Book SynopsisThe chapters in this volume study transnational social relationships and cross-border connections between âordinaryâ people that arise from the increasingly large-scale mobilities and migrations between Thailand and âthe Westâ. While Thai and Western peopleâs social relationships are usually studied as personal stories within a cross-border marriage migration perspective, this book considers it necessary to see them as more than marriage migration.Even though a focus on the âpersonal life storiesâ of marriage migrants provides valuable insights, it can also mask consideration of the structural context of socially embedded cross- border connections and exchanges, as well as state restrictions, that, first, make peopleâs decisions to move a possibility in the first place, and second, shape a migrantâs post- migration life- trajectory and experiences, relative to others in their origin and settlement societies. The chapters on Thai women who marry and move with older Western menTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Speaking my Soul

15 in stock

Book SynopsisSpeaking My Soul is the honest story of linguist John R. Rickford's life from his early years as the youngest of ten children in Guyana to his status as Emeritus Professor of Linguistics at Stanford, of the transformation of his identity from colored or mixed race in Guyana to black in the USA, and of his work championing Black Talk and its speakers.This is an inspiring story of the personal and professional growth of a black scholar, from his life as an immigrant to the USA to a world-renowned expert who has made a leading contribution to the study of African American life, history, language and culture. In this engaging memoir, Rickford recalls landmark events for his racial identity like being elected president of the Black Student Association at the University of California, Santa Cruz; learning from black expeditions to the South Carolina Sea Islands, Jamaica, Belize and Ghana; and meeting or interviewing civil rights icons like Huey P. Newton, Rosa Parks and SoutTrade ReviewSpeaking my Soul: Race, Life and Language is a fascinating account of a life that started in colonial British Guiana (now Guyana) but is transformed by emigration to the United States in the turbulent late 1960s. Arrival here as a college student challenges Rickford to the core. The embracing Black Power movement presents him with a chance to discover a self essentially misled in British Guiana; seizing that chance, he exorcises some of the main colonialist demons, especially those involving the privilege of possessing a "light" skin color that is often a barrier between him, and others like him, and the black masses. Finding in the study of sociolinguistics a field of inquiry that reinforces his new self-perception, he becomes an expert above all on the dignity and integrity of "Black English." In a crucial way, this is an act of love, and love is a crucial feature here: above all, love of family and love of academia but also love of the masses of people everywhere. This is a notable, instructive story of a remarkable life and career.Arnold Rampersad, author of biographies of Jackie Robinson, Langston Hughes, and Ralph Ellison, and co-author of Arthur Ashe: Days of Grace, a MemoirIn this remarkable and compelling story about love, family, poetry, language, education, activism, and the evolution of identity and acceptance, John R. Rickford illuminates the transatlantic ties that bind Caribbean, African, and African American cultures, and the complexities of race that informed his own journey from Guyana to the U.S.Tracey L. Weldon, author, Middle Class African American EnglishRickford is not just one of the first scholars of color to study modern sociolinguistics. His model as an educator, family member, and friend has made our profession more humble, kinder, and more caring. He is a transformative figure who has written a captivating account of his journey from the single bedroom with nine kids in Guyana to the leader of the sociolinguistic world. A riveting, inspirational account!Walt Wolfram, author of Dialects and American English, Appalachian English, and Talkin’ Tar HeelSpeaking my Soul: Race, Life and Language is such a moving memoir—at once a highly personal family story, and yet one with insights that make this book also an invaluable contribution to Black Studies, Diasporic Studies, and the emerging field of Critical Mixed Race Studies. Rickford’s intimate family account of his own complex racial heritage, paired with an insider’s view of a field of research that he himself shaped, is a wholly engrossing read. The divine irony that this world-renowned pioneer in sociolinguistics temporarily lost his speech after a stroke makes this memoir an even more poignant reflection on life and language.Michele Elam, author of The Souls of Mixed Folk and editor of The Cambridge Companion to James BaldwinThis moving and honest memoir is crucial to understanding the wider reaches of identity in a multi-racial former British colony, and by extension, to the much- discussed question of identity in today’s instantly connected global world. Having himself in 2019 suffered an unexpected stroke (an illness that had killed his father), Rickford was motivated to further explore his family tree…This leads Rickford to discover a web of ancestral connections (African, East Indian, Amerindian, Scottish) that bear witness to Guyana’s diverse racial heritage. … in this memoir, Rickford invites us to sit with the unseen ancestors that inhabit his house of memory.From the Foreword by John Agard, author of Half-Caste, numerous other books of poetry, and winner of the 2012 Queen’s Gold Medal for Poetry…it is Rickford’s humanity that shines through these pages, showing how diversity is one of the world’s most valuable resources, how diversity arises from the chances and challenges of ordinary people’s lives, and how academic study, far from meaning elite confinement in an ivory tower, can show how knowledge is not only power but enrichment of everybody’s lives.Michael Mitchell, University of Warwick, UKDr. John Rickford is the heart of Black language and linguistics scholarship because of what you see and feel in Speaking My Soul from the very beginning: family and friends. I am glad John made his way from Guyana to the U.S. and developed his "Black complex" that led him to expand our knowledge and understanding of Black languages and Black lives. The homage to his award-winning book co-authored with his son only serves to enshrine him as the heart and soul for those of us who do (Black) language. And though he may have often been the "runt of the litter" in various instances in his life, he is definitely our rock. Thank you for speaking to my soul. Sonja L.

Book SynopsisCreating Spaces of Wellbeing and Belonging for Refugee and Asylum-Seeker Students: Skills and Strategies for Classroom Teachers outlines the ways educators can support positive educational and social outcomes for the most vulnerable children in their communities.Each chapter briefly outlines the relevant theory, expanding on this through vignettes from research and analytical reflection, helping the reader identify and apply the differentiated pedagogical understandings in their own classrooms. Providing insights from educators who are doing this work successfully across the globe, the book highlights the challenges and considerations that teachers face in multilingual, multicultural classroom environments where studentsâ common experience is trauma and loss and guides them towards effective practice.This book is intended for use in schools by school leaders and classroom teachers and by educational professionals engaged in supporting schools with students witTrade Review'Poverty, famine, lack of opportunity, climate change, and armed conflict among other factors have created the largest global diaspora that the world has ever seen. Millions of children with refugee and asylum seeking experiences, many who have experienced devasting and traumatic losses, currently attend schools in their new countries. This valuable book includes interviews with primary and secondary teachers in five English speaking countries who have worked successfully in educating these students, and shares the teachers’ reflections and practices that are linked to their success in educating these students. The authors connect the teachers’ stories to the theories and research that supports them. This book is a valuable resource for both teachers and the teacher educators who prepare them to teach.'Ken Zeichner, Boeing Professor of Teacher Education Emeritus, University of Washington, USA.'It is a shocking fact there are upwards of 84 million refugees and asylum seekers across the world. This ambitious, profound and humane book provides powerful evidence on the best ways of educating displaced children and young people. It looks through the lens of science and mathematics education alongside the vital need to focus on students' growth and personal development with a deep understanding about the roles and responsibilities of teachers. Refugees are not a burden but a massive asset to societies. As the book concludes, teaching is the profession that can make a difference in both securing society's inclusion of refugees and asylum seekers and in enabling society to understand that it is enriched by their diverse ways of knowing and understanding.'David Edwards, PhD, General Secretary, Education International.Table of ContentsIntroduction 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Word from the Mother

15 in stock

Book SynopsisThis classic text by Geneva Smitherman, pioneering scholar of Black Talk, is a definitive statement on African American Language (AAL). Enriched by her inimitable writing style, the book outlines past debates on the speech of African Americans and provides a vision for the future. As global manifestations of AAL increase, she argues that we must broaden our conception of the language and its speakers, and further examine the implications of gender, age and class on AAL. Perhaps most of all we must appreciate the artistic and linguistic genius of AAL, from Hip Hop lyrics to the rhyme and rhetoric of the broader Black speech community. Smitherman explores AAL''s contribution to American English, includes a summary of expressions as a suggested linguistic core of AAL, and features cartoons that educate readers on the broader relationship between language, race, and racism. This classic edition features a new foreword by H. Samy Alim, celebrating Smitherman''s contiTrade Review"Many scholars, students and laypersons across the globe have an informed appreciation for the Language of Black America, because they got the Word from the Mother, Dr. Geneva Smitherman. Like no other, 'Dr. G,' the Signifying mother, captures the wit, humor, joy and critical edge that speaks forth from this language of history, culture and experience of the descendants of enslaved African people in these 'United' States of America. This is a classic text and precious gem from an OLE SKOOL Womanist scholar of the people that should be read by generations to come!"Elaine Richardson, Ohio State University, USA, author of Hiphop Literacies and African American Literacies"As Aretha Franklin is the Queen of Soul, 'Dr. G,' as she’s affectionately known, is the Queen of Black Language. She gave us the name 'African American Language' to express the expansiveness of language use in African American communities.

Taylor & Francis Ltd International Migration and Citizenship Today

15 in stock

This completely revised and updated textbook explores the moral, economic, political, and cultural dimensions of the movement of people across international borders. In style and substance, it is designed to spark thoughtful discussions and to challenge readers to draw their own conclusions to questions such as how should democracies balance the rights of immigrants with those of citizens? What exactly constitutes persecution and how should we define a refugee? How should democracies allocate citizenship? Can and should a distinction be made between voluntary and forced migration, and does one group of migrants deserve admission more than the other? What does a reasonable border policy look like? The rise of populism, the vote for Brexit, and the unprecedented flow of refugees around the world are all evidence that these questions remain highly salient, controversial, and unresolved. The content has been thoroughly updated to cover: Migration into Europe since 2015.

Taylor & Francis The Rebirth of Antisemitism in the 21st Century

15 in stock

Book SynopsisThe Rebirth of Antisemitism in the 21st Century is about the rise of antizionism and antisemitism in the first two decades of the 21st century, with a focus on the UK.It is written by the activist-intellectuals, both Jewish and not, who led the opposition to the campaign for an academic boycott of Israel. Their experiences convinced them that the boycott movement, and the antizionism upon which it was based, was fuelled by, and in turn fuelled, antisemitism. The book shows how the level of hostility towards Israel exceeded the hostility which is levelled against other states. And it shows how the quality of that hostility tended to resonate with antisemitic tropes, images and emotions. Antizionism positioned Israel as symbolic of everything that good people oppose, it made Palestinians into an abstract symbol of the oppressed, and it positioned most Jews as saboteurs of social âprogressâ. The book shows how antisemitism broke into mainstream politics and how it contamiTrade Review"The contributors to this book, in their political beliefs, their lived experiences and their academic rigour, give key intellectual insights into the antisemitic impacts, heritage and resonances of so-called ‘antizionism’."Mark Gardner MBE, Chief Executive, Community Security Trust (CST), UK"Far from being a fringe phenomenon, antisemitism is today an increasingly troubling presence in mainstream British society, especially in its often stri- dent anti-Zionist manifestations. In this timely and insightful book, David Hirsch and his colleagues address the pertinent issues head-on and offer valuable explanations for the nature of this hostility and the threats it poses. The latter are serious and warrant the detailed scrutiny readers will find in this clarifying volume."Alvin H. Rosenfeld, Professor of English and Jewish Studies, Director of the Institute for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism, Indiana University, USA"Tracking Jew-hatred through its labyrinths of lies is not thought to make easy reading, but this unmasking of anti-Zionism’s falsity and dishonour is so exhilaratingly assured and eagle-eyed you cannot put it down. An indispensable work."Howard Jacobson, novelist and essayist"Few relationships are as bitterly contested on the left as that between antizionism and antisemitism. No one has done more to clarify that relationship, and what is at stake in seeing it plain, than David Hirsh and the writers, mostly from the democratic and ‘two-state’ left, whose work is collected in this volume. It should be required reading for anyone seeking to enter the debate in the future."Alan Johnson, Founder and Editor of Fathom"These are thoughtful essays by scholars, Jewish and non-Jewish, who were first connected by their opposition to the academic boycott of Israeli academics. They are connected anew in this publication by a bold central argument – that hostility towards the state of Israel exceeds that towards other states and does so in ways that bristle with tropes and feelings that are familiar from older forms of antisemitic hate and violence. Many will disagree, but the real freshness of this book is the connection it proposes between certain political construals of Israel and the real and awful reality of antisemitism, as it is increasingly lived every day. In this it is an important book, the very writing of which is an act of courage – and potentially, of hope."Frances Corner, Warden, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK"This compelling book shows definitively how an ancient, abiding and often murderous hatred, antisemitism, has found, in recent decades, a new and politically-acceptable, even fashionable, way to attack Jews--antizionism."Walter Reich, Yitzhak Rabin Memorial Professor of International Affairs, Ethics and Human Behavior, The George Washington University, USA"David Hirsh, a leading sociologist of contemporary antisemitism, and eleven other authors at the forefront of the struggle against it show how Jews pay the price for redemption when Israel becomes the symbol of ultimate evil. Their book is indispensable for understanding the startling revival of antisemitism in our time."Chad Alan Goldberg, Martindale-Bascom Professor of Sociology, University of Wisconsin–Madison, USA; award-winning author of Citizens and Paupers: Relief, Rights, Race, from the Freedmen’s Bureau to Workfare (2008) and Modernity and the Jews in Western Social Thought (2017)Table of Contents(i) First Preface: Esprit d’escalier: reminiscences of a silent observer of the UCU conference (ii) Second Preface: I guess it doesn't matter any more (iii) Introduction 1.

Book SynopsisThis book interrogates the white savior industrial complex by exploring how America continues to present an imagined Africa as a space for its salvation in the 21st century.Through close readings of multiple mediated sites where Americans imagine Africa, White Saviorism and Popular Culture examines how an era of new media technologies is reshaping encounters between Africans and westerners in the 21st century, especially as Africans living and experiencing the consequences of western imaginings are also mobilizing the same mediated spaces. Kathryn Mathers emphasizes that the articulation of different forms of humanitarian engagement between America and Africa marks the necessity to interrogate the white savior industrial complex and the ways Africa is being asked to fulfill American needs as life in the United States becomes increasingly intolerable for Black Americans.

Taylor & Francis Kendrick Lamar and the Making of Black Meaning

15 in stock

Book SynopsisKendrick Lamar has established himself at the forefront of contemporary hip-hop culture. Artistically adventurous and socially conscious, he has been unapologetic in using his art form, rap music, to address issues affecting black lives while also exploring subjects fundamental to the human experience, such as religious belief. This book is the first to provide an interdisciplinary academic analysis of the impact of Lamarâs corpus. In doing so, it highlights how Lamarâs music reflects current tensions that are keenly felt when dealing with the subjects of race, religion and politics. Starting with Section 80 and ending with DAMN., this book deals with each of Lamarâs four major projects in turn. A panel of academics, journalists and hip-hop practitioners show how religion, in particular black spiritualties, take a front-and-center role in his work. They also observe that his astute and biting thoughts on race and culture may come from an African American perspective, but many find something familiar in Lamarâs lyrical testimony across great chasms of social and geographical difference.This sophisticated exploration of one of popular cultureâs emerging icons reveals a complex and multi faceted engagement with religion, faith, race, art and culture. As such, it will be vital reading for anyone working in religious, African American and hip-hop studies, as well as scholars of music, media and popular culture.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements; Introduction: K.Dotting the American Cultural Landscape with Black Meaning- Anthony B.

Taylor & Francis Crosscurrents in Australian First Nations and

15 in stock

Book SynopsisThis edited collection examines art resulting from cross-cultural interactions between Australian First Nations and non-Indigenous people, from the British invasion to today. Focusing on themes of collaboration and dialogue, the book includes two conversations between First Nations and non-Indigenous authors and an historianâs self-reflexive account of mediating between traditional owners and an international art auction house to repatriate art. There are studies of âreverse appropriationâ by early nineteenth-century Aboriginal carvers of tourist artefacts and the production of enigmatic toa. Cross-cultural dialogue is traced from the post-war period to âAboriginalismâ in design and the First Nations fashion industry of today. Transculturation, conceptualism, and collaboration are contextualised in the 1980s, a pivotal decade for the growth of collaborative First Nations exhibitions. Within the current circumstances of political protest in photographic portraiture and againstTrade Review‘Truth-telling and reconciliation between First Nations and those who have since arrived has become the priority for all Australians, in all aspects of our lives and work. Awareness of this fact has been two centuries, and more, in the making. Indigenous art has been crucial to this development. It is a vivid evocation of a sovereign culture, an offering to fellow Australians and the wider world. Non-Indigenous artists, curators and critics have responded in a variety of ways. The complexities of these exchanges are explored in unprecedented depth and detail in this book. There are fascinating chapters on the experiences of first nations artists and curators, given in their own voices. A precise profile of the life and art of William Barak in Coranderrk in the 1880s and 1890s is woven into an account of the recent sale of one of his works in New York. Interactions between Conceptual artists and leading Papunya painters during the 1980s are explored as are several recent examples of collaborative art making, exhibition curating, and fashion design. The challenges, and the triumphs, of transcultural exchange are on vivid display.’Terry Smith, Emeritus Professor of Art History, University of Sydney, Australia.Table of ContentsIntroduction1.
