There were very few books that spoke to their issues or reflected their experience so I decided I needed to write a book that would be of interest to these young people. (less)

I remember when I had my ultrasound for o

Nancy and 76 other people liked Paul Bryant's review of The Grass Is Singing:
The Grass Is Singing by Doris Lessing
"There should be a few warnings on the cover of this short novel : contains no likeable characters and many descriptions of really disgusting racist behaviour. I can’t remember reading so much intimate detail about the white racist’s seething physical" Read more of this review »
Nancy and 101 other people liked Bionic Jean's review of The Grass Is Singing:
The Grass Is Singing by Doris Lessing
"The Grass is Singing is Doris Lessing's first novel, published in 1950. It is a savage and stark indictment of South Africa's apartheid system. It is set in what was formerly Southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, and concentrates on Rhodesian white cultur" Read more of this review »

Frank McCourt
“Sing your song. Dance your dance. Tell your tale.”
Frank McCourt, Angela's Ashes

Erwin Schrödinger
“No self is of itself alone. It has a long chain of intellectual ancestors. The "I" is chained to ancestry by many factors… This is not mere allegory, but an eternal memory.”
Erwin Schrödinger

James W. Loewen
“Ironically, Adolf Hitler displayed more knowledge of how we treated Native Americans than American high schoolers today who rely on their textbooks. Hitler admired our concentration camps for American Indians in the west and according to John Toland, his biographer, “often praised to his inner circle the efficiency of America’s extermination—by starvation and uneven combat” as the model for his extermination of Jews and Gypsies (Rom people).94”
James W. Loewen, Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong
