And yet, We still stand is the second book in the Move Mountain, African-American, single parent series. Book two takes you on a political, social and economic journey from Washington (DC) to Walmart; from the top of the heap to the bottom of the pit and from a strategic agenda of disenfranchisement to its execution in the political, economic and social arenas. We move from impersonal to the personal and from the macro to the micro aspects of the impact on families and children. As the reader travels through the pages, we examine the shadow side of human nature from a political perspective. The descending and ascending order of events that impact the lives of African- Americans is exacerbated among single parents. Hypotheses, reasons, and justifications are put forth with relation to the why and how target groups are treated. We move back in time before the days of the Mayflower to answer the why inquiry and move forward stopping to visit the infamous communication of Willie Lynch to answer the how. Because education is vital to African Americans, we take a critical look at public education on all levels and ask, Are the strategies and techniques used to educate our children by design? Or, are those who develop educational materials using a system of miss education and, or selective education? In our journey we stop to revisit the workplace experiences of fifteen African-American, female, single parents from the later 20th century and ask, when is a change a change? The third section proposes the ultimate recommendation, one that is not popular in many circles yet, is extremely powerful. This is a must read for all!

Many Broken Promises And Yet I Stand written by Henry W. Cabarrus Jr and has been published by FriesenPress this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013-02 with Biography & Autobiography categories.

Henry W Cabarrus, Jr's formative years occurred during the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. A young black male seeking self-identity through family and work, Henry struggled to find himself amidst the surrounding social cacophony. In 1954, the US Supreme Court ruled that segregation in US schools was unconstitutional. The decision kicked off a massive resistance movement in Virginia, where Henry's family lived. In response to the resistance, it was ruled that operation of public schools was a local option for the state's counties and cities, and no provision was made for educating the county's black children. With no education, prospects, or family support, Henry found himself saved from a near suicide attempt. He left Virginia in pursuit of a formal education and his place in the world. College was a struggle, but Henry prevailed, graduating with a 4.0 GPA from Saint Paul's College. Henry's memoir, Many Broken Promises and Yet I Stand!, is part history, part relationships, and part social commentary.

A deadly disease...A rogue band of terrorists...The endless rainforest...And one man with no desire to fight...After escaping the hassles of western society, Logan Pierce had grown comfortable with his unencumbered life in a forgotten village deep in the Borneo rainforest.
