Paperback. Condición: Good. Have you ever awakened from a restless night of sleep and just couldn't do it-you couldn't wear that mask another day, acting as though everything were okay. Could anyone possibly understand what you were going through? Or are you on the other side of that coin? Times are tough, though you know people have survived worse. But how do others overcome staggering mountains and valleys? What we wouldn't give to absorb their wisdom. Author Alicia M. Smith sought answers to the questions shared above, questions occupying real estate within the shadows of our minds. Her quest was to speak with said people. Those who understood the struggle and the loneliness-but who could also share their stepping stones toward higher ground. The moments shared by these individuals are humbling, to say the least: A life-altering car accident A woman's quest to escape addiction and life under a bridge A nurtured passion, years of hard work and memories, stolen by Hurricane Katrina A late-night phone call, notifying a woman that the police may have found her husband's body A vision bestowed on a man, moving him and others to walk away from safety and toward the unknown How do these anecdotes apply to you? Are there common denominators? Or are we all separated by our own circumstances and experiences? The lessons gleaned from these testimonies are invaluable-sparks of hope demanding to extinguish the shadows. The essays themselves are tightly paced and engaging.Inspirational without being patronizing; a well-organized collection. -Kirkus Reviews.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Half-breed? Mixed race? What do you call the product of an interracial marriage? And how do you relate?Half-n-Half is a very honest account of the daily struggles faced by such individuals, and it will act as an alarm clock, waking people up to the ethnic diversity of this country and the problems that come with it.Eric M. Smith knows firsthand what life is like for the children of interracial marriages. After all, he lived it.Picture in your mind living on the ninth floor of one of the country's most dangerous housing (Cabrini-Green homes). This was the early setting for Eric Smith and his family.Shootings, drug deals, family fights, police sirens, constant commotion.No, not TV or some modern-day cable program on violence. These were the day-to-day occurrences which were no farther than the floor Eric lived on and definitely not any farther than his own courtyard.And the names flew too: half-breed, high yellow, red bone, yellow nigga, good hair, straight hair, German nigga kids.These are some of the names Eric heard on a daily basis. Those were hood names (White people were a little more subdued, referring to them as mixed kids or mulattos).As you read Eric's story, you will understand the subject of interracial marriage from a whole new perspective, and you will be better prepared to respond to one of the twentieth century's most significant yet unresolved issues.Now that we are in the twenty-first century, are we any closer to accepting people for who they are before looking at their skin color.…
