This book is a lively life and times of Nana Asma'u (1793-1864), a West African woman who was a Muslim scholar and poet. As the daughter of the spiritual and political leader of the Sokoto community, Asma'u was a role model and teacher for other Muslim women as well as a scholar of Islam and a key advisor to her father as he waged a jihad to convert the population of what is now present day northwestern Nigeria to Islam. Asma'u's literary legacy, consisting of 65 poems in Arabic, Fulfulde and Hausa, constitutes one of the largest existing collections of 19th-century material from the region. Her poetry has been transmitted - even forged - over the years and is familiar to Hausa Muslims today, attesting to the power and continued relevance of her convictions and achievements. One Woman's Jihad provides a fascinating glimpse into the West African Muslim community at a pivotal point in its history.

Born in Nebraska in 1875, Kate Barnard spent most of her childhood in Kansas, where family dislocation and financial failure darkened her early life. After Barnard and her father moved to Oklahoma Territory in the 1890s, Kate had unsatisfying stints as a schoolteacher and a stenographer before she discovered her life work in politics and social reform. One Woman’s Political Journey: Kate Barnard and Social Reform, 1875—1930 details the life’s work—including the political successes and failures—of a complex and courageous woman who appreciated that she was on the cutting edge of new and novel opportunities for women. Crusading for the disadvantaged, Barnard became a spokeswoman for child labor laws, a compulsory school attendance law, a juvenile justice system, and a modern penal structure. In 1907, at age thirty-two, she became the first woman in the nation elected to a state post—Commissioner of Charities and Corrections, a post created specifically for her by Oklahoma’s constitutional convention. Her dramatic rhetoric and favorable publicity attracted national attention and the admiration of Oklahomans. Convinced that women could effect positive change, she encouraged them to move into the public arena and embrace social justice reform. She also formed a coalition of farmers and laborers that led to the creation of Oklahoma’s Democratic Party. In her first term, Barnard persuaded Oklahoma’s all-male legislature to pass reforms announcing state responsibility for the welfare of children and forced changes in the state’s humanitarian institutions. In her second term, she sought protection for property rights of American Indian children. But Barnard’s career was not without obstacles. Her lack of control over budgets and personnel, along with her frequent clashing with male politicians limited her effectiveness and fueled her growing discouragement with politics. Named by Oklahoma Today as one of the fifty most influential Oklahomans in the past one hundred years, Kate Barnard is finally the deserved focus of a full-length scholarly biography.

Deep Calls Too Deep Over the years, Ive always felt I had a great relationship with the Lord. I was told I was a gifted child. I would hear things or see people that werent there. My grandmother Letha Mae would tell me that it was a gift from God, that he would one day use me to HELP (healing everything life presents) people. Yes, what a life to live! For that reason, I stayed close to God as I could. I lived in much fear and silence in an upside-down world that never stopped turning. The tears I shed and the rejection I witnessed became my personal testimony. I felt I needed to keep this a secret. In order to do so, I talked less. I would dream, and the next day, I would be walking into my dream. They sometimes dictated my day. As a child, Ive always wanted to just grow up, live my life, get married, and have children with God being the center. Im living in a world they say is normal, which seems to take me on a different path in life. The comfort I find in God is that he loves me and he cares for me and Im always on his mind. His favor follows me, and I cant do anything about it. So I choose to love him back. Knowing that he knew me before I was in my mothers womb is amazing to me. The safety of his love takes my fears away as I crawl upon his lap and let him be my God. What I want you to see in my writings is that no matter what youve gone through or where youve been, he cant help but love you. We are to serve and walk in love. Its notes all the time, but it gets easier with the Lords help. It is a learned behavior to choose and do it! I remembered hearing people call out for help. Yet when I looked around, everyone would appear to be very happy. I believe then God was guiding me in a path of faith. Deliverance and healing Im experiencing now in ministry. The biggest challenge is to hear someone calling for HELP and not finding the voice that carries such pain. I fasted and prayed to God for an answer for what to do with what Im hearing. The answer I got was to challenge it by praying and looking for a person. I did, and when I located who that person might have been, she tried to deny it until I sincerely, with oozing love, asked her again, How are you really doing? Then at that point, she burst into uncontrollable tears that I knew as a human being I couldnt handle within myself. God led me every step of what to do, and from then on, I cant help myself. Ladies, in this book alone, we choose to share our stories. What is your story? Remember, one womans cry is another womans cry. You must choose to be loved. Forgive them that wounded you. Win by losing. And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever lose his life shall for my sake shall save it (Luke 9:2324, KJV).

The club, called Help Dan, grew in popularity and was implemented in thirty-eight states.
