This book is not only a must read for children. However, it can
serve as a valuable source of information and reference for couples
with children, and who may find value in its reference to
parenting. There's no myth in the fact that within the
African-American community, a lack of education is responsible for
it rapidly decaying. Without intervention, there is little hope in
reversing the current trends plaguing these communities, and our
nation. What affects a few of us, affects all of America. Thus, in
order for us to move forward as a nation, we must come together for
this great cause. For the benefit of all Americans, the ultimate
goal should be to educate, re-direct, and uplift the
African-American community. Reading through chapter one The
Pitfalls of the African-American Community, one can clearly see
that it is rapidly decaying. For example; Black-on Black crime
across America is rampant, out of control, and continues to be at
an all-time high. In addition, the mass-incarceration of Black men
continues to be disproportionate to that of other ethnic groups
across America. Chapter four offers valuable information pertaining
to career planning. Like education, career planning is a valuable
component of success, and is the key to realizing the American
dream. Couples who may be contemplating marriage will find value in
chapter five The Financial Challenges of Marriage and in chapter
six The Essence of Marital Reciprocity. Chapter seven reveals why
ethnic loyalty is of the essence in the African-American community.
While it emphasizes marrying someone of your own ethnic identity,
it does not advocate alienation or separation. Chapter eight,
Emancipation though Education, is included as a solution toward
reversing the negative effects of black on black crime and
subsequent, incarceration related to crimes such as drug dealing,
bank robberies and other incriminating offenses.
What did war look like in the cultural imagination of 1914? Why did
men in Scotland sign up to fight in unprecedented numbers? What
were the martial myths shaping Scottish identity from the aftermath
of Bannockburn to the close of the nineteenth century, and what did
the Scottish soldiers of the First World War think they were
fighting for? Scotland and the First World War: Myth, Memory and
the Legacy of Bannockburn is a collection of new interdisciplinary
essays interrogating the trans-historical myths of nation,
belonging and martial identity that shaped Scotland's encounter
with the First World War. In a series of thematically linked
essays, experts from the fields of literature, history and cultural
studies examine how Scotland remembers war, and how remembering war
has shaped Scotland.
