"Once in a while, a writer comes along with a brilliance that stops
the breath. Kim Coleman Foote is that writer." --Jacqueline
Woodson, National Book Award-winning author of Red at the Bone"A
masterpiece. Brilliant, vivid, heartbreaking, epic, beautiful, raw
and true . . . This is the American story." ―Andrew Sean Greer,
Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less Is Lost"Kim Coleman Foote has
the rare talent of completely immersing you in time and place . . .
A sweeping yet intimate family saga." --Sarah Jessica Parker
Coleman Hill is the exhilarating story of two American families
whose fates become intertwined in the wake of the Great Migration.
Braiding fact and fiction, it is a remarkable, character-rich tour
de force exploring the ties that bind three generations. In 1916,
during the early days of the Great Migration, Celia Coleman and
Lucy Grimes flee the racism and poverty of their homes in the
post-Civil War South for the "Promised Land" of Vauxhall, New
Jersey. But the North possesses its own challenges and bigotries
that will shape the fates of the women and their families over the
next seventy years. Told through the voices of nine family
members--their perspectives at once harmonious and
contradictory--Coleman Hill is a penetrating multigenerational
debut. Within ten years of arriving in Vauxhall, both Celia and
Lucy's husbands are dead, and they turn to one another for support
in raising their children far from home. Lucy's gentleness sets
Celia at ease, and Celia lends Lucy her fire when her friend wants
to cower. Encouraged by their mothers' friendship, their children's
lives become enmeshed as well. As the children grow into
adolescence, two are caught in an impulsive act of impropriety, and
Celia and Lucy find themselves at irreconcilable odds over who's to
blame. The ensuing fallout has dire consequences that reverberate
through the next two generations of their families. A stunning
biomythography--a word coined by the late great writer Audre
Lorde--Coleman Hill draws from the author's own family legend,
historical record, and fervent imagination to create an
unforgettable new history. The result is a kaleidoscopic novel
whose intergenerational arc emerges through a series of miniatures
that contain worlds.
This thoroughly revised second edition Handbook examines the latest
knowledge and perspectives on digital politics. Through new content
on digital populism, filter bubbles, algorithmic power, AI,
non-Western digital politics, election communication regulation and
right-wing alternative news media, contributors challenge the
binary of cyber-optimism and cyber-pessimism and argue for a more
nuanced understanding of political change. Arranged around key
themes, this Handbook investigates the meaning of digital politics
and analyses the impact of new technologies and platforms on
politics. Chapters consider the digital reconfiguration of civic
practices, political institutions and journalism. Leading scholars
provide original, incisive and provocative insights into
cutting-edge issues, exploring how the expansion of digital
technologies, channels and styles shapes political dynamics.
Providing a broad and in-depth overview of digital politics, this
Handbook will be an invaluable resource for researchers, educators
and students of politics, media and communication studies,
journalism, technology and governance. It will also be essential
reading for political practitioners, policy-makers and strategists
seeking to better understand the digital world.
