The year 2020 presented conflicts in higher education, including a
global pandemic, racial protests, cries for Black Lives Matter
following the deaths of Black women and men by police, education
moved online to virtual classrooms, and the U.S. economy struggling
as millions of Americans were furloughed or worked remotely and
ordered everything curbside; all of this compounded by an election
year. This book is a compilation of perspectives shared from
students enrolled in a graduate course on diversity and social
justice in higher education who found community in sharing their
personal and professional experiences associated with identity and
allyship development, socialization, activism, institutionalized
racism, academic traditions, advising, to implications for change
in higher education policies, processes, and practice.
The rationale for the present text, Hollywood or History? An
Inquiry-Based Strategy for Using Film to Teach About Inequality and
Inequity Throughout History stems from two main things. First and
foremost is the fact that the reviews of the first two volumes in
the Hollywood or History? series have been overwhelmingly positive,
especially as it pertains to the application of the strategy for
practitioners. Classroom utility and teacher practice have
continued to be the primary objectives in developing the Hollywood
or History? strategy. The second thing is that this most recent
volume in the series takes it in a new direction--rather than
focusing on eras in history, it focuses on the themes of inequity
and inequality throughout history, and how teachers can utilize the
Hollywood or History? strategy to tackle some of the more
complicated content throughout history that many teachers tend to
shy away from. There is a firm belief that students' connection to
film, along with teachers' ability to use film in an effective
manner, will help alleviate some of the challenges of teaching
challenging topics such as inequity and inequality in terms of
gender, race, socioeconomic status, and so much more. The book
provides 30 secondary lesson plans (grades 6-12) that address nine
different topics centered around inequity and inequality throughout
history, many of which connect students to the world we are living
in today. The intended audience for the book are teachers who teach
social studies at the 6th-12th grade level both in the United
States and other countries. An additional audience will be college
and university social studies/history methods professors in the
United States and worldwide.

How to Read a Folktale offers the first English translation of
Ibonia, a spellbinding tale of old Madagascar. Ibonia is a folktale
on epic scale. Much of its plot sounds familiar: a powerful royal
hero attempts to rescue his betrothed from an evil adversary and,
after a series of tests and duels, he and his lover are joyfully
united with a marriage that affirms the royal lineage. These
fairytale elements link Ibonia with European folktales, but the
tale is still very much a product of Madagascar. It contains
African-style praise poetry for the hero; it presents
Indonesian-style riddles and poems; and it inflates the form of
folktale into epic proportions. Recorded when the Malagasy people
were experiencing European contact for the first time, Ibonia
proclaims the power of the ancestors against the foreigner. Through
Ibonia, Lee Haring expertly helps readers to understand the very
nature of folktales. His definitive translation, originally
published in 1994, has now been fully revised to emphasize its
poetic qualities, while his new introduction and detailed notes
give insight into the fascinating imagination and symbols of the
Malagasy. Haring's research connects this exotic narrative with
fundamental questions not only of anthropology but also of literary
criticism. This book is part of our World Oral Literature Series in
conjunction with the World Oral Literature Project.
The Little Library Life Skills Kit (along with the Literacy and
Numeracy Kits) was initially developed to respond to a need for
high quality, indigenous books for the younger members of our
communities. After ten years successful use in schools, the kits
have now been revised to meet the changing needs of learners,
schools and the new education policies. The Life Skills Kit focuses
on promoting life skills to learners of five to nine years of age,
as stated in the National Curriculum Statement. I'm a lot like you
