. When a marine goes missing in action, Macy and his team know they are the Army's only hope of bringing him back alive. Apache is Macy's story-an adrenalin-fueled account of one of the most daring actions of modern wartime, and a tale of courage, danger, and comradeship you won't be able to put down.
